dirtwarrior Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 How do I make a torrent, get a tracker, and seed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarle Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 To make a torrent, you need software. Most torrent clients can make a torrent file.Personally, I use uTorrent to make my torrents.As for trackers, it's usually best to use the tracker from a known website. Otherwise, you have to run your own tracker. There are some site-less trackers available that you can run from your own computer, uTorrent has a built in tracker. Otherwise, you need to install a tracker with website software combo onto a server.As for seeding, you are usually the first seed since you're the one creating the torrent. You need the source files to create the torrent in the first place anyways. Unless you create the torrent using your source files and you know someone who has an identical copy of those files, they can seed for you.
