Greetings
I'm very much an rtorrent/rutorrent n00b, and I am currently in the process of moving from Azureus to rtorrent/rutorrent. Azureus and rtorrent/rutorrent are on two different machines on my LAN. I used this guide to install rtorrent and rutorrent on an Ubuntu 9.10 machine:

Everything seems to work well.
I use the Azureus html webui to control Az remotely. I have set in the Az preferences for the webui to listen on, say, port 60154. Then I have that port forwarded in my router to the LAN IP address of the machine that runs Azureus. I can control Azureus from anywhere by going to
http://<my IP address>:60154
in a web browser. Works great.
A similar approach works on the LAN with rutorrent
http://<LAN IP address of rtorrent/rutorrent machine>/rutorrent
but how do I set the port so I can get to it from the internet?
Thank you!
