Question about TTD tracker

[Lecher2]

I'm trying to run a very small, very specialized torrent tracker. I know the front end of TTD is powered by vBulletin. I'm curious about two things:

1. What tracking app are you using? Is it OpenTracker?

2. Is the Upload section where users can add torrents built in, or was it customized?

Although I can't answer these question per say what i can tell you is that running a tracker is not recommended to anyone asking these questions period. This is no offense to you but trackers are a black hole for illegal actors without immense security on the back end and if you have to ask whats being used you can secure your server.

Second notion I can not recommend anyone using anything this old period... If you want to know how to run a tracker I recommend doing immense research of the the pros and cons and spending the immense money to properly run a torrent tracker and decide if its for you.

What I can tell you is that it is not as simple as clicking an icon and booting up a program, I have been working for over a year to getting a running test site up for a replacement for TTD with already coded software and still haven't got a functioning place to send people to look to see if it will work!
