Mylar setup

[escrima]

yes, same permissions. Mylar runs as the media user, which now has a UID/GID of 8675309. I can enforce permissions when mylar post processes, but not when it grabs a torrent file.

Can I force transmission to run as media?

Can I force transmission to run as media?

that is what I do. If they run in the same jail this should do it

Code:

service transmission onestop
sysrc 'transmission_user=media'
service transmission start

you may also need to change the permissions of any folders transmission downloads to
chown -R media:media /path/to/download/folder

 

[escrima]

win, that did it.

Thanks for putting up with me, Josh.

 

[Joshua Parker Ruehlig]

sweet, glad it worked

 

[escrima]

I wish I could get you together with the Mylar dev. something is wonky with Mylar, because sickrage works flawlessly.

 

[Joshua Parker Ruehlig]

yeah, it's just a smaller project with alot less devs. Sickrage is really well maintained and has a huge userbase
