Now, if you attempt to start downloading your torrents, transmission will work properly: 4. Then, we grant write access to the group: chmod -R 775 /home/itnetworkeng/Downloads/transmission To do so, we will change the ownership of the downloads directories to the debian-transmission group that transmission is member of and inherit its permissions from: chgrp -R debian-transmission /home/itnetworkeng/Downloads/transmission
The owner of the transmission directories is the root, as they were created by our root user, so we need to add transmission service itself as an owner for those directories and grant it the required privileges to make it able to write to the downloads directories. If you attempt to start downloading your torrents, you will see later in this post how to access transmission, you will get an error:Īpparently, this error is because the transmission service does not have sufficient permissions to write on the transmission directories we have just created.
You need to create the locations (and set their permissions) for “transmission” downloads: mkdir /home/itnetworkeng/DownloadsĬreate a temp directory for the incomplete files that are still being downloaded: mkdir /home/itnetworkeng/Downloads/transmission/incompletetorrentsĬreate another directory for downloads that have been completed: mkdir /home/itnetworkeng/Downloads/transmission 3. Transmission installation requires root authorized commands, so assume the root role first: sudo -iįollow the next commands individually: apt updateĪdd-apt-repository ppa:transmissionbt/ppaĪpt-get install transmission-cli transmission-common transmission-daemonĪpt-get install transmission-gtk transmission-cli transmission-common transmission-daemon 2. From there you could perform the remaining tasks such as transmission installation.Īfter installing EVE-NG, you might need to get nodes images for your EVE-NG labs through torrent, you can download and install transmission as it wouldn’t conflict with any HTTP service running on the VM instance. Every time you login to the VM instance hosting EVE-NG you will be presented with the EVE-NG Setup utility, click Control-C to return to bash.
