If you're using Debian, first check and see if nTorrent is in the Apt repositories:
Code:
# apt-get install ntorrent

Okay - I just downloaded nTorrent on my laptop; it's actually, surprisingly easy to run. All you need, on your end, is to install a Java runtime environment (check in Aptitude for the standard JRE - I set up contrib and non-free repos in my /etc/apt/sources.list file).
After you download nTorrent-bin-20071220.tar.bz2, go into the directory where you downloaded it, and do the following:
Code:
To untar the package...
$ tar xjf nTorrent-bin-20071220.tar.bz2
To run it...
$ java -jar nTorrent.jar
And that's it!

If nTorrent doesn't complain when you try to run it in the CLI (without an X server started), then - evidently - it also has text-based support.
Unfortunately, I haven't messed around with HTTP-based torrent management.

nTorrent is a GUI for rTorrent, so if you only work in console mode, simply use rTorrent itself.
