    Default Changing Password for existing Rtorrent user

    I have got a seed box up and running with not a problem thanks in part to this site. However I cannot crack how to change an existing user's password. I have web min loaded, I have tried most tutorials but nothing works. Pointers.



    I have an ubuntu 11.10 box

    If you are using lighttpd then do this:-

    First you will need to find out where your auth file is:-
    Code:
    sudo nano /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
    Find the line:
    auth.backend.htdigest.userfile = "/etc/lighttpd/.passwd"
    Have a look at your auth file.. To have a look at mine I would type:-
    Code:
    sudo nano /etc/lighttpd/.passwd
    something like
    vk2012:Authenticated Users:sdfhbasdihbfblabla2342bla
    will appear if you find the right file. Then delete the auth file and use the htdigest command to make a new auth file.

    It depends on your setup, but it will something like:-
    Code:
    sudo htdigest -c /etc/lighttpd/.passwd 'Authenticated Users' UserName
    Obviously replace UserName with the username you want to make. It will ask you to make a password and then confirm, then this is the username and password you will use from now on..

    You truly mean ruTorrent. ruTorrent is the web interface. Follow kitkatra's guide.

    rTorrent is the torrent client itself.
