I apologize if this has been covered in faq somewhere, but I did a search and didn't come up with anything...

I've created a torrent for "site a." Upload, download, load into rutorrent, seed, no problems. I then create another torrent for "site b" using the same directory with the only difference being the tracker url. I upload, download, load into rutorrent.. and this is where it breaks down. It never loads the second torrent ("site b"). It doesn't add a tracker to the first torrent, it doesn't create a new torrent for "site b," it just doesn't do anything.

it looks like it loaded into rutorrent okay.. in the logger it shows "Torrent was added successfully" but nothing changes.

I'm stumped.

i changed a part of the directory name and reupped and everything worked fine, but who wants to double (or more) up on all of their files?

I'm sure there's a simple way to accomplish what i'm trying to do, but I seem to be looking at the trees wondering where the forest is.

thanks for any help!

Re-create the torrent but use a different piece size to the one in the already seeding torrent.
