Awesome automatic DIY Seedbox Script from base install!

Recently I installed my own rtorrent build on my home server, I run Debain 6.0.7 (aka squeeze). I do this a lot, I like to play with Debian a lot.

I found a cool script called Seedbox From Scratch, it installs basically everything that someone who is an avid... file downloader would need.

Basically here is a break down of what this does and how to use it.



The script removes root access, this is awesome though, it installs sudo and you can just use that.

Then installs:

• SABnzbdPLUS (Usenet downloader, arguably the best one available, no. it is the best)
• rtorrent (amazing server side client for torrenting, super customizable on the user end)
• ruTorrent (frontend http gui for rtorrent, amazing just amazing gui)
• All the other stuff you need to be safe!

To install this script, run this in a terminal or putty.

wget -N https://raw.github.com/Notos/seedbox-from-scratch/v2.1.9/seedbox-from-scratch.sh
time bash ~/seedbox-from-scratch.sh

Then follow the on screen instructions, or just hit enter until it asks you for a username and password.

Then you will be able to log in via
ruTorrent: http://server.com/rutorrent
Webmin login: http://server.com:10000
SSH: serverip:21976 (or the one you typed during setup)

To see what it made via http://server.com/seedboxInfo.php (capital I is important)

To restart the seedbox, type in terminal/putty "sh restartSeedbox"

Enjoy!
