I've been trying to figure out how to actually <i>run</i> a python script. I downloaded the python source for BitTorrent, since I want to use it to distribute some films friends and I made a few years ago rather than have my server's bandwidth totally chewed up. However, I haven't the first clue how to actually run a python script remotely in order to get the server set-up to act as a tracker. Any help?<br /><br />Relevant sites: <ul><li> <a href="http://www.bittorrent.com/guide.html" target="_blank">BitTorrent File Server's Guide</a></li><li> <a href="http://www.bittorrent.com/download.html" target="_blank">BitTorrent Download Page</a></li><li> <a href="http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/bittorrent/BitTorrent-3.4.2.zip?download" target="_blank">SourceForge BitTorrent Source Download</a></li></ul>Any help would be muchly appreciated. <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /><!--content-->
You'd be better off with a PHP bittorrent tracker. Much easier to setup and are designed more for environments like shared servers. You can find a list of some here:<br /><!--coloro:blue--><span style="color:blue"><!--/coloro-->http://www.filesoup.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=6780<!--colorc--></span><!--/colorc--><br /><br />The obvious disclaimers apply. Too much activity and we'll have to ask you to shut it down (shouldn't be a problem if it's just films for your friends), and make sure the content being advertised by the tracker is legal (again... shouldn't be a problem if it's your own stuff).<!--content-->
Yeah, that's what I went with. Thanks!<br /><br />And yes, all the content is legal (our own fan creations). Not looking to get sued or anything here <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="
