[19:42:41] <DWKnight> torrents typically don't seed themselves [19:43:28] <user1_> I have added 5 trackers, and they are probably the the 5 peers I see, I do know how to make a .torrent on my harddisk, but not how to make in on the webhotel? how do I seed [19:51:57] <Switeck> trackers are not peers :P [19:52:27] <Switeck> did you have your BT client recheck your data to verify it's looking in the right place for it and that the data is correct? [19:54:23] <user1_> I am very new to making .torrents, and am confused by all the definitions trackers/peers/seed/webseeds (I am 70+ years old) [19:54:50] <user1_> I do not know how to recheck [19:56:36] <Switeck> stop the torrent, and look for something like "force recheck" or "check hash" [20:05:33] <The_8472> Well, creating and distributing a torrent involves multiple steps. The .torrent file is basically just a fancy link that you can give to others. [20:06:01] <The_8472> you still have to offer to upload (seed) the data itself. the .torrent only allows other to find you, the initial seeder [20:06:18] <The_8472> so you have to leave your client running until others have downloaded it too [20:06:41] <user1_> ok ok I am listening [20:08:18] <The_8472> so, create a .torrent from your data. upload the .torrent file somewhere so others can download it. open a torrent client, open the .torrent file in the client [20:08:34] <The_8472> then point it to the existing data so it can upload the data described by the .torrent [20:08:41] <The_8472> and leave it running [20:08:55] <The_8472> then others can download the .torrent and with it the data from you (and others who already downloaded it) [20:09:29] <The_8472> your client should show a) that you have 100% of the data b) that there is 1 seed for that torrent (you) [20:09:39] <The_8472> if it doesn't something might be wrong [20:12:03] <user1_> Ok, I will test that, bye for now [20:12:06] *** user1_ has left #bittorrent [20:27:06] <charles> cool that he found #bittorrent on irc, anyway [20:34:39] *** waldorf_ has joined #bittorrent [20:56:05] *** L337hium has joined #bittorrent [20:56:15] *** L337hium has left #bittorrent [20:57:59] *** L337hium has joined #bittorrent [21:49:56] *** starcannon has joined #bittorrent [21:50:35] <starcannon> Can anyone tell me how to set my torrent client to ONLY use DHT? [21:50:37] *** GTHK has joined #bittorrent [21:51:13] <K`Tetch> depending on the client, just remove all trackers [21:51:22] <The_8472> by disabling all other trackers/peer sources [21:54:21] <starcannon> Cool, can do. I'm using Transmission [21:54:43] <starcannon> I was just wondering if there was a way to default to DHT only [21:56:32] <The_8472> well, wouldn't really make much of a difference [21:58:55] *** PN has joined #bittorrent [22:07:43] <charles> starcannon: Transmission doesn't have a button to disable all trackers. K`Tetch's suggestion would be the way to do it [22:09:09] *** ProperNoun has quit IRC [22:10:05] *** ProperNoun has joined #bittorrent [22:15:10] <starcannon> charles: nod, thanks again, I'll continue doing so.
