Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

I am trying to install transmission on my DNS-321. I have successfully installed FFP-0.7 OABI. I am now trying to install the current version of transmission, but I am running into a problem that the tutorial doesn't cover. Mainly, I'm wondering where to get curl for OABI.
adding this to the tutorial in the beginning would be a big help to a newb (re)installing ffp and transmission on a fresh drive.
Thanks for the tip, I've updated the first post to include a download link for curl for oabi as well.
Sorry this comes a bit late, but only now I've actually seen your post :/

Transmission v2.74 is now available for all platforms from the first post.

Sounds like you are doing a "cd /ffp". That is a symbolic link to take you in and you won't be able to go higher than the ffp directory. You should be doing something like "cd /mnt/HD_a2/" or whatever is your equivalent.
This worked perfectly. Thanks heaps!

well i spent 4 days to make transmission work with dns 320l.
first off all i was going insane with fun flug 0.7-can't make ssh connection with putty- find solution with
sshd_start()
{
# need sshd user and group for priviledge separation
if ! grep '^sshd:' /etc/passwd >/dev/null; then
echo 'sshd:x:33:33:sshd:/:/bin/false' >>/etc/passwd
fi
if ! grep '^sshd:' /etc/shadow >/dev/null; then
echo 'sshd:*:9797:0:::::' >>/etc/shadow
fi
if ! grep '^sshd:' /etc/group >/dev/null; then
echo 'sshd::33:sshd' >>/etc/group
fi
# generate host keys
if [ ! -r /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_key ]; then
/ffp/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N ''
fi
if [ ! -r /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key ]; then
/ffp/bin/ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N ''
fi
if [ ! -r /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key ]; then
/ffp/bin/ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N ''
fi
if [ ! -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key ]; then
/ffp/bin/ssh-keygen -t ecdsa -f /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key -N ''
fi
chmod 700 /ffp/var/lib/sshd/
chmod 700 /ffp/etc/ssh/ssh_*
proc_start $command
sshd must have the last 3 lines for putty to work well.
then on transmission, i started with the command
transmission-daemon -g /mnt/HD/HD_a2/.transmission-daemon -f,nothing like nobody...works for me
i had all the errors like tr crypto 00000000.....etc and 403 forbidden.......

Does anyone know where I can get Transmission 2.03 for DNS-321 (and instructions on how to install it)? I've been looking around but no luck. I am currently running 2.71, but I recently joined a private tracker which only supports up to Transmission 2.03.
As far as installing it, I imagine I just do:
/ffp/start/transmission.sh stop
funpkg -u Transmission-2.74-1.tgz <--Change name to 2.03 (or whatever the file name ends up being)
/ffp/start/transmission.sh start
Thank you!
Offline
Which version of funplug are you running on the DNS-321?
Offline
I'm running fonz’s fun_plug (0.5). I used ShadowAndys's guide updated on 16th March 2010 "Updated guide to install transmission 1.92" (http://www.shadowandy.net/2009/01/trans … ns-323.htm).
Offline
I tried building Transmission 2.03, but it's too old. I get compiler errors that I'm not eager to fix.
You should talk to your tracker admin to update its client policy. Transmission 2.03 is almost 3 years old. A lot has changed since then.
Offline
@jester8562
I don't know what tracker you are on but most top end private trackers allow almost all the latest Transmission versions.
Offline
Thanks for trying. I was invited to iptorrents. I looked around and they've been on transmission 2.03 for a long time. I think they've updated for utorrent though. But since I'm running it on my NAS, I've been using transmission. According to them, any transmission past 2.03 gives incorrect statistics, which I checked and found to be true.
I'm not sure if it's okay to ask here, but if anyone has invites to a better private tracker, I would love an invite.
Again, thank you for the help!
Offline
I have access to IPTorrents and i use Transmission 2.71. No complains from them and no PM's asking me to change either. So it's either they are too lazy to update or whatever. I have access to other sites and some of them even state that Transmission 2.xx are one of the best torrent clients.
Offline
My issue with iptorrents was that even when I wasn't downloading (seeding only), my download statistic would continue to increase and so I couldn't fix my share ratio and it continue to decrease. I have since paused all of my iptorrent torrents and it's holding steady. I even tried some "freeleech" torrents to increase my ratio (as per their FAQ), but it still continued to count the download.
Offline
I don't see how that could be Transmissions fault? Shouldn't the tracker know which torrents are freeleech and not count them?

Hi KyleK,
as a uncapable person to compile a linux program , I thank you so much for your regular update.
and if you have time and wish , please compile the new version of Transmission for us.
thank you again for your past and future contribution for this community.
Offline
Transmission v2.76 is now available for all platforms from the first post.
@jester8562: I've compiled Transmission 2.03 for ffp-0.5, but I have not tested it in any way.
I still suggest you switch to a more current version of Transmission. If you suspect it to report wrong download statistics to your tracker, make a bug report at http://trac.transmissionbt.com, so the issue can actually be fixed.

Hello
I'm new to this forum, just bought my zyxel nsa310. Installed ffp 0.7 on it and transmission from packages. Works fine.
But for some reasons I need older version of transmission (2.22 or 2.33). Would this be possible to compile this for me or point me to a guide where I can learn how to compile this? Is it possible to compile the package on zyxel itself or should I have running linux on PC?
Thanks for any help.
Regards
Edit: just realized - need oabi version.
Edit2: I have found a guide on how to compile any version of transmission client and did it. Built a package, installed - works fine.
Question out of date now

OK, noob allert.
I just got my NSA320 and managed to install ffp and using slacker I think I installed Transmission.
Made all the directories I want to use and chown'd them.
When I run the: su nobody -c "transmission-deamon -f etc etc it does not start transmission, i get a msg back: No shell.
there is no settings.json file generated.
So I have two questions.
How do I check in slacker actually installed transmission? I think it did, but how do I know for sure?
What do I do to fix the No shell error?
oh yes, one more detail, after I installed ffp, I see in packages that it is running but not chrooted.
Any ideas how to fix? Thanks.
Offline
1. I'm not familiar with ffp on Zyxel NAS', Mijzelf might be of help here, but I think ffp-0.7 does not need to be chrooted. Whatever that means
2. Apparently your user "nobody" has not defined a shell. That's why 'su' is failing, and the daemon is never executed.
You can either set user nobody to have a shell ('usermod' is your friend), or you can run Transmission as any other user (even root, but I wouldn't recommend that).
Offline
Ah great, thanks Kylek.
That worked, now I get the following error:
/ffp/bin/sh: transmission-deamon: command not found
but at least something happened!
Any ideas?
Offline
What does the command "which transmission-daemon" say? If it doesn't show a concrete path to the executable, then Transmission is not installed.
You need to run the command "slacker -Ui kylek:{Transmission,curl}", then select the latest Transmission and curl packages (use cursor keys to navigate, space to select/unselect), then press Enter.
Some text should appear on screen that the packages are being downloaded and installed.
Offline
Hmm, which transmission-daemon shows /ffp/bin/transmission-daemon.
And I had already installed the latest version of Transmission.
If I now run slacker -a it shows the option reinstall Transmission-2.76-arm-1
So that should mean it is installed.
I can run the transmission.sh in the Start dir. I get back the text: Starting transmission-daemon and noting else, no errors or any other text.
Hey, if I go to my nas io address:9091, it tells me it is forbidden, as I am not on the whitelist! So that means it is running. Now I need to edit my settings.json.
OK! I can see my Transmission webinterface.
Thanks so much Kylek.
Offline
Since you were running transmission-daemon as user 'nobody', and user nobody doesn't have a proper profile set up, that means the PATH variable of 'nobody' probably didn't include /ffp/bin.
That's why the command failed.
If you specify the correct path, the error should not appear:
$ su nobody -c /ffp/bin/transmission-deamon -f ...
Offline
Yes that makes sense.
Most of it is working now, thanks.
Only thing it does not do yet is the automatic watch dir.
I have set:
"watch-dir": "/mnt/HD_a2/public/Torrents",
"watch-dir-enabled": true
And it does not do it. It does store incomplete torrents in the Incomplete dir I specified the same way.
Any ideas?
I can use it, but I have to drop the torrent files in manually, then it all works, but I wanted Transmission as it has a watched dir option.
I will keep on trying, unless you have another brilliant idea?
Offline
You're using ffp-0.7-oabi or -arm?
Does the Transmission log say anything about it?
