To access the Temp directory you would need to have root access through ssh. but if you enable root access this will void your software technical support.

I need to change the tracker to my current bittorent, because my current torrent has no seeders.

It's possible?

Thanks

There is no way to change the tracker except loading a new .torrent right now.

You can access the temp directory by mapping to the 'c' share as the admin user. //nas/c/.bittorrent/

This is not clear.
How can I do this in windows?

From My Computer, goto the Tools Menu and choose Map Network Drive.
From there, you can change the username that it connects as, as seen in the screenshot below.

For the folder use \\nas\c, then use the Connect As with your admin login.

Um, in Windows you actually need to connect to the share at:

\\[your ReadyNAS name or IP here]\c\.bittorrent, choosing alternate user name admin and your [FrontView admin password].

It's them slashes versus backslashes.....


I just connected via a Win2K machine :thumbsup: , didn't work with the share slashes the other way.

What security mode is your NAS in? Do you have snapshots enabled?

In the latest beta (and in the next public release):
Fixed root volume share not being made available in Domain security mode or when snapshot is enabled.

You'll need to be in User or Domain security mode to access the "c" volume share as "admin" user.
