Hello, i have suse 10 distro on 64 bit plattform
I would like to know how can i use torrents in linux???I don't have a clue for these settings.
(I'm a newbie so I need details.... : )
I would like to have these torrents:
1.www.torrentspy.com
2.www.torrentica.com
3.www.torrentreactor.net
Also , I'd like to know What p2p program should I use
to connect to a hub that from windows uses dc++???
you can use bittorrent, bittornado, azureus, etc. if you have a webserver with php and mysql, you can use torrentflux, which is a really handy application. i think the linux dc++ client is just called dc.
How Ican customize for ex. Azureus to download from specific torrent urls??Does it search throuout all torrents?So what urls do ineed to set in the configuration?
There are a few ways to start downloading torrents. One way is setup the web browser to automatically load up Azureus and start downloading the torrent. Another way is copy the link or URL and paste it in the URL box in Azureus. Azureus does have a way to access P2P servers and IRC. Really Azureus is very easy to use. If you think Azureus is hard than you are an idiot.
I suggest buying a Google Hack book to help you search for Linux topics and as well as hard to find items like torrents and several others. I recommend using BitTorrent to only download Linux distribution ISOs instead of illegal files.
I am all up for azureus. It is one of the best torrent clients I have ever seen. The one bundled with suse - ktorrent allows you a single torrent download. Where as azureus allows you multiple with all kinda graphical information.
Thanks for your help guys (thnx God i'm only stupid and not idiot *8 )]
I have one additional question :
When i don't find the rpm for 64 bit ,does an ex. i386 rpm causing me trouble
on my system or not to install it at all????
I can't find azureus x86_64.rpm anywere....Any Proposals?
P.S(I'm a little bit of self-sarcastic but never ironical)

No the i386 rpms should work. try finding the main Azureus website. (Just google Azureus)
