Torrent: Webseed or seeding client on server?
- by Eliasdx
I want to share a file using bittorent which I also offer over http.
The torrent should be seeded by a dedicated and a virtual server and by people who are downloading it to lower bandwidth costs.
My question: Should I set up a bittorrent client (rtorrent) on the servers and let them seed the file or should I use webseeds? I also want to limit the bandwidth the server uses to seed which is possible using rTorrent.
How many bittorrent clients support webseeds? I found it in µTorrent and never heard of it before.
