Re: Simple BitTorrent Tracker

I've been using transmission 1.795 and noticed practically all peers are using utorrent. Sometimes bitcomet.

As settings I have to "prefer" encrypted peers. I don't know if that can be reason I'd only see utorrent peers or if it really is the clear market leader....

Also all the torrents I've used lately have more than one tracker (mostly 4-5), I assume because they want redundancy, i.e. making sure there's always an tracker somewhere live.

Lastly:

The url I've used as my tracker (i.e. your extension), will that generate a lot of traffic on my shared host?

I'm interested to know if by default a host doesn't like such trackers and if they block them by default? How could I found out if my host was blocking my tracker?

Re: Simple BitTorrent Tracker

Not all world use utorrent. Linux users and built-in routers torrents use transmission or rtorrent. They not supported multitrackers spec. Please read this spec http://www.bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0012.html

And i dont understand

The url I've used as my tracker (i.e. your extension), will that generate a lot of traffic on my shared host?

^ that's the url I entered when making my torrent. Is that correct?

My question is: Does the checking of seeds and peers not generate a lot of queries/traffic etc that a hosting company would not be happy about?

Re: Simple BitTorrent Tracker

Its depend of your hosting and count of active torrents, by tracker create very small querys.
U can watch trafic by server logs.

Tracker/Announce url depends of url-shceme using by your forum. But u always may use raw url http://keydogbb.info/extensions/fancy_t … nounce.php

But it work only with torrents added to your forum db - table torrents.
