Rutorrent not reading access.ini settings

Hi there!

I am running rtorrent (0.9.3/0.13.3)/rutorrent (3.6 rev 2404)/lighttpd (1.4.32) w/ webauth (on openwrt).

My setup is such that I only want one instance of rtorrent running, with all users having access to view those torrents—one admin with read/write access, the others with read only.

When a new user is added to the password file, the directories are generated. Password prompt works fine, too.

My problem is that access.ini is not being read: even with every single setting in the /conf/access.ini set to "no", I still have full access on all accounts.

All users have access.ini/config.php copied into their directory as soon as the user is created, so all files are in place. I am getting no errors in the lighttpd error log.

What's causing this?

You cannot run multiple users on a single instance of rTorrent.


Do you think this is causing a conflict that is in turn causing rutorrent to not read the access.ini file at all?

I made a quick php file to check whether or not the if(is_file($conf) && is_readable($conf)) check on getConfFile() worked with the permissions in lighttpd, and it does—it stands to reason, then, that it is not a permission problem.
