Is there any special pendrive that i should be using for 24X7 downloading?also what if my pen drive stops working what will happen to pogo plug then?

also how do i Ssh tunnet into Pogo plug through windows 7?
 
^ Any pendrive should be fine. If it stops working, the device will not start. Its a good idea to have a backup so even if the pendrive fails you can easily restore to another pendrive.

For SSH, just use a SSH client like Putty.
 
Next, edit /etc/conf.d/transmissiond and supply a TRANS_USER variable.

TRANS_USER="torrent"

These first steps are important from a security perspective for ensuring that transmissiond drops root privileges down to a normal user. You do not want to be running this as root.

Next, run Transmission to generate configuration files:

(note: you need to use sudo or be root to run any rc.d scripts.)

SUCESSFULLY INSTALLED ARCHLINUX on the PLUG

installed transmission

but stuck in the above mentioned step

iam all thumbs when it comes to the VI editor

403: Forbidden

Unauthorized IP Address.

Either disable the IP address whitelist or add your address to it.

If you're editing settings.json, see the 'rpc-whitelist' and 'rpc-whitelist-enabled' entries.

If you're still using ACLs, use a whitelist instead. See the transmission-daemon manpage for details.

i get this error message when i try to run the WEB ui

so please help

btw when i try to edit the config files nothing is present
 
^ Please use quotes, it will make it easier to read!

Can't differentiate the step you followed and your query.

First stop transmission and then edit the settings.json file. If the file is empty, you are looking at the wrong location
 
U just need to set rpc flag to false but first stop transmission or send a hup signal if u want to without stopping it

I'm sure you are not in the hidden folder
 
ok how do i see where transmission is installed in my ciomputer?

that is in my plug

and laso please tell me how to ste a prermanent ip for my plug

Iam getting this
<


/root/.config/transmission-daemon/settings.json: Permission denied
 
^^ for the ip , go to your router and select a fix ip matching the MAC address of pogoplug. This must be near the ip selection/DHCP tab.

I did something similar for my wdlive.

As for transmission if you have installed correctly, go to your web browser and in address bar put your-pogoplug-ip:9091/
 
Stability wise which is better system ?

Installing archlinux or debian like in foonza forums ?

Debian installation has an advantage that when I pull my USB drive the pogoplug boots into it's own OS, just like unmodified. Any opinion of members using pogo will be appreciated.

My intention is to run rtorrent and psybnc.
 
With archlinux you'll get all latest packages with stable version but with debian not all packages are available as stable release in debian , also debian has large user base resulting better support.Stability wise both are equally good.

^^ you can try powering down pogo, disconnect the USB and connect to a PC. Now just edit your json file.

There are some missing permissions You are unable to rw on your USB via pogo.
