    The only times i have gotten that error is when rtorrent was already running and i manually reloaded the .rtorrent.rc, although what wonslung said about chowning the user dir could also be the problem/fix. If that's all the output you are getting it looks like you didn't compile rtorrent with...

    Guide also OK for 10.10, but remove 4.1 from package names (gcc4.1->gcc). Thanks, after utorrent server and transmission I can say this is the best torrent server.

    I tested quota under Debian Lenny. I will give another try. Maybe if preload_type is used this cause a crash. Mine was set to 0.

    Excellent Wonslung! I knew why it was slow, but didnt know there was a solution. I'll look into this, and if its simple enough I'll update the guide to use SFTP rather than FTPS
