This is a somewhat peculiar community. Just stick around and you'll perfectly blend in.
You're just the latest newbie, which we all were at sometime. ;)

As Cabalo said, this is a peculiar community. It has cynics, hypocrites (hi, by the way), traders and morally upstanding (idiotic) individuals. Then there are the people that will say something to try and keep you around. :shifty:
 
Hello all, i have litteraly just signed up to this forum, and what i am about to ask is very rude of me.. Delete it or move it if you wish, but i am just hunting around for a bit of seedbox help, and i figured this is the best place for me to get it :)

I have an old iMac, which is in the corner of my room collecting dust, now i use bit torrent alot, and i am just simply wondering if you could tell me what i would do to set this computer up as a seedbox!

My main laptop i use is running windows 7, and my mac is running Leopad...

I know this should be in the seedbox section, but i will be honest in saying i signed up here, because i needed help on setting up this seedbox, and i dont really have any intention of posting for 15 days to find out something i could potentially find elsewhere? I'll stick around by all means, it's just if i can't find this out here, i will look somewhere else for that advise :P

Sorry if i sound rude,!
 
I use what but not that much :) Tbh i hate Vuze, so i will stick with uTorrent, does that have a built in web interface in it? Tbh thanks very much for all this quick info, i really appreciate it.
 
I'll let this stay, because we're not talking about seedbox providers.

A warning, I don't want to see any names of seedbox providers on this thread, it will cost you (those who post it I'll have to put them under moderation for a while).
 
To be completley honest i dont really want to go through a provider :) I'd rather do it myself even if it is a bit slower, very tempted atm just to install Windows on to my mac and going from there, thanks for letting this slip though :)
 
Old iMacs may not even run Windows. Even if yours does it uses more power on the iMac which isn't good for a computer that's supposed to run 24/7. I could have told you how to install a lighweight client (not Azureus) with web remote access. I also could have told you how to easily share the downloaded files with your windows laptop. Since you refuse to tell me what kind of computer you have I can't help you.

Bye.
 
Keep him around for what reason? I do not understand that part.

Somewhat ruins the humor of it all, but read the post I quoted; then proceed to read what group of people I considered myself in. Unno, was trying to lighten up the mood in a thread where everyone was being too serious. Never a good thing, being too serious is.

I'll now casually await you to ask me what the sentence directly previous to this one meant, after which I will link you to Star Wars on imdb.
 
Well there's nothing to "do" to set up your computer as a seedbox, in the context you're talking about it's basically just a computer that you never turn off.

So put it somewhere you aren't bothered by the fan noise, install your favourite BT client on it (probably one with some sort of WebUI or other remote control), and go nuts.

Note if you aren't using a WebUI that supports adding torrents you'd probably have to get more complicated and install an FTP server on the machine and set up a "Watch" directory in your torrent client.
 
Chill out polar, i hardly refused, i just answers somebody else's question first, and if you were gunna tell me all that anyway, why do you need to know what kind of computer i have? Lol and its the last slim iMac before the like new ultra slim ones, the latest of the white ones
 
Star wars. Good movies(except The phantom menace).
I understand what your saying.btw I wasn't trying to be rude or anything and sorry for ruining the humor of your post. :idunno:

Not necessary ;)
 
Hmmm ok fair enough, but one thing i dont understand is do the files ur uploading sit on the seedbox comp? Or are they on my main comp. because surley it would only work if they were on the seedbox comp? :) What client do you reccomend?
