Transmission lacks auto-downloading capabilities, and that's where Automatic comes into the picture. Similar to clients like Azureus and µTorrent, you provide an RSS feed and some filters and Automatic will grab the torrents of your choice and feed them to Transmission.

rtorrent is one of the most flexible and powerful ncurses-based clients out there. It will run on the DNS-323 with debian. To install, simply type 'apt-get install rtorrent'. However, as of 2008-02-10 this will only install version 0.6.4, which is out of date and does not support encryption.

To install 0.7.9, follow the instructions here: http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/InstallRtorrentOnDebain (thanks bzhou)
