The Download Library in Transmission Client

[Eliy1970]

Greetings

I recently installed the wonderful system of TRUENAS including network sharing and everything works fine except TRANSMISSION, I can not get to the download directory, although I see the files have been downloaded and they are somewhere but I do not have access to them, is there a neat guide on how to get the download directory and make it accessible? ??

Loads of info about Transmission.
Do a search.

Did you also share the directory/dataset where your configured your Transmission (plugin/jail "mount") downloads to reside?

All the information I was exposed to talked about older versions of FreeNas, I would be happy if you would refer me to an updated guide to the latest version ...(TrueNAS)

Apologies for the inconvenience :)

The bird's eye view:

• Want to access your files from within your Windows/Linux PC, as you would browse to a folder using the file manager?
  • The dataset/directory needs to be shared via SMB Shares
• Want to give a Plugin/Jail access to a particular dataset/directory that lives outside of the plugin/jail?
  • You need to create a mount point from the Jail's configuration, Jails -> NameOfJail -> Mount Points
• Want to have something like Transmission download to such a folder (mentioned above)?
  • Configure the application to download to /mnt/downloads/ (or whatever the name/location of the mount point you desire).

So from the Jail/Plugin perspective, torrents download into the location /mnt/downloads/ (as seen from inside the jail).

But from your perspective, in order to browse, open, delete, etc, these downloads, you would access the SMB Share (network folder) from your Windows/Linux PC. (This share just so happens to point to the same location on your ZFS filesystem, as you intend.)

Thank you, works fine :)
