One of the most enjoyable benefits to have its own server might come from the ease to download any torrents (Especially some free GNU/Linux distribution) through a nice web interface accessible anywhere and then just go home and have your torrents waiting for you.

The 3 most popular torrents clients with Web Interface are Deluge, Rtorrent and Transmission. Let me tell you what are my preferences.

In a Terminal, enter the following, replacing server with the public IP of your server. Ssh -fNL 127.0.0.2:58846:localhost:58846 server Note: We use 127.0.0.2 instead of localhost so that Deluge client knows that we are connecting to a remote daemon.

1) Deluge Torrent:

Deluge Torrent is for me the best compromise between a very powerful torrent client (like Rtorrent) and a very simple torrent client (Like Transmission).

Deluge’s performance is very good as I used to seeds 3000+ torrents of Creative Commons content (From Joomla) when I was promoting .ogg files on the platform, with a fancy web interface, good support and yet easy to install and configure.

Being open source allows anyone to check if the software has no malicious code, is secure and respects privacy.

Rtorrent is for me the most powerful torrent client: Powerful command line interface, can handle 5000+ torrents, with several possible web interfaces as Wtorrent or Rutorrent for my 2 favorites, with multi user support, etc… but can be difficult to install…

3) Transmission Bitorrent
Transmission is for me the safe one, easy to install quite powerful and good enough (Nice command line interface, good Web UI, …) but a bit too simple with not enough options.

Deluge is basically my favourite client for either Server or Desktop on either Linux, Windows or even Mac and here is how to install it on your server.

Installation

As root user (su) type:

and accept the dependencies.

This will install the 1.3.3.2 version at this date on my Debian Stable system.

Configuration

To improve a bit the security and be more flexible, it’s better to create a dedicated deluge user to run this service and its dedicated log files. Still using root user (su), type:

and create deluge configuration file: (Still in root)

and copy/paste the following configuration:

And save (Using CTRL+X, then Y)

Now, create the Init script to be able to start/stop the daemon easily with the configuration you

and copy/paste:

It will use the port 9092 in this case and thus you will have to open it into your router configuration to allow inbound connection. (Change the line 25 if you want to modify the port)

Then, make this script executable: (Still as root user)
