@stickz is there anything i can manually change in the source code that would change the port’s defaulted numbers ?

[ac1dburnz]

Would manually changing the source code correct this?

rtorrent/src/command_network.cc

And Changing line 243??

@colinborins i followed the same guide and changed the default port by editing /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rtorrent and changed the line in there to : ${rtorrent_port_range="50000-50000"} and that worked for me. Its not a perfect fix but it seemed to work for me. Hope this helps!
