Hello, I have a problem with my rutorrent. The "add peer..." option is not working. It appears in the menu when a torrent is right clicked, but it is not click able like the other options (such as start, pause, etc.).

installation was done using script. rutorrent v 3.4, libtorrent v 0.13.2 and rtorrent v 0.9.2

on few trackers two of my clients wont always connect to each other and I would like to have the option of manually connecting them.

thanks.

Thanks for your reply. Is there anyway i can see which port is used for a specific torrent? or does rtorrent use a different port for each connection (as in to each peer) for a given torrent?

Regards

Thanks for your reply.
For wich reason you need to know such strange thing?
or does rtorrent use a different port for each connection (as in to each peer) for a given torrent?
It depends from a peer connection. It may be incoming (flag I in the corresponding row on the Peers tab) - in this case rtorrent use tcp port from the rtorrent.rc. Or not. See p2p protocol specifications.

the reason why I need this is because on some torrents my deluge v 1.3.5.0 (on a different box) wont connect to my rtorrent client. I would like to know which port is being used so I can manually add it in my deluge client.
