Short answer: Probably. Are you behind a hardware router? You probably have to open ports there or use upnp there as well.
Long answer: I don't have any routers that do upnp (or have turned it off on those that do). I'm old school, and if something opens an inbound port thru my router I want to know about it.
As such I always forward a port MANUALLY to each machine authorized to run torrents behind my router.
Hover the cursor over all the ports fields in the Ktorrent settings, and it will tell you which of them need to have holes in the firewall. Also see the help. There is a Recommended Settings button in Ktorrent that helps you calculate your upload bandwidth cap so as not to swamp your own download with your uploads.
A generally helpful guide to bit torrant, (even tho it is NOT about kTorrent) is here: http://www.bittorrent.com/help/guides/bittorrent-connection-guide
I would say yes, there is a router but I guess the opensuse 11.4 default firewall blocks the incoming trafic for the upnp port and thus that plugin/script, I have not checked whenever I download anything. While KTorrent is good, but I have felt a reason to do with the Deluge, seems a little more delighted to heart. I see and the guide and see, but I though that firewall would have an option of somewhere written 'torrent' which is not seen as far now, but I search in the link you have sent. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
