Re: Headless Mac Torrent Download-Server? Post by chorlya » Sat Jun 20, 2009 10:17 pm I'm running transmission-daemon (TD) on Leopard for a while now, and its actually not that complicated to get up and running.
I am running a home headless server and I want it to be able to download torrents for each of the home users. I was looking at Transmission (with its transmission-remote frontend) but I don't like about it that all torrents are downloaded to a common location, since there is.

Actually, if it is a strong enough hardware, you can run any GUI application that you'd like with vnc (like I do Ktorrent and aMule on my headless Arch server).
Here's how you do it:

3. Setup the vnc startup script (so you wont need to ssh and manually activate it after the headless reboots).
Call it vnc and put it in /etc/rc.d/
Dont forget to set it up to run at startup in rc.conf
