You might then be better off asking on one of the Arch forums:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/

As far as I can tell this has nothing to do with accessibility/Debian.

The command is not at issue here; the best parameters for the command 
after useradd console is what interests me if any are needed at all.  I 
can use sudo to enter any account on this machine so will probably 
password protect the console once set up if that's the way I decide to 
go.

Re: bittorrent help needed

[Rick Thomas]

I’d suggest that you’d be better off using an existing userid, rather than 
setting up a new “console” userid.  I don’t know how the deluge package in Arch 
is set up, but it may already have a preferred non-root userid.  Check 
/etc/passwd.

And, if you haven’t already done so, read all the manual pages and take a look 
in /usr/share/doc/deluge* for anything relevant.

As of now, no console userid exists in /etc/passwd.  I will need to

I replaced deluge with deluge-git a few hours ago and it brought in 
additional packages the original deluge never accessed.  Maybe this will 
be a better run, I'll find out after eating lunch.

I don?t know anything about aria2c or lftp, so I can?t help there.

But I have been successfully using deluge for a while now and I?ll try to help 
there ? if I can and if you?re interested to try it again.

But, if we?re going to help, we?ll need more details?

What OS are you trying to run it under?  Debian? Arch? Windows? MacOS? 
Something else?
If Debian, then what version?  Jessie? Squeeze? Something else?

What is your network like?  (DSL?  Cable at ?? Mbit up ?? Mbit down?  Something

If I’m reading the man page correctly, “deluge -s console” means to run deluge 
with userid “console”.  Is that what you want to do?  If so, do you have a 
userid “console” in /etc/passwd ?  Is the “console” userid in the usual set of 
groups in /etc/group?

I use deluge on Debian.  In my system I run “deluge-web -f” as myself to start 
the daemon, then I attach to the running daemon with “firefox 
http://localhost:8112”.  Can you do that on arch?


Here’s a thought:  Do you really need/want bittorrent at all?  If all you want 
is a copy of the Debian 9.4 install iso, you can download it directly from one 
of the Debian mirror sites — no need for deluge at all.

Re: bittorrent help needed

[Jude DaShiell]

I'm trying this on archlinux.  I installed deluge and 
python2-identity-service.  After having run the iptables commands in the 
archwiki entry for deluge to open ports I ran deluge -s console.  Then I 
ran deluge and was told I couldn't connect to localhost since the 
username didn't exist.  I had also added the user to the deluge group 
earlier too.  The network is wifi and going out over dns to comcast.net.
 Deluge will also not allow me to configure.  I have deluge using the 
deluge user unprivileged which got recommended since it's the most 
secure way to run deluge.  I hope this helps.
