Full Version: Bit Torrent blocked?
Hostony Board > General Support > General Support

I am trying to run a Bit Torrent tracker, but, I heard from someone certain hosts block out the ports of Bit Torrent.

Do you guys block it?
I have been using Bit Torrent for quite a while at my other host and would like to continue.

I get "no sources" when everything works.

Thanks.

No, we have not any kind of rules that deny software (we only deny chat usage, as it told at our AUP). But if this software use outgoing connections using non-standard port, it will be denied by our firewall.
Dark Hedgehog
So this means I cannot use it?

If so, can you enable it on my account as a request?
Stanly
I can only grant access to static IP and port from your account.
Dark Hedgehog
Ah, okay. Can you do it?

I doubt the ip changes, does it?
Stanly
I don't know where your script will be connect, so I can't answer.
Dark Hedgehog
Does this help?

port

The port number this peer is listening on. Common behavior is for a downloader to try to listen on port 6881 and if that port is taken try 6882, then 6883, etc. and give up after 6889.


Or what is the problem?

If so, I can find it out if you let me know.

We don't support Bit Torrent trakers. Sorry.
If you realy need it, you can choose dedicated or VPS hosting solutions.
Dark Hedgehog
Nah, i'll find an alternative free hosting thing for it.

How much is dedicated? I looked into it and don't find really any prices.

And what is VPS? I looked almost everywhere.
