Seedbox installation
It takes about 10 minutes to run, depending on your server setup.
After you have run the script and everything is working, I suggest a reboot, the script does not automate this reboot, you need to do it manually using the reboot command.
Run the script from root, or if you have a sudo user already set up you can run it from there. If for some reason it is interrupted you can run it again to completion. Running the script multiple times will not cause any problems.
First download the script:
wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arakasi72/rtinst/master/rtinst.sh
and then to run it:
bash rtinst.sh
or if you run it from a non-root sudo user:
sudo bash rtinst.sh
The script will assign a random ssh port for security purposes. It will display this on the screen when it has finished running and write it to ~/rtinst.info
IMPORTANT: NOTE THE NEW SSH PORT AND MAKE SURE YOU CAN SSH INTO YOUR SERVER BEFORE CLOSING THE EXISTING SESSION
For security the script assigns ftp to a random port number. You will need to use this port number in your ftp client. It will display the port number at the end of the script, and will also write it to ~/rtinst.info
To access that information just use the following command
cat ~/rtinst.info
There are a number of options that can be used when running the script.
Enables http download of content
Enables logging to ~/rtinst.log
Sets the ssh port to its default 22
Installs 'stable' rutorrent as opposed to the latest build which is installed as standard by the script
Will automatically accept the IP address as detected, will automatically skip rtorrent/libtorrent install if an existing installation is detected, and will generate a random password for rutorrent, unless -w, --webpass is also used to specify a web password.
names the user to be primary rtorrent user, can be an existing user or script will create a new user, for example if the user name is sally then the option would be '-u sally'
Sets the unix password, this only applies if a new user is created. It will not change the password of an existing user.
Sets the web password for the user. This is the password used by rutorrent, and is not the same as the unix account password
If we want to create a new user called horatio (unix password will be admiral, and the web password will be trafalgar), with out any further interaction, and we will create a log.
bash rtinst.sh -yl -u horatio -p admiral --webpass trafalgar
In this example we are running using sudo from an existing user but we wish to keep the ssh port at 22 and use the stable version of rutorrent
sudo bash rtinst.sh --ssh-default --rutorrent-stable
or
sudo bash rtinst.sh -tr
A number of additional scripts will be installed that carry out a variety of useful functions. These will be installed by the main script. So you don't need to remember all the script names you can run rtadmin which will, present a menu to launch the other scripts listed in this section.
sudo rtadmin
If you get an error run the following, you will only need to this once, and subsequently the prior command will work
wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arakasi72/rtinst/master/scripts/rtgetscripts
sudo bash rtgetscripts
All the scripts are downloaded to /usr/local/bin
This will install update all the rtinst scripts making sure you have the latest versions:
sudo rtgetscripts
This will add new users. Ensuring there are no conflicts with the existing user ports. You can use it to create brand new users, or reset the config on existing users. If you use it on an existing user, you will NOT lose any torrents, files, of autodl-filters. It will just reset the ports used. To run this:
sudo rtadduser
and enter the information asked for.
rtadduser can be run with options to minimise further user interaction. Useful if, for example, you wish to run the command from another script.
names the user to be added, can be an existing user or script will create a new user, for example if the user name is robert then the option would be '-u robert'
Sets the unix password, this only applies if a new user is created. It will not change the password of an existing user.
Sets the web password for the user. This is the password used by rutorrent, and is not the same as the unix account password
Adds the user to sshuser group giving them ssh access
Does not add them to the sshuser group, meaning they will not be able to connect via ssh
WARNING: This will completely remove a user wiping all their config and data, and removing them from the system. To run this:
sudo rtremove
and enter the user name when asked
This script will enable or disable https download
To run:
sudo rtdload
It will tell you the current status, and ask if you want to change it.
If enabled you can access at https://SERVER_IP/download/user_name
This script can upgrade, (or downgrade), the libtorrent/rtorrent version installed. To run this:
sudo rtupdate
This script upgrades Rutorrent. It retains all your config and settings, as well as providing a rollback capability.
To run this:
sudo rutupgrade
This will install webmin, (if not already installed), and configure nginx as a reverse proxy allowing you to access webmin using https://SERVER-IP/webmin To run this:
sudo rtwebmin
The scripts in this section can be run by any user other than root. They cannot be run by root as they are not applicable to root.
This will allow user to change their rutorrent password. to run this:
rtpass
This script can stop, start, or restart rtorrent or irssi. Use the arguments stop start or restart, with no arguments it will tell tell you if rtorrent is running or not
examples:
rt
rt stop
rt start
rt restart
If you use the option -i it will switch to irssi
rt -i
rt -i stop
rt -i start
rt -i restart
