How to enable transmission-create on freenas transmission installation

[ghostwolf59]

Hi,
Can someone please outline the steps to enable transmission to upload new torrents

from what I read I should be able to use the transmission-create command line to create new torrents, but the command is unknown.
Tried to install the package "pkg install transmission-cli" but that too comes back with error - no such package

Code:

root@freenas ~]# pkg upgrade                                                  
Updating local repository catalogue...

root@freenas ~]#

Don't want to install another client for this if I can avoid it so anyone that really knows how to get this feature up and running, please let me know!

cheers

Are you doing that in a jail or on the freenas system?

These are the different ports available for transmission. http://www.freshports.org/search.ph...leted&start=1&casesensitivity=caseinsensitive

You will need to install the missing transmission-cli port to use that functionality (assuming you installed transmission in a jail to start with).

Tried both - both return the same error
At the moment transmission-create is missing so I recon I need to install the package - but that don't seem to work

The other reply mentioned "install missing port" - no idea what port that could be missing - transmission is up and running and works fine - Just not able to create my own torrent

Update: hmm, tried it again from within the transmission jail and the pkg install now seem to work - will see if I can use the -create torrent command once its downloaded

Update 2: Yep - Command now available

cheers
