What's up with trackers???--plz read :)

[jedi0424]

Hi

I'm relatively new to Bit-torrent technology and find Utorrent to be the best client for me....However, I'm a little confused as to how to seed from an "outside" source

Normally, after I finish downloading a file, it starts seeding using the tracker announcements that came with it

Yesterday, in the interests of saving space/speeding up my computer, I moved most of my video files to an external hard-drive......

Obviously, the torrents didn't seed anymore because the file path had changed......so I deleted the torrent files without copying the appropriate tracker information......

So......my question is......when I make a new torrent file what do I put for tracker information??? A bit-torrent is only as good as how many seeds it has, and I'd like to do my best to contribute to the file sharing cause, rather than leeching .........

Thanx+hope to hear from you soon,

If you want to interface with the existing old torrent on a tracker, you have to download that .torrent file again if you lost it.
