I have installed transmission on a headless server. I am using transmission-daemon and connects to the webclient on the LAN. However from WAN I can't connect. I have forwarded port 9091 in my router and it connects with the server, but I get 403: Forbidden.
Here is my settings.json file:

I've tried the following in rc.local but it gets me nowhere:
Code:
TRANSMISSION_TIMING() {
for((a=0;a<=5;a++)); do
sleep 1 &
wait
[[ $(top -n1 | grep transmission) == *transmission* ]] &&
[[ $(date +%H) -ge 5 ]] && [[ $(date +%H) -lt 23 ]] && /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop done
}
TRANSMISSION_TIMING &
Code:
TRANSMISSION_TIMING() {
[[ $(top -n1 | grep transmission) == *transmission* ]] &&
[[ $(date +%H) -ge 5 ]] && [[ $(date +%H) -lt 23 ]] && /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop
}
TRANSMISSION_TIMING &
Nothing I do can keep this thing from launching, and apparently kill it either.

how to setup transmission-daemon web interface on port 9091?
I did: sudo apt-get install transmission-daemon
On the same PC (as transmission-daemon) I tried http://127.0.0.1:9091/ but is not working. Why is not working out of the box ?

I've installed transmission-daemon on my headless Ubuntu 11.04 server and use the web interface to manage it. This is all working fine. However, after a reboot it seems that transmission daemon starts but the webinterface is unavailable. I get this in the syslog after a reboot:
Code:
Jun 22 10:54:27 localhost transmission-daemon[703]: Transmission 2.31 (12441) started (session.c:706)

The config file is ambiguous, and keeps getting overwritten when you restart the daemon in Debian, anyway.
In /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json, there are these options:
rpc-username
rpc-password
proxy-auth-username
proxy-auth-password
Every time I restart the daemon with:
/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon restart
It overwrites rpc-password, and the password it prints doesn't work anyway.
Does anyone know how to set the password properly? I don't want to disable it.

I would like to be able to simply run a shortcut file or batch file in a windows os to start or stop my transmission-daemon.I was thinking about using putty to auto login and execute a file using the -m switch. A problem I am running into is that /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stoprequires the use of sudo.That would require entering a password which would be automated and insecure or would require manually typing int he password.

I have the Shorewall firewall running on Ubuntu 10.10 server and the issue I am having is the firewall is blocking traffic from my transmission-daemon even though I have allowed it in the /etc/shorewall/rules.
the rules file has the following lines
Code:
ACCEPT$FWnettcp60000:60035
ACCEPTnet$FWtcp60000:60035
ACCEPT$FWnetudp51413
ACCEPTnet$FWudp51413
[Code]...
as you can see, Shorewall is rejecting packets with source and destination port 51413 on incoming net2fw and outgoing fw2net even though the rules are set to accept.

Is there a way to inhibit Transmission at times when a user is active and only have it downloading/seeding when the computer is idle (or is there another Torrent client that will do so)? I know about the limits that can be set, but those are clock based, not activity based limitations. As it is now, when it is running, my web browsing speed and other online activities take a big hit in responsiveness. I want to be responsible and seed completed downloads. However, the performance hit makes it difficult to tolerate, and manually pausing and resuming torrents every time I sit down at the computer or get up to leave is inconvenient.

I can only access the Transmission web interface while the Transmission-gtk client is running. When I close it, the web interface is no longer available. I try to manually start the transmission-daemon, but the process never shows up as running.

I want to start a daemon as another user, but it doesn't seem to work. What I'm trying to do is run svnserve (subversion server) as the apache user.
The following works, but it's run as the root user in this case
Code:
svnserve -d -r /var/www/svn --pid-file /var/run/svnserve.pid
Trying to run as apache user doesn't work
Code:
su apache -c "svnserve -d -r /var/www/svn --pid-file /var/run/svnserve.pid"

after some tweaking i managed to get nessus installed on my machine. However i'm running into an issue when trying to add a user.The nessus daemon is running on my machine, i've registered. I think everything is peachy in that regard, but when i run:
Code:
zachadmin@ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/nessusd restart
$Shutting down Nessus : .
$Starting Nessus : .[code].....
Obviously the command not found is my error, from what i understand there isn't a default user placed in the first time.So essentially i have thie program installed, but i can't access it.

I am working with NS-2, I am facing a situation where I need to re align the transmission range of a particular node. Can I do this by modifying the protocol's source code? I should not change the default value from 250, only few nodes who satisfy a particular criterion should be reset to some other range like 200 or 300. How can I do this?

I'm new to Fedora and have just purchased a subscription to a GoDaddy Virtual Dedicated Server, which I'm able to control using SSH.I have a Java application that I want to run as a daemon on this VDS. Some google searching yielded a bunch of different methods of doing this, none of which I'm sure would be guaranteed to work with Fedora, so I was hoping someone here could give it to me straight and fill me in on the simplest way of doing this.What is the best/simplest way to run a Java application as a daemon on Fedora?

I was trying to get a daemon to load on boot, I stupidly added it to rc.local and it just hangs. I would love to put in a live CD and edit out the line but the volume is encrypted and I cannot get it to mount.
Is there a way I can cancel the daemon from loading or get to the grub menu (not readily visible since I am single boot) and then boot into a console?

I've been trying to get my internal microphone to work in F12, and as part of the things I've tried I had the seemingly bad idea of reinstalling pulseaudio. The problem now is that pulseaudio fails to start... The following is from /var/log/messages, and is repeated several times:Code:Nov 24 08:51:20 localhost pulseaudio[6300]: main.c: Daemon startup without any loaded modules, refusing to work.

I'm having trouble booting after a recent bunch of updates (haven't been able to boot F12 from hard disk for a couple of days).

My sample rates are out of whack and I need to edit the daemon.conf file.
However if I use
Code:
It will open the file but will not let me edit at all. If I just navigate to it I can edit it, but I can not save it!
I tried going in as root from the terminal and using the code above and I get a weird error.
Something like:
Then it says core dump.
Am I missing something to be able to edit the daemon.conf ?

I have a strange problem on RHEL 5.4.
I have created a daemon which is being run as a system service at boot, and the start command goes well. When I login after boot and check with
service name status
it says it's running and the daemon accepts requests from clients in the network, only the executable it runs as a response to a client request does not work properly.
If I manually restart the service, as with service name restart everything works OK until the next system reboot.
Somehow the context in which the daemon runs is not OK after boot, and it becomes OK after manual restart.
