    Default Torrent question

    I am currently seeding two identical torrents on two different private torrent sites. As the size of the file - about 30Gb - is quite big, I was wondering if it was possible to seed them both from the same set of files, thus saving me a precious 30Gb of space.

    I am using uTorrent 1.6.1. Just to be clear on this, I didn't create either of these torrents. In fact, I had leeched all the data from one site when the same torrent popped up on the other site so I thought I would start leeching that too, stop the download, copy the files across to the other folder (oh yeah, the torrents create different folder names), force a recheck and then resume the torrent so as to help my ratio on the other site.

    There is probably a simple solution to this but I'll be buggered if I can work it out! Does anyone know?

    share the download folder on pc1, map a drive to the share \\pc1\sharename or whatever you called it on pc2.

    on pc2 open utorrent stop seeding it, right click > advanced > set download location... point at download folder in the mapped drive.

    force re-check... done.

    hope this helps
