Hi all,

I'm looking for a good web based (preferably CGI / PHP, i.e. Linux based) torrent seed box software. So far I've tried out torrentflux - but their support seems non-existent, and it doesn't work as well as Linux's own bittorrent or utorrent on my Windows PC. i.e. I can download files here which torrentflux doesn't want to download.

Another alternative is Transmission, but I simply can't get it to work on Debian or CentOS.

Can anyone else recommend something with a web interface where I can setup users, and maybe even give them quota limits (torrentflux doesn't support this) and then the users can submit (or search) torrents to download. Once the torrent is download they should be able to download the completed file(s) via HTTP/FTP to their PC.

Any suggestions?

transmission 2.00+ is quite good for this, if you need any help or advice setting it up on centos drop me a PM I wrote a bash script for centos that installs it automaticaly.

then you can just call exec commands from within a php signup page that calls another bash script that adds the users requirements user/pass to the settings.json file for the transmission-deamon and starts the transmission instance with the generated settings.json file.

You could set up uTorrent with WebUI enabled. It's a bit more complicated to set up, but it works pretty nicely.
