[http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ rTorrent] is a console-based BitTorrent client with a focus on efficiency. This

guide describes how to set up rTorrent with XMLRPC support.

== Thanks ==

[http://www.cybel.be/ www.cybel.be]
Many Thanks to Rakshasa for the binaries which make this guide easy. I've spent weeks trying to compile these from

source with no luck.

Thanks to MoonMaker on the buffalo nas forums.

[http://buffalo.nas-central.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4407&p=42485 Rtorrent with xmlrpc-c from source]

This forum post contains lots of additional information on setting up rtorrent and ntorrent.

== Install Basics ==

As root, install the following, I'm not 100% sure if you need all of these.

<pre>$ aptitude install libsigc++-2.0-dev pkg-config comerr-dev libcurl3-openssl-dev libidn11-dev libkadm55

libkrb5-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libtool screen</pre>

== Getting the binaries ==

Log in to your linkstation and wget the binaries

XMLRPC:

<pre>$ wget http://www.cybel.be/files/with_xmlrpc/xmlrpc-c_1267svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

Libtorrent:

<pre>$ wget http://www.cybel.be/files/with_xmlrpc/libtorrent_1020svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

Rtorrent with XMLRPC-C support:

<pre>$ wget http://www.cybel.be/files/with_xmlrpc/rtorrent_1020svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

== Installation ==

Easy with .deb's, run the following as root

<pre>$ dpkg -i xmlrpc-c_1267svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

<pre>$ dpkg -i libtorrent_1020svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

<pre>$ dpkg -i rtorrent_1020svn-1_arm.deb</pre>

=== Modifying .rtorrent.rc ===

I won't bother repeating the information in the good guide

[http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.php/Set_Up_rTorrent_on_LSPro Set Up rTorrent on LSPro] for setting all the

usual settings and using screen with rtorrent.

The following needs to be added to .rtorrent.rc to setup XMLRPC-C support

<pre>scgi_port = :5000
#scgi_local = /home/torrent/rpc.socket </pre>

See the rTorrent [http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentUserGuide user guide] to learn how to work with the

rTorrent interface.

== Interfaces which use XMLRPC-C for rTorrent ==

Here's just a few of the many alternative interfaces for rtorrent once you've enabled xmlrpc-c support
