Added on August 10, 2007, 3:30 pmstep by step instructions for what? linux or deluge?
if you already have a common disto of linux all you have to do is download the deb or rpm file. run it and its there.
if you want step by step guides to install linux, there are tones of tutorials online. like i said before, i recommend ubuntu. the least painless of them all.

Heh. I think they can read the packets alright since it's still using the standard bittorrent protocol.
Deluge and ktorrent are using the same encryption method as azureus/bitcomet/utorrent or they wouldn't be able to communicate with those clients when encryption is enabled/forced.

Since the other clients are already having throttling issues, it is very probable that deluge and ktorrent can be blocked if and when they choose to.

Anyways, what I want to say is that do not be surprised when this is blocked too.



Conspiracy theory:
Could it be the linux only clients have not be blocked due to screamyx employees using these to bypass the throttling?
Note that the other linux java client that can also run on windows is throttled.

updated, been getting 50-110 kBps
so i guess it's all about the torrent, seeder, leecher and so on,
not the port setting

thx TS for showing deluge,
before this, i don't really boot up my ubuntu cos i don't really need it
now i do

hey praveenmarkandu

i tried to forward the ports used in deluge,when i click the "test active port"

it shows the TCP is closed,but UDP is opened.

Am i forwarding the ports correctly?

probably not. but then again, its hard to say. deluge is a pretty new program and there are some kinks. for example my Active Port was set to 0 a few times for some reason.
make sure both UDP and TCP ports are forwarded on your router. dont know about other touters but DLink can do this

Two things to check here.
1. Make sure the port forwarding settings on your router (if your using one) is set to Both TCP and UDP instead of just UDP.
2. Set rules on iptables (linux firewall) to allow connections thru the port you choose.

I did. But now the speed is down to 10-20kbps, i dunno why, haven't change any setting.. I did however got to 90kbps using ktorrent but also for a short while.

Well is installing linux same as window xp? I mean the way install it? Does duo core e4400 support it? Coz mine not supporting window xp sp 1, only can install xp 2. I planning install linux in the same hdd as my window but different partition, So can or not? How bout anti virus? need install 1 more in linux OS? I really wanna try deluge.. Lolz. Sory for my noob question. And Ktorrent is for window? Coz i deno got OS name KDE. lolz.

yup,i forwarded both




how do i do that?

meanwhile,am i doing it rite with this?

http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#...8Firestarter.29

Install firestarter if you'r a GUI person.
Press on the Disable Firewall button and then check if the port is open on Deluge.
If it is, this means you will need to add firewall rules to allow data thru the port. Or you may want to disable the firewall totally since your behind a router.

Hint:
It's under the Policy tab. Add rule for inbound.
Btw, you can go to Events tab and refresh to check if there are any blocked connections. Right clicking on the blocked connections can allow you to unblock it.

You may want to look into wubi to help you install Ubuntu on windows if you're afraid to screw up the installation.

Regarding antivirus. Linux have their own antivirus too.

Ktorrent is currently for linux only. No news that they are porting over to windows.

KDE is a GUI for linux. Ubuntu is using Gnome for the GUI but you can install kde libraries on it too.

http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#...ry_.28Stable.29

Run the second line listed there before installing the deluge package.


http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy-backports/net/deluge-torrent
List of packages required to run deluge torrent. Make sure all of them are installed.
You can use System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager to install the packages if you don't like using command line.

why do i keep getting this error on some torrents?

I blame this on screamyx blocking access to certain trackers. Try the same torrent on utorrent and see if you can connect to the trackers.
From my experience, some trackers are only connectable after midnite unless you're using VPN services.

At the very least, you should be getting full speed on the torrents that manages to connect to trackers.

i keep getting that error from demonoid trackers

Just wanted to let you all know that I am getting very, very good speed using Deluge. On average I get about 100kB/s if I am not browsing.

Started to use Ubuntu 7.04 a few days ago and the main purpose was to download torrent.

http://www.demonoid.com/faq.php#dut_6

Looks like the remedy is to leave the torrent on and wait for it to connect to the tracker.

i have NEVER had a problem connecting to trackers using deluge.

There's no need to be so defensive. Nobody is blaming you for anything.

Let's try to help find out what's wrong.

I have tried running Demonoid trackers torrents on different BT clients (Ktorrent, Deluge, utorrent) and have issues connecting to it.
Anyways, this only seem to happen Demonoid trackers. I do have a few running on utorrent that manages to connect after a while so probably should follow what the Demonoid FAQ says.

Anyone else wants to do some experiment to see if they can connect to Demonoid trackers?
