Transmission ( http://transmissionbt.com/ ) is, I believe, a popular choice these days, since the official BitTorrent client went closed-source a few years back. It can be run as a daemon. I also found a useful-looking thing named PHP-tracker ( http://php-tracker.org/ ).
As for actually generating the .torrent files with web seed info in them, Transmission doesn't seem to be able to do this from the command line (at least in version 2.22, which is admittedly more than six months old). It should be relatively simple to write a script to do this if necessary, though - the .torrent file format is a simple binary format ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bencode ). Of course, it's best to use established library code to work with this stuff just to be safe. I'll see if I can find some other tool. -Keshav ---- Join us in #sagemath on irc.freenode.net ! -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
