# Transmission
|
|
|
|
[Transmission](https://transmissionbt.com/) is a free and cross-platform
|
|
BitTorrent client.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
The software can be setup via docker with the
|
|
[haugene image](./docker-images/haugene_-_transmission-openvpn.md) that
|
|
includes an openvpn tunnel.
|
|
|
|
## Leeching/Seeding
|
|
|
|
Leeching is the process of only downloading a file, Seeding describes the
|
|
download followed by alsow uploading it.
|
|
When the downloaded torrent should not be seeded the best way is enabling and
|
|
setting `Stop seeding at ratio:` to `0` under `Torrents` in the settings.
|
|
This will stop the process of seeding once a package is downloaded allowing
|
|
other torrents to start downloading.
|
|
|
|
## Legal Situation
|
|
|
|
This is not a legal advice.
|
|
Take your local laws into account when downloading torrents.
|
|
Some torrents can be copyright infringing and therefor illegal to download.
|
|
Use Transmission only to download legal and safe torrents like the [Arch Linux ISO](/wiki/linux/arch-linux/arch-linux.md#iso-medium).
|
|
Seeding it can help the community.
