How can I stop transmission service from SSH?

[electricd7]

Hello,

I am trying to stop the transmission service on my FreeNAS box but only have SSH access at the moment. I tried doing a "top" and getting the PID for transmission-daemon and then issuing both a "kill 3981" and a "/bin/kill 3981" but neither seemed to work. Is there a safe way to kill this service remotely without access to the web shell? Thanks.

You can access the jail and then issue "service transmission stop". I think that's the syntax, I'm not at my machine right now to check.

You can access the jail and then issue "service transmission stop"

I believe more properly this is:

Code:

jexec `jls jid` service transmission onestop

This should keep it in sync with the GUI.
