Thread: upload torrent from my seedbox to a new tracker

Can I upload a torrent file from "my files" from one tracker to another tracker on my seedbox? or only after i ftp download to my computer then upload to the tracker from there

nah m8 u can recreate torrent say u get file from tracker a and u wanna share with tracker b all u do is create new torrent on seedbox and put tracker b announce in then select private and piece size then create the only time it does'nt work is if u pick the same piece size as the other 1 u grabbed from tracker a u can have 2 torrents the same on 1 box going to different sites but must have different piece sizes when u create torrent ...hope this helps m8

Now I dont mind if it no longer seeds on the 1st tracker. I just need to be able to seed it on the 2nd tracker

It's like yorkshire said. You just have to create a new torrent on your seedbox with the files you want to seed, you can upload the same folder to as many trackers as you like.

Just remember that you have to create a new torrent for each tracker, you cannot edit your existing torrent and add another tracker there. This would be ratio cheating and is easily detectable.

The part I cant figure out is.. when I go to the tracker sites upload page it has a choose file button so you can add the file but that of course only goes to my local machine not my seedbox. Not sure how to even be able to add the file from the seedbox. Sorry for all the questions. I just have never done this before. Thanks for the help you guys have been giving :)

you have confused me m8 u create the torrent from within the seedbox it saves the .torrent file in your local downloads on your home pc then thats the .torrent file u upload to site then when u upped it u redownload it from site and open it with your seedbox it then checks against data already on the box then starts to seed, will pm u now m8 if thats ok

You sure you're in the right place mate? Maybe you should better be looking for rapidshare links :S

What client are you using on your box? rTorrent, uTorrent, Deluge...

my seedbox is whatbox so it only has a limited amount of clients. I am using deluge. I think I can understand the directions to add it to deluge but the part I am talking about is on the actual private tracker upload webpage itself wants the file from my local computer

so when I create the torrent in the seedbox it will create the .torrent file to my home computer then I can point to that as the upload on the tracker website?
