Transmission upgrade to new version?

[Vanyo]

Hi all,

with pkg_add, I installed the transmission client. It's running fine, but the 2.13 version is banned from some torrent sites. Just wanted to install a newer version (2.33 is out now), but didn't manage to do it.
Could someone help me?
Any help is really appreciated.

If you are using an i386 installation of FreeNAS you'll need to change the amd64 or it won't work correctly.

I tried this and I can't get it to work. I have 2.13 running but it fails on magnet links - they get registeret as 0B in size. When I do the above I see it downloading and installing but I get alot of lines #... Failed to create# the only thing I did different was to get version 2.42 as it's the version available on the link.

Can somebody please help with guide for a newbie...

Thanks

Very easy, download and install FreeNAS 8.0.4 and you'll have the lastest version of Transmission 2.42.

FreeNAS 8.0.4 can be downloaded from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/freenas/files/


EDIT: I meant to say 8.0.4 - MultiMedia build

Thanks!

Then I'll go read somewhere about how to upgrade Freenas 8.0.3 to 8.0.4...
