Firon Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 When we started our Idea Bank a few months ago, a Linux version was immediately the most requested feature, and has stayed #1 ever since. This morning, we are announcing a preview release of the first of two new products for Linux users. µTorrent Server, an alpha version available immediately for download here, is intended for users seeking a fast, commandline only BitTorrent client with remote web-based management. If you prefer a more traditional experience, rest assured we are working hard to build a full-featured GUI client.This is a native Linux port and is known to work on Ubuntu 9.10+, Debian 5+ and Fedora 12+. Others may work, but they are not officially supported. Kernel 2.6.13 or newer required. 64-bit host systems currently have some problems, so 32-bit only for now.For trackers who whitelist, the user agent is uTorrent/300B(build#)(server)The peerid is identical to the Windows 3.0 client. They share version numbers because of a common codebase.Ubuntu 10.10 x86 (27079)If you'd like to be notified of new releases, please subscribe to the release notification thread.Release NotesNative Linux port!Headless daemon with WebUI support for remote management32-bit release (requires 32-bit libraries on x64 systems)Known IssuesAuto-updates do not work yetHTTPS trackers are unsupportedBEP22 isn't supportedUnicode paths in the configurable directories will crashChangelog: Server edition-specific changes are noted below. Changes that apply to all versions of µTorrent can be found in docs/Changes.txt in the tarball.Server-specific changes are in the tarball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fl00p Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Is it possible to run with ia32-libs on Ubuntu 64bit ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Sweet, thank you so much. Finally.Too bad, no 64bit. Is it possible to run with ia32-libs on Ubuntu 64bit ?It will run with 32-bit compatibility installed, but we had some stability problems (100% CPU). Feel free to try it though; you may have better luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Failing that, consider a 32-bit chrootHad good reports of that working with other apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcdonald Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 There's a bug in the docs - the docs say to use a forward slash when specifying the LOGFILE argument (as in /LOGFILE) - the docs should say to use a dash (as in -LOGFILE).

Firon Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 We'll eventually have a 64-bit version, but there isn't one yet for the same reason the windows client is 32-bit only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krosswindz Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Any idea if a debug build can be provided so that community can help in debugging. I know that as of uTorrent is not open sourced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Civilian Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Good news! Thanks!Waiting complete x64 support, rpm/deb packages and GUI-clint for this server. I think some of forum members can make proper deb/rpm/whatever packages.The only question is where they should be posted? I've posted ebuild in troubleshoot forum but I don't think it's right place.

Gunnii Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 yes an example config file would be nice, for me it seems like my config file won't load, even if i put junk in it...this is what i have so far http://codepad.org/KgP6LicD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've posted ebuild in troubleshoot forum but I don't think it's right place.Probably under General. I'll make a sticky later and collect the packages people make. Eventually we'll probably make our own .deb, maybe rpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dieter Posted September 3, 2010 Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Hi. So, I just gave it a try and found some points that could be improved:utserver - -help should output a brief help and usage information.No Commandline-arguments at all?On Page 3 in the uTorrent_Server.pdf the Link Application Settings links to page 1 for me.Licensing Information should be included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
