Is it possible to limit deluge to certain trackers?

Post by bms »

I would like to install deluge on a laboratory computer (ubuntu) in order to share scientific material with a large group of collaborators. The risk is that students in the lab will use it for other purposes. Is it possible to limit it to use only one tracker (or set of trackers)? It seems that some shared seedboxes are able to limit libtorrent to private trackers. I can't find any documentation on how to implement something like that.
Thanks in advance.

Bonjour,

Je pense que le plus simple, c'est de n'exécuter que Deluge sous un compte utilisateur différent de celui accessible par les étudiants. Le mieux est donc d'utiliser Deluge en tant que service (deamon), et d'instaurer un mot de passe d'accès au deamon.

Par contre, je ne sais plus comment faire, et je n'ai pas Deluge d'installé sur mon ordinateur actuel.

Autre suggestion : le dialogue ;) Instaurer des régles auprès des étudiants peut suffire :)


Salutations.

This is not be possible with Deluge. You could change permissions for Deluge within Ubuntu so that only superuser can use it.
