SHARING FILES VIA TORRENT

1

 

well… the process is quite similar to that of the previous post on how to upload torrents to a tracker/site.

you just have to know/have a few things before getting started:

1. your IP address

2. a proper client to carryout the whole process

 

Note:

*** THIS WILL ONLY WORK FOR INTERNET CONNECTION WITH A REAL IP****

 

now,

1. go to the client and select the option Create new torrent

2. select the file/folder you want to make the torrent of.2

3. in the box for the tracker type this:

http://your_ip_address:port/announce

3

 

4. check the box for private torrent and start seeding.

4

5. once these are all done, click create and save as…    button

 

6. when the torrent is created save it ( anywhere | desktop recommended as its easier to find )

 

5

6

7. to share, just give the other person your .torrent file that you have saved earlier.

you are done!

 

Warning: Using the embedded tracker requires you to have the same IP address and the same port as long as the torrent is active. This means if you use a dynamic IP and randomized port and get disconnected from the internet, your IP and port will get reset, and the torrent will die.
