I installed this script on my new server, right now I have no idea where is the configuration file of it. http://imgur.com/a/de7CO (i need to modify the default connections, like set it to -1 and set the global limits to 0).

Hi.

The default location for rtorrent config file (for you) is: /home/karlo/.rtorrent.rc

Feel free to ask if you need more help.

Hello,

Thank you so much! I am having seeding issues because of the limitations set by default, which is I think by your script. Is there a way to optimize those settings? Every time I refresh the page or logout of ruTorrent, the settings goes back to the default. For my server's hardware, it's here http://www.online.net/en/dedicated-server/dedibox-xc

Thanks.

Totally not my script; haha. I'm just a user like you.

I'm actually using the same box as you with 4 friends on it. The default works fine for me, however this article will tell you more about adjusting (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/RTorrent#Performance). To get persistent changes you may have to edit that .rtorrent.rc file and then run ~/restartSeedbox . rutorrent settings (the web front end) must not be persistent.

Again feel free to ask more.

Oh sorry. I thought you were the owner. You are using XC as well? From online.net? I was using the SC server with them a month ago, then I decided not to continue with it because I'm planning to transfer to Kimsufi. Apparently, the validation of IDs and stuff like that takes more than a week. I can't buy a seedbox from the usual providers because they are being shared to other users. That is why I decided to give online.net a try again. And wow! I am so satisfied now. The XC server is like 19 euros and I only got it for 16. I think it's because they removed the VAT or something. Oh yeah, did you change the network settings of your rTorrent too?

I don't think I changed any network settings sorry.

No worries. By the way, I am trying to share the following script via GitHub for Desktop. It says I don't have the permission for this GitHub. https://gist.github.com/ItsAdventureTime/417bf16c4de8dd4d2bab
