Enhanced CTorrent

[madseh]

Hi,


someone already has compiled the Enhanced CTorrent
http://www.rahul.net/dholmes/ctorrent/
for use with Olegs firmware?

thx
Matthias

[ros]

is it possible to install ctorrent to flash or must it be installed to USB memory?

[oleo]

ctorrent, libstdc++, openssl ocupies
172K ctorrent-1.3.4-ipk/
3,6M openssl-0.9.7d-ipk/
216K libuclibc++-0.1.12-ipk/
3,9M total

[britnet]

what oleo means is: its to big for flash :cool:

Lower than 20KB/sec download performance with Enhanced-Ctorrent and the wl500g?

Here some practical tips: (which help a lot!)

-C cache_size (default 16MB, make it 0MB otherwise it
chokes your poor USB 1.1 bus every
few seconds!!!)

-M max_peers (the lower the number of peers the more
memory is saved, but it will lower
performance. It's not possible to go
lower than 20. Try to find the best
number by increasing the number bit by
bit. e.g. start with 20 than 30, 40 etc.)

-m min_peers (Make this 1 if you use -M switch. Has no
effect on the download rate.)

-D rate (Download rate. Is more dependent
of the other parameters used here.
Thus has little effect)

-U rate (Upload rate. increasing it doesn't
consume memory. Don't go to the max
because it will decrease the download
rate. let's say 70% of you max up)

-z slice_size I have no experience with this
parameter. I guess it will have little
effect.

The other parameters have no effect on download speed.

First time users can use following reserved example: (assuming port 2106 is opened in the firewall)

enhanced-ctorrent -e 0 -E 1.5 -p 2106 -C 0 -M 30 -m 1 -D 80 -U 30 xxxxxxxxxx.torrent

If the speed is still low start with increasing the value of the -M switchs in steps of 10.


I hope this helps....

But install enhanced-ctorrent it is more developed - e.g. does not have 2 GB file limit. Very simple:


ipkg install enhanced-ctorrent

[petertn]

how can i install enhanced-ctorrent on asus wl-500gP?
i have instal ctorrent and it is ok, but download torrent is 0kbps
when i install enhanced-ctorrent i can not activate enhanced-ctorrent
Please help me, i have read http://www.macsat.com/macsat/content/view/34/30/ but it is not work
As usual, if you are installing to /opt, you need to run my optlibs.sh script:
optlibs.sh - i don't undretand what can i do? this script is where?

[karlunge]

i followed this:
http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=5909
instructions and used: enhanced-ctorrent instead of ctorrent.

when i start ctorrent i use this commandline:

enhanced-ctorrent -C 0 -M 25 -U 15 torrentfile.torrent

-C 0 disables the harddrivecache
-M 20 maximum of 20 peers
-U 25 Upload-limit: 25kb/s
-f if i want to seed the downloaded torrent

http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=6161&highlight=ctorrent

maybe you have to choose another port if your provider is blocking the torrent-ports:
-p 50035 -> use a port above 50000 (use for each torrent another port)

this works fine for me, but you have to choose a torrent with enough seeders to make it rock. sometimes you'll have to wait a little time.

have a look on:
http://www.rahul.net/dholmes/ctorrent/
to understand the statusline-output

for multiple sessions (seeding/leeching) i use screen.
it works fine, but i have to reboot from time to time, because the router does not respond any more

greetings
karlunge

[petertn]

karlunge: thanks its work, with reboot you have true i must reboot too. Why?I have swap on and processes are good when ctorrent finish control of torrent files.
What is wrong?

Well it looks like the enhanced ctorrent binary fixed the size_t problem by using uint64 integer type-cool. Is it possible to simply ftp the enhanced ctorrent binary to the 700 running an othewise stock 1046 asus firmware?

As I read the sources it appears that the original ctorrent and enhanced ctorrent are command line compatible except for 1 command line parameter which was -B rate which was changed to -D/E rate. So unless the asus firmware tries to use this command line switch shouldnt the enhanced ctorrent plug and play with download master???

Here hoping.

Maybe I will try tonight if I can extract the binary from the custom firmware, and figure out how to ftp/copy the binary to the router after making a backup of the original......

Have anybody any idea about a web interface for the enhanced-ctorrent ?

The v2.3 works great with KC's firmware on my box, but unfortunately only from 'screen'.

I almost found a nice and easy interface on the folowing page : http://sctcs.seaky.hu/ but it isn't working for me... maybe i missed something
:o

Please help!

Thanks for the fast reply Sollie. I read the list but I don't understood too much... maybe my linux experience is very poor and I don't speak well German.

so, is there any step-by-step instruction for making this installation ?

Thanks, Kopaxi

[sollie]

Its using a webserver + PHP Support. So i advice to install lighttpd and php first. Make it working.

Is that true for the Ctorrent has a 2GB file download limit ?
Can anyone help If I want to download more then 2GB, how ???:mad:

I am using FTP to upload a file ( 4.3GB ) to the USB-HD (From LAN to Router),but the file stop at 1.99GB, how to fix the problem ?? :confused: :confused:

Using : Asus WL-500gp, WinXP , USB-HD:250GB (SATA) with Exet3 format , 1.9.2.7-7f firmware

[al37919]

AFAIK, it is limitation of built in stupid-ftpd. Use samba or vsftpd or, possibly scp (ssh file transfer).

[charming]

Use Enhance-Ctorrent (SCTCS) or Transmission.

Unfortunetly i still got problems with ctorrent, when i upload a torrent file to source nothin happens i even dont see it in queue via cgi/webpage.

[tmota]

Hi, I have installed CTorrent on my router and its working perfectly. What's your difficulty?

I presume that you have started with /opt/etc/init.d/S90sctcs start
and you have configured /opt/etc/sctcs.conf with ur SCTCS_DOWNLOAD and SCTCS_TORRENTS correct paths

im using tansmission.cgi script to control torrent
did u set any port forwarding on router ??

I just installed the CTorrent and changed my port on the /opt/etc/sctcs.conf file. Didn't add any ports on the router.




i got very low transfer
dont know the reason

how to install SCTCS ???

I also have low transfer , I think the maximum that I got so far was 40 KB/s, while with other P2P installed on my computer I can get more than 100KB/s easily. Maybe if i add a few ports it will solve the problem. The PDF file has all the information that you need in order to install CTorrent.

[redsector]

all my torrents were stopped
so i dongrade enhanced torrent to 2.3
now i have status checking but still no trasnfer at all
reaelly dont know what could be the reason

[redsector]

DONE !
first i deleted all port forwarding in vurtual server
but download wont start so i started it by hand from coommand line eg. enhanced-torrent yourfile.torrent
and then all torrent in SCTSC started to download now its donloading even after reboot just haveto add S90sctcs to post-boot to start automatically

second even if it started transfer was very low so i set up again port forwarding in virtual serwer no download is even 80 KB

some torrents are still in status checking dont know what to do with that but

I’m slow to. Can you help me?

Ctorrent is passive, but utorrent from PC is activ. ASUS is configured as WiFi clients and through WiFi is connected to Internet. I assume add port in Virtual server and probably modify rules on Firewall. Where is number of port(for torent) on CTorrent configuration files
What is necessary to change ?

The only port that you can change on CTorrent is the one that you access from the web (e.g. http://192.168.1.1:port_number). I think that you can only change the port for the torrent in the router configuration. in virtual server section.

Hi:

I followed this guide:

http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=5909

to install ctorrent. I'm using oleg's 1.9.2.7-7g firmware version.

Now the problems:

i could not get access to the http://192.168.1.1:8008/cgi-bin/torrent.cgi webpage (got an error)

Then after looking at the /usr/local/sbin/post-mount i noticed that i did not had the /usr/sbin/busybox_httpd executable file. After looking at the torrent ipkg info, i found out that there was a /opt/etc/init.d/S80busybox_httpd executable file.

So i replaced my post-mount file with the following:
#!/bin/sh
/opt/etc/init.d/S80busybox_httpd -p 8008 -h /opt/share/www


After saving the flash and reboot, still no success. So i tried to rund from ther telnet session the S80busybox_httpd executable and it outputted a message with the following options:
Usage: /opt/etc/init.d/S80busybox_httpd (start|stop|restart)

So i did the start option :D

i now have access to the http://192.168.1.1:8008/cgi-bin/torrent.cgi, but not everything is ok (some links don't work)

So, ho can i get the correct busybox_http?

Or how can i put this one working correctly?

Hi:

is there anyway to limit the upload speed on ctorrent?

Yes, i know transmission can do this, but i can't get it working :(

[avberk]

don't know about ctorrent, but with enhanced-ctorrent you can. Use the -U switch

e.g. -U 35

to limit the upload to 35KB/sec

[jrosado]

Thanks. I managed to put transmission working ;)

[Rui_Carlos]

I put the torrent directory in '/opt/home/share' and now the links in the web interface for 'source', etc. doesn't work. How can I solve this? Should I move the folder to '/opt/share'?

Can I limit the connection speed?
Can I schedule the connection speed limits?




Sorry by bad english :rolleyes:

Found this interesting web interface for enhanced-ctorrent which enables you to manage your Bittorrent downloads.

Torrential uses Appweb as a webserver and needs enhanced c-torrent latest version dnh3.1-9.

1st install Enhanced c-torrent:
ipk-opt update
ipkg-opt install enhanced-ctorrent

2nd install Appweb
ipkg-opt install appweb
Run appweb: /opt/etc/init.d/S81appweb
reboot

3rd download torrential.zip on link: http://oz4.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/07/torrential.zip
Then unzip file with Winzip or Winrar and put the extracted files in the Appweb web folder /opt/var/appWeb/web/torrential through WINSCP or FTP whatever you prefer. After this use command: chmod 777 /opt/var/appWeb/web/torrential to enable the application to open the subdirectory.

Now you can configure Torrential by changing the inc_config.php in directory /opt/var/appWeb/web/torrential. Do this with vi or nano editor. If everything works OK you can also do it through the web interface http://ASUSWL700GE-ip:7777/torrential/index.php.

Most important are the login, password and directories where to put the torrent files and access the enhanced-ctorrent client. Make sure that the directories are accessible by everyone with chmod 777 /directory/subdirectory/

Finally reboot and start downloading!

The Torrential webinterface is accessible through your browser. I found out that Firefox works better than IE 7. If somehow your browser cannot access it might help to clear cache through internet options.
