rtorrent-flood - How does the web ui connect to rtorrent?

[windowsrefund]

When firing up the web interface, the user is presented with the "rTorrent Connection Type" dialog with TCP and Unix Socket options

What is the current expectation/assumption being made here in terms of workflow?

Thanks in advance

Hi @windowsrefund, I believe you need to select "Unix Socket" as the connection type and use the value /tmp/rtorrent.sock as shown below:

There is probably a better way to script or automate this but I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

Thank you very much.
