Its a really KISS application. Here are some install instructions:
After installing the package you might want to alter the rc script to use a dedicated user like opentracker isntead of nobody; this user does not need any rights nor does it need to write anything anywhere.
Create a config file /etc/opentracker/config containing:
tracker.rootdir /etc/opentracker access.whitelist whitelist access.stats 127.0.0.1
I get the following with these config options. Similar error when using the full path: Warning: Can't open accesslist file: whitelist (but will try to create it later, if necessary and possible). PWD: /etc/opentracker
Then we need a whitelist file for all torrents we like to share in the same dir. I use this which includes the previous ones on those archbott images from tpowa. Everything after a whitespace will be ignored; so I used it for commenting for the recent entries:
So sha1sum file >> whitelist is all that is needed?
I recommend to add an extra dns-entry like tracker.archlinux.org for it. The default port should be 6969. So if this thing is running I just could change tracker.archlinux.de to the new IP and the old torrents will still work.
tracker.archlinux.org added, 6969 opened in iptables
