acidxp Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hi all,I use a private tracker a lot and it requires you to log into the site via the IP your are downloading on for the download to start. Doing this remotely means i can add the torrents but they will not authorize to download. As you should know it doesn't need to stay logged in (but login before the start of each new torrent) but i can not see a way to do this... Is there a way around this at all?My idea was to add it as a torrent...http://www.torrentsite.com/takelogin.php?username=acidxp&password=whateverbut this is detected as an invalid torrentURL and isn't executed.Any suggestions would be appreciated.ThanksAcidXP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pleh Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 It would be cool if uTorrent could save your login details for private trackers and then login for you it if detects that the torrent is from one of your private trackers. This is technicly possible but i dont know if ludde will add it for you :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niggaplz Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 I have a proxy on the computer that I run utorrent on, and I use that proxy for firefoxthen I won't have to worry about logging in or anything, since I have to login to dl the torrent anywaysmight not work if you're at school work or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 I doubt ludde would bother adding tracker login stuff. At this point, there's no way around this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
commie Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 there is a way....i use it for filelist...Put the following lines in a file and name it filelist.html or something (don't forget to put the url to filelist at the obvious spot). Then open it with your browser. It will open filelist every 30 seconds. If you are logged in and use cookies it should keep your computer with utorrent on it logged into filelist.Code:<iframe src="PUT LINK TO YOUR PRIVATE TRACKER WEBSITE HERE INCLUDINH HTTP IN FRONT"></iframe><script>window.setTimeout("window.location.reload(true);",(30*1000));</script>Now u can download filelist torrents from work or school and start them in utorrent using the webui. Remember that it might take a while for the torrent to start because your IP must be updated in filelist by the page above running at home. (You will probably still get the unkown IP/host error but it should disappear after a while (30 mins max I think)). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Interesting idea... but refreshing every 30 seconds is akin to hammering the server. If anything, refresh once within at least one hour, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Alderaan Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 I'm normally not overly protective of things I post but at least say you didn't make it urself but found it...http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=208208#p208208Newayz. Adjust the 30*1000 (The value is in miliseconds so 30*1000 = 30 seconds) to whatever you want. However don't forget that you login from your work/school to get the torrentfile. The tracker then registers the IP of your work/school as the one associated with your account. If the page at home only refreshes once an hour it could take up to an hour before the page at home logs and restores your home IP as the one associated with your account. All that time your torrent WON'T start. And even then the torrent won't start until it attempts to connect to the tracker again. Sadly I'm not sure what this interval is. Because if that is 30 minutes again it could take another 30 mins (with bad luck).But true... 30 seconds might be over the top. I'd suggest 15 minutes:<iframe src="PUT URL TO TORRENTSITE HERE"></iframe><script>window.setTimeout("window.location.reload(true);",(15*60*1000));</script> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopaka Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 There is a much better way to do it. Simply use the cookie box when adding a torrent.I don't know if this works on all trackers but does on bitmetv atleast. If you use firefox you find the cookies by going into functions -> properties -> privacy -> and click the show cookies button, and you get this.Then you use the names and values of these cookies in a format like this:uid=xxxxx;pass=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxand write that in the cookies box when adding the torrent.

Ultima Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 The point is that some servers log IP addresses -- using any "cookie" method or whatever won't help that if you're connecting to the tracker remotely to get the torrent. If you log in from another IP address, your home computer won't be able to connect to the tracker because the tracker thinks your new IP address is where you're connecting remotely from. And that's the point of this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
