I have installed UbuntuCenter, and everything seems to work fine. I am able to upload, download using http and everything else.

Id also like to say, that this is a wicked program, and i use it for many things, even putting my university work from my uni drive, onto my home pc. Very handy i cwan tell you.

Anyways, i cannot seem to get it to download any torrents, it just seems to never start no matter how many seeders there are (one has 10,000 seeders)

I have forwarded port 6881 (as i guessed this is the one i needed), it just wont start to download any torrents.

Do i need to install torrentflux? (or did this take place when installing ubuntu center)

Any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone know what port Ubuntu Center uses for torrents (is it the default 6881 port, or is it stated in a file somewhere?)

If I remember right I had Ubuntu Center default set to 8100-8900 range, I don't think I forwarded any ports and it seems to work fine for me. But it could depend on the network.

BTW, sorry to the rest of you user that are still waiting for the preview release of Hive that was supposed to be released a long time ago, I hope to work on it a little bit when I have more time in the upcoming months.
