Description
This contribution for SME Server adds the ability to seed or to download SME Server CDROM ISO trough the Bit-torrent protocol.
Requirements
You need to activate two repositories, geekery which hosts Transmission binaries and stephdl.
Installation
This contrib is currently held in several repository, so the following commands will install on your smeserver.
yum --enablerepo=geekery,stephdl install smeserver-transmission
You will then need to activate the database changes etc. The 'official' way is to perform
signal-event post-upgrade; signal-event reboot
or if you do NOT want to reboot your server
signal-event conf-transmission
Login to transmission
The url to reach the transmission is https:sme-ip-or-host/transmission Just after the installation, only the admin user is allowed to perform a login with its SME Server credentials.
Add users
If you want to allow more users to transmission
config setprop transmission Transuser "admin user1 user2" signal-event conf-transmission
All users need to be real users in the server-manager with a password set
Add groups
If you want to allow more groups to transmission
config setprop transmission Transgroup "group1 group2 group3" signal-event conf-transmission
All groups need to be real groups in the server-manager with a password set
change the default url
By default transmission is reachable at https:sme-ip-or-host/transmission but if you want to change this
config setprop transmission Name XXXXX signal-event conf-transmission
then you need to go to https:sme-ip-or-host/XXXXX
Disable the access (web/samba) to Transmission
If you want to close all your users access to the transmission contrib by web or by samba you can perform this. But this do not stop the transmission daemon

You can browse all your downloads either by samba, or by your browser (by default only on your local network)
=By samba
only the admin is allowed to browse your download with samba, you you want to add more users or groups
config setprop transmission Smbusers "admin user1 user2 @group1 @group2" signal-event conf-transmission
In the smb.conf a group is called by "@", do not forget to add it if you want to allow group1 : @group1 Then you can browse all samba shares of your server, find the transmission share and perform a login with your credentials.
