So far I’ve pretty much managed to completely avoid even properly knowing what a torrent is, let alone doing much of anything with them. This may change.

With the next release or Project Threepio, I might try seeding it on the Organ myself (in the past, I’ve relied on volunteers). My Internet connection is no longer as tragic as it once was, and I’ve got a headless 24/7 Linux box just sitting around without much to do.

So the question is: how would I even do this? I can ssh into the box, run processes with nohup so they keep going even after I disconnect, and rtorrent is installed. I just want to seed this one thing and nothing else. What’s the best way to go about this? What’s the best way to make it persist through reboots? And so on.
