[J.Stash]

sorry for noob questions

1) How do I know the total that I have downloaded or uploaded on my seedbox (there is a number at the bottom but that doesn't sound right)

2) On that note how do I permanently delete data from the seedbox (juz delete using ftp client??), but if i leave my current box just like that am i doing any mistakes? is it safe

3) i use ftp client filezilla with plane ftp & have cute ftp as well is my transfer encrypted like (SSH??? i don't know) How to make sure my ISP doesn't know what am transferring thru my ftp client??( cse i read somewhere with ftp transfer can be done encrypted with SSH or so am not sure if am talking right pardon me. says use the port 21 or so is encrypted but am using the port send by my provider?

If anyone gets what am asking pls answer.

1. If your seedbox is using rutorrent then the totals are on the bottom, both d/l and u/l.

2. you can delete using ftp but you can also right click on the torrent you want to delete and it gives you the option to "remove and" and the select delete data.

3. usually for secure transfer you can use sftp and port 22

but when i use port 22 it fails to connect & am using the port send by the provider isn't it safe?

Your ISP will only be able to tell how much and from where you are downloading (which in your case is your seedbox). You are not directly downloading from a torrent site. Personally I use ftp because it is faster and from what I understand it is relatively safe.

I am using seedroots and have no problem accessing on port 21 ftp or port 22 sftp.

Some seedbox use different port than default port 22 for SFTP, which is safe.
