Linux bittorrent tracker?


Hi all,
I've been looking at setting up my own tracker, but aren't sure which tracker to set up under linux. I've looked at bnbt and easybnbt and a few others but they all seem to be aimed at windows. Any tips/links for setting this up?
Thanks.

The bittorrent client Azureus has a built in tracker that you can set up:
