BitTorrent (Deluge)
What is Deluge?
BitTorrent is a communications protocol using peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing. It is not anonymous; you should assume that others can see what files you are sharing. There are two BitTorrent web clients available in FreedomBox: Transmission and Deluge. They have similar features, but you may prefer one over the other.
Deluge is a lightweight BitTorrent client that is highly configurable. Additional functionality can be added by installing plugins.
Initial Setup
After installing Deluge, it can be accessed by pointing your browser to https://<your freedombox>/deluge. You will need to enter a password to login:
Deluge Login
The initial password is "deluge". The first time that you login, Deluge will ask if you wish to change the password. You should change it to something that is harder to guess.
Next you will be shown the connection manager. Click on the first entry (Offline - 127.0.0.1:58846). Then click "Start Daemon" to start the Deluge service that will run in the background.
Deluge Connection Manager (Offline)
Now it should say "Online". Click "Connect" to complete the setup.
Deluge Connection Manager (Online)
At this point, you are ready to begin using Deluge. You can make further changes in the Preferences, or add a torrent file or URL.
