Different Users with qbittorrent-nox GUI

Post by interf@ce »

Hey Guys

Im Running qbittorrent-nox (qbittorrent without X server) on my Ubuntu Server 10.4.
Is it possible to add more user to the Gui than just the one admin account?
Because my qbittorrent is used by different users from different places.
I haven't found any config files for the qbittorrent-nox yet.

Thanks for helping me out on this
Cheers

I think you need make new linux users then the qbittorrent saves its settings. Of course you must use different port at the HTTP server and different download directory(/home/user1/qb and /home/user2/qb).For example Joe uses IP:9090 then Su uses IP:9091.
Every user forbidden to change this port.I think that's it.I'm going to try in next days or you can try yourself. :)
Normally the root or admin have to know every user password.So I hope it works.
It's working .8)

Yes of course this works.
Thanks for the help.
But the problem with this solution is that there are now two instances of qbittorrent-nox running for each user. That's what i dont want, because it takes a lot memory away.
Would be nice to have a user management inside qbittorrent.
But anyway thanks

Greetings
