Description of problem: Add init scripts (soon to be attached) to bittorrent package so users can easily setup trackers and seeders on their own. See attached.

It'd be really spiffy if it could get a logrotate.d file, too.
Do you have any sample log files for the tracker?
Forget the logfile samples request - I was thinking of logwatch rather than logrotate. Initscripts added in bittorrent-4.0.1-2, currently in build queue.
I'll be posting some new init scripts for bittorrent shortly. the ones I posted before kinda sucked for various reasons. These are mo-betta.
Glad to hear it; I noticed that btseed was causing initlog to use lots of CPU and memory after a while, probably because it didn't daemonize properly, but I haven't had chance to investigate yet.

I've updated the scripts in the bittorrent-4.1.1-2.fc5 package (devel). Not quite the same as the ones you supplied; I've now managed to get them in a state where they check properly that the "daemons" have started and also that I can start them from an ssh session and actually be able to log out of that session cleanly :-)
yah, I noticed those checkins. That rocks. Thanks!
