net‐p2p ̸ filetransferdaemon - gordonb3/bubba-overlay GitHub Wiki
net-p2p/filetransferdaemon is a web based service that allows you to let your B3 download large files, or use its dropbox-like CGI method to upload files from anywhere on the internet to your B3.
USE flags
- apache2: required if you want to enable the upload feature (default: disabled)
- upload: adds the upload feature that allows you to transfer large files from a remote client to your B3 (default: enabled)
- libtorrent: adds support for downloading torrents (default: disabled)
- systemd: (default: disabled)
Note on torrent support
Changes to the underlying support libraries (boost and libtorrent-rasterbar) require a drastic rewrite of the ftd source code, which is outside the scope of this project. While the USE flag has been kept for historic reasons, the dependencies have been narrowed to require the last known (old) working versions of boost and libtorrent-rasterbar that will likely cause issues with other services that are still actively developed. Use at own risk.
