For those of you that haven't heard the term "seedbox", there are a few torrent clients out there that will run on servers. The advantage is: FAST speeds, remote control of your torrents (any computer with Internet access), no Sandvine (Comcast) problems.

I am running 2, one with regular TorrentFlux 2.3 and one with torrentflux-b4rt 1.0-beta2 The servers are quite different also:

One is shared (and running websites, databases, etc) with dedicated IP (which you must have to run), the nice thing here is that I have about 1.4 terabytes (about 1,500 MB) of hard drive storage, and no sign of filling it up anytime soon.

The other is Virtual, running only torrentflux-b4rt 1.0-beta2.

I am looking for help on a cron job that would restart any torrent that died on my TorrentFlux 2.3 box.

Thanks!
I haven't tried that, but sounds kickass! what type of server are you using? linux?
