Btpd is a utility for sharing files over the BitTorrent network
|
|
protocol. It runs in daemon mode, thus needing no controlling
|
|
terminal or gui. Instead, the daemon is controlled by the btcli
|
|
command line utility, or other programs capable of sending commands
|
|
and queries on the btpd control socket.
|
|
|
|
The goal is to provide a healthy alternative to the still prevailing
|
|
ftp/http servers for file distribution sites and a good BitTorrent
|
|
client for the casual user.
|
|
|
|
Features of btpd include:
|
|
* Reasonable resource usage.
|
|
* Runs in daemon mode; no need for constant terminal or gui.
|
|
* Command line interface.
|
|
* Sharing of multiple torrents in one btpd process.
|
|
* Upload and download rate limiting.
|
|
* IPv6 support.
|
|
* Multitracker support.
|
|
|
|
Btpd is very simple and easy to use. The official README (which
|
|
is located in the standard documentation directory) is small and
|
|
complete, so read it first.
