The fact that a "feature" like this exists in all common clients is not a reason why changing the behavior a bit should be impossible. I suppose that, private torrents are not supposed to be downloaded by such ways. Though that DO help the users in some way Most private trackers operate a forced ratio tracking system where a user is required to have a minimum amount of upload and are often required to seed their torrents for a minimum time limit to maintain their membership.
If you use DHT and such to discover peers, it's cheating, with no doubt. Rules are the most important thing in the pt network. That's absolutely demonstrably false looking at the health of public torrents if you call DHT peers invisible.
PT is a far more smaller and much more closed circle, and their thought differs from what most open torrent seeder think, thus they shall NOT be considered as a part of the whole BT ecosystem. Believe me when I said they think different, 'cause I use private torrent, too. Usually when our download is finished, we seed for some time to make contribution, but this is not enforced. If you no offence decided to "hit and ran", download the whole thing and upload nothing, though we will feel unconfortable, it's totally okay.
You have to register an account to download. Private tracker keeps records of what you've downloaded, how much you've downloaded, how much you've uploaded , and when it found out that you uploaded less that a preset value mine is 0. You might have just understand what happened: PT requires everyone to upload to others before they can download more. BT likes to share, whether a peer contribute to others and how much exactly, is very flexible.
PT goes another way, forcing everyone to contribute. The most important thing in the PT world is fairness, and it forces all of its members to do the same. Open seeders seeds torrent and hopes that, they will be given the wanted files while they leech.
Private seeders seeds torrent because they have to , or they won't be able to download anymore. If there are other people with that privatized torrent they can still exchange blocks. You still haven't read the suggestion, this should apply after the PT is dead , after than any speak about fairness or rules is absolutely silly and unenforceable.
A private tracker shouldn't be affecting the user's sanctification after the tracker is dead. You've considered about user satisfaction, that's great. But have you ever think about whether people will ever run a private torrent with no speed and no hope for furthur progression , for a few year?
No, or, at least, I won't. Also, as I already said you might have missed sth. But have you ever think about whether people will ever run a private torrent with no speed and no hope for furthur progression, for a few year? Yeah, one client implements it and others will consider, that's how community decisions are made.
Lack of support as such currently should not mean a feature can't be implemented and offered to the users, considering it as a reason is tautology. Yes, of course, if those files are not available otherwise. Another proposal has just came to my mind: How about we showing a switch on the interface, and let the user decide whether to use DHT This switch can only be toggled when using another more complicated mode like: developer mode?
The problem is, mostly there's always another way to gain access to a similar copy of the file. How about we showing a switch on the interface, and let the user decide whether to use DHT Yes, this could work.
How about we stop trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist? Nobody needs this "feature" to be a thing. Why not just to introduce a comfort function to transmission "transform torrent to public use with care ", which would do few steps instantly which must be done manually now :.
The problem is, mostly there's always another way to gain access to a similar copy of the file But sometimes there isn't. Recalculate hash is almost impossible without all of the files. As said before, the private flag changes the hash, and hash algorithm of, hash function is a hash algorithm because it is "a function which is infeasible to invert.
The only way to recreate the input data from an ideal cryptographic hash function's output is to attempt a brute-force search of possible inputs to see if they produce a match, or use a rainbow table of matched hashes. Even without Wikipedia, the answer is still clear. Because if a open torrent's hash can be easily derived from its private version's hash, there's no real needs for this question anymore: I can just derive its open version's hash and create a magnet address for everyone else not in this circle to download, and pt will be totally meaningless!
Sure I was not speaking about this case but about the OP how to get both in a comfortable way: private flag drop and still no DHT enabled for private torrents. Avamander Torrents are made private for a reason. They're never supposed to go to DHT. This goes against everything torrent clients are made for, and this terrible idea would just get Transmission banned from any private tracker. What you're asking for is a non-problem.

Privacy Terms. Quick links. DHT for selected torrents. Discussion of Transmission that doesn't fit in the other categories. Post by eberian » Mon Jul 30, am Hi everyone. I'm using mixed sources for torrents. For private trackers i've must disable DHT and PEX, but then public torrents are very, very slow or even wont start sometimes.
Use tshark or your OS equivalent to check packet flow to determine where problem is occurring. Improve this answer.
