Got it going within minutes. Now it will not only run remote, but will replace Ktorrent on my Desktop.

Thank you, Cheers
Manuel

$ man rtorrent

^O Change the destination directory of the download. The torrent must be closed.

It still uses more resources than rtorrent and is closed source, but I will mention it here because I needed SOCKS proxy support and noticed there were some other comments also seeking this feature. If anyone knows how to get SOCKS peer support in rtorrent please let me know.

You then give that torrent file to rtorrent.

The instructions make it seem like to download a torrent, you already have to have the torrent. That doesn’t seem to make any sense. Why would I want to download something that I already have? Are you talking about seeding (uploading) to others? I would like to know how to get (download, own, or possess) a torrent (that I don’t already have) from a torrent website, like Piratebay, etc.

I am trying to get it installed on a centos but no luck yet. the rpm got some dependency issues. looks like i have to compile it.
