How to upload a file through my seedbox to a tracker and seed it through there
FTP the file to your seedbox using Filezilla or similar.
As to adding it to the tracker are you using rTorrent, Deluge or Transmission on the seedbox?
i will have ruTorrent, so i have to download FTN and through FTN i can uplaod a file from my computer to the ruTorrent and to the tracker
FTP = File Transfer Protocol. Its how you move one file from your computer to the seedbox. Download Filezilla (free) and this will do it for you
After you have moved your file to your seedbox go to ruTorrent and click Create Torrent. Navigate to the file or folder you want to upload and select it.
Next you need to add the tracker you want to announce to (usually go into whichever tracker you are in and click "Edit Profile" somewhere there it will have your "personal announce" you need to add this to where it says trackers.
Next make sure "Start Seeding" and "Private Torrent" are ticked and then press "Create". This will generate a .torrent file which you should save anywhere on your computer.
Next step is to press the Upload button on whichever tracker you are using then add the .torrent file fill in the rest of the information and your done!

ok i will give this a try and i'll see if i can manage to work it, thanks a lot for the info HighDefinition
since you seem to know this stuff, could you tell me what is the difference between these plans, i am trying to chose one of them

could you tell me what is the importance of clock speed, cores in, RAM, what is the significance between the value of these
this all is for the performance of the seedbox & interface of rutorrent & transfer speed of file within HDD of server.
but i think RAM is very important part..
and one thing i like to say that
SEEDBOX/SERVER <----> FTP/SFTP CLIENT <----> USER
This is the chain with seedbox and use SFTP to download & upload securely
The first or second plan would be fine for general torrenting. Only go with the second plan if your gonna be uploading large files (100gb plus) eg movie packs etc.
The 3rd and 4th plans are in my opinion useless because they still restrict you to a 3TB Upload Cap therefore I couldnt justify spending the extra just to gain CPU/RAM speed.
Also as snake said RAM is very important but even if your seeding 1000 torrents 1gb RAM burstable to 1.5gb is reasonable.
wow that is very interesting, i did not know the importance of RAM,
so with the connection of 100Mbps what would the difference of a 2GB compared to a 12GB RAM do
like if the connection is only 100Mbps and this is a dedicated IP, what does the difference of RAM bring to the table
RAM has little effect on the connection speed. If you have 2GB dedicated RAM that will be more than sufficient.
The main thing the RAM influences is the management of your torrents etc. A good example is if you had a slot with 500mb RAM and you decided to delete say 50 torrents that you dont want anymore the system will slow down significantly and sometimes even crash.
Also if you are running auto download scripts etc these use a bit of RAM as well.
Normally most seedbox providers give you a reasonable amount of RAM for what you will use it for but if you feel rTorrent etc crashing very often when making changes it can be a shortage of RAM
That is great info HighDefinition, also from those stuff like the connection, disk size and stuff like that, what is the one that i should focus more that deals precisely with the upload speed, when i check seedboxs, which value should i focus on the most
There are really only 2 things that will have major impact on the upload speed they are
"Upload Connection or Upload Bandwidth"
100mbit is the standard obviously. 1gbit (1000mbit) is obviously much better but obviously more pricey.
"Users per Server"
This is probably the most important thing. Dont forget unless you are paying hundreds of dollars for a dedicated server you are always sharing the connection with other people.
The lower this number the better - many usually share it between 8-11 users. Also some of the less reputable providers will lie as to how many users are sharing the server.
Gamestuff.ca are a good example they usually limit there servers to 4 users or less.
Ok i understood it now, gamestuff was interesting, i feel feralhosting has a better deal in dedicated servers
thanks for ur help again
when i had seedbox with feral myn just done it automatically through rutorrent when i was seeding them on iptorrents, then just used cuteftp to move the files but found it to take ages to move the file to my computer but may be faster for you x
Filezilla is good for free but file segmantation is the shit. I use use cute ftp client but not free I don't no about some of the craked cuteftp torrents I wouldn't use them wtih such and important service. I do my ftp 4 times as fast as filezilla would let me be carfull of the free programes witch say they have segmentation I couldn't find one that actully worked.
