 Torrent Trackers on Shared Hosting? Is there any web hosting companies (irish or otherwise) that allow torrent trackers to be used on a shared server without having to go to the expense of buying a dedicated server. I intend to open a small tracker intergrated into my Vbulletin forum for sharing non-copyrighted files. Cheers, Richard         |

| depends on the tracker but I believe port 6969 ... One problem as I see it is most Tracker software needs to be compiled on the server ... and they tend to be a bit of a resource hog (100 mbs is one figure I've seen quote) You'll also need a fixed IP (to the best of my knowledge) ...

| Would'nt know what port is used. It would be this mod here: SourceForge.net: VBTT - vBulletin Torrent Tracker Says its written in PHP. It would only be a small tracker about 20-30 peers connected at the same time. Hope that helps and thanks for replys. |

| You wouldn't be able to host it with us, since we firewall our network. You'd probably be able to do it with a lot of the other hosting companies however, as a lot of them have little or no firewalling in place

| Like Michele we firewall our shared network, but you could probably run it off a dedicated server from about the 100-150 euro per month mark. |
