GimmeThoseBits Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Ok, I saw a post similar to this on here, but it was in an attempt to speed up a DL by using two simultaneous clients to DL one torrent.What I'm wondering, is it possible to use two clients at different times, to get one torrent.For example: I have a machine that dual boots into Windows 7 and Ubuntu. I'm using uTorrent on Win7 and Transmission on Ubuntu. Is it possible to run a torrent program in whatever OS i'm currently using, and have it work on one common set of torrents.Example: I'm in Ubuntu and I start some torrents and run them for a while. Later I need to do something in Windows, so I restart and boot into Win7. I'm working in windows for a few hours so I start up uTorrent and have it pick up where Ubuntu/Transmission left off and finish up those torrents.Is this possible? Does it make a difference if both clients are uTorrent vs. Transmission?thanks for any adviceBTW I do have Ubuntu reading/writing to the NTFS partition that Win7 is on, so that's where I would put all this torrent data.

schnurlos Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 Easiest way would be to run uTorrent on both systems ...Here are some infos for Linux: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=28869Otherwise you have to follow http://www.utorrent.com/documentation/migrate each time you change the OS.
