A note on Azureus: If you are using Azureus please disable scraping (go to Tools --> Options --> Tracker --> Client and uncheck the box 'Enable Scraping').

You don't need scraping to download files. It's only needed to auto-start torrents for seeding, and disabling that greatly reduces server load of ALL trackers that you're downloading files from
Thanks

Btw coral cache seems not doing very well. I just notice that the content is cached for 12 hours (see their faq) ... obviously too long for a page that shows torrent stats
So you may want to use this URL instead (without nyud.net:8080) for latest stats:
http://mynnam.freecoolsite.com/pupbt/

Announce URL(s) you can use:

For these two you need to upload your torrent to their sites for it to work.
* http://linuxtracker.org/announce.php
* http://tracker.tlm-project.org:6969/announce

If you are not uploading your torrent to the above sites, try these:
* http://members.lycos.co.uk/myurlbt/pup/announce.php
This one is for our exclusive use. If you are using it, please kindly send me (or J_Rey or GuestToo) a pm so that your torrent can be activated (i.e, have the torrent uploaded to the corresponding server; don't skip this step, otherwise your torrent won't work; this is to prevent unauthorized use of the announce url/tracker, which can create a lot of unwanted traffic)
* http://tracker.prq.to/announce
This is a public one that anyone can use. It's the announce url of a popular torrent site called thepiratebay. No uploading of torrent is needed. But since it's public, it's very busy too, which means the tracker has frequent downtimes or is very slow.

You can choose to have more than one annoucne url when creating the torrent with bittorrent clients like Azureus.

To check the status and announce url of the torrents hosted here please see this page (example).

PS. I have one more backup announce url that you can use in case the ones listed above are too slow. Just send me a pm if you want to use it.

If you need a lightweight bittorrent client, try Transmission:

and please help seed as I'm near useless with this dsl connection and seeding more than just puppy.

For those of you interested in getting Puppy by aMule, eDonkey etc here is the ed2k hash:

• puppy-2.16.1-seamonkey-fulldrivers.iso
• 53C906B2211C9AB8A8C0C4CD6D0ED6D9

I'm also sharing a few puplets, but I doubt anyone else is, so it'll be really slow.

I created a DownloadPuppy217 page on the wiki, and have put up a torrent. But only for the lzma version as I can't find one for the gzip version.

Is there a torrent for the 2.17 gzip version? If not, is anyone going to make one? Then we can add it to LinuxTracker & the download page.

Torrent available for 2.17.1:
http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=4420

Hi all, I've created a torrent for Gray's Puppy NOP 217up1 (uses Xfce & Opera) at linuxtracker.org.

Please try sharing/downloading NOP using BitTorrent.

EDIT: URL REMOVED

I was using createtorrent, which kept attaching extraneous, incorrect port numbers to the tracker URL, but noprob submitted a working torrent.

Puppy NOP 2.17up1 torrent:
http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=4453

NOP 3.01 rev1 now available by BitTorrent from LinuxTracker, everyone please seed!

http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=4831

Watchdog 1.1 now available by BitTorrent from LinuxTracker.

http://linuxtracker.org/torrents-details.php?id=4833

Watchdog is Puppy Linux 2.16 with zoneminder installed. Watchdog runs from CD, and is blisteringly fast. Watchdog can also be installed to HDD, DVD, Flash drive, basically virtually any PC media capable of booting, but no installation is required. It is also very easy to configure the system the way you want (Eg configure your cameras) then to create a new Cd for just your machine, all your settings will be carried over. Works well with USB cameras; perfect for any scale surveillance with many modes of recording including motion detection. Created by Hushpuppy and supprted on Zoneminder and Puppy linux forums

tombh's first experimental release of Puppy NOP with Compiz-Fusion 3D compositing window manager built in is now available via Bittorrent via Linuxtracker.org

Forum thread re Wobbly: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=23569

Torrent for Fire Hydrant 3.01a via Linuxtracker

anyone who has it, please seed as my DSL has pretty limited upload

Some new Puppy torrents via LinuxTracker.org
[list][*]Fire Hydrant FH_Jwm3.01c
[*]Fire Hydrant Inferno3.0b
[*]Fire Hydrant Featherweight3.0b
[*]Puppy NOP 301 R3
[*]Puppy Wobbly NOP version 0.2[/list]

due to issue with the tracker for the previous Hacao torrent, I've decided to make a new Hacao torrent on LinuxTracker.

• link deleted

Anyone who already has Hacao, please help seed this new torrent, whose tracker should (hopefully) be more reliable.

well, LinuxTracker trashed all existing torrents and user accounts, with no warning whatsoever.

so I'll be posting Puppy torrents on The Pirate Bay for the near future; if someone wants to cross post those to LinuxTracker or elsewhere, fine.

Here's the new torrent for Hacao:

Here's a torrent for the latest release candidate of PCPuppyOS, 3.01 RC5:

Direct link to PCPuppyOS 3.01 RC5 torrent

Folks,

• If you don't have PCPuppyOS yet, get it with the torrent.
• If you have it already, help others get it by downloading and running the torrent and choosing the ISO's existing location on your hard drive as the "Save... " location. That's called "seeding".
• If you have RC4, find & download the xdelta patch
