Hi Folks,

I've been trying to download the cooker iso's using bt for the last day or
so but running bittorrent slows my internet connection to a crawl my
connection is a cable modem 600K Down / 128K Up). After googling about it
looks like I need to preform some traffic shaping on my connection but
that looks a bit hairy and not really something I what to tackle at the
minute because I've only just got my Mandrake 9.2 nice and comfy for
everyday use. So, after reading through the BT website and wiki it appears
that I just need to start bt passing in a --max_upload_rate option (If I'm
reading and understading the docs correctly) however when I try to start
bt using the following command line,

[EMAIL PROTECTED] torrent]$ btdownloadgui.py --max_upload_rate 100
MandrakeLinux-20031231-i586.iso.torrent

I get the following error:

ERROR (10:28) -
error: Too many args - 0 max.
run with no args for parameter explanations.

Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong? Is there an rc file somewhere
that I should set this in?

Talk to you soon,
Take care,

Paddy

If it happens once, it's a bug.
If it happens twice, it's a feature.
If it happens more than twice, it's a design philosophy.
