How do I set my VPN Firewall/DDNS Settings?
Your VPN firewall and DDNS settings will be accessible once you are connected to the VPN.
Simply browse to
http://www.seed.st/vpn and you will see that when you are connected it is no longer an order page but a control panel.
What is DDNS?
DDNS is a feature included with all our VPN accounts that allows you to easily identify the IP that you have received from the VPN once you are connected. You can use this to remotely connect to your computer or even run your own servers. If you enable the option at
http://www.seed.st/vpn while connected to the VPN the DDNS will be activated. Your DDNS is always [username].user.vpn.seed.st. So if your username is pedro, your DDNS will be pedro.user.vpn.seed.st
How do I access files via FTP on my seedbox?
-
The login dialog will pop up, your server address is displayed above the login prompt, it should say something like “To view this page, you must log in to this area on
euxxx.seed.st”. Write this address down.

Open
FileZilla or your favorite
FTP client. In the “Host” field enter the address you copied from step 2. Enter the username and password you use to login to Seed.ST, and leave the port blank (default) or if it is required enter port 21.

We support Explicit TLS/
SSL for encrypted connections as well as unencrypted FXP site-to-site transfer. If your FXP is not working try turning off encryption.
My FTP speeds are slow, is there any way to make them faster?
There are two methods you may be able to use to increase your
FTP speeds.
Use our free FTP BNC service (BETA):
Follow steps 1 & 2 from “How do I access files via
FTP on my seedbox?” above to get your server address.
When you connect with your
FTP client, instead of using your server address in the 'Host' field use
bnc.seed.st
In the username field put
username@
euxxx.seed.st (euxxx.seed.st is your server address).
image
Click 'Connect'
Our bnc
does not allow encryption yet!! So please turn off
SSL/TLS.
This is exceptionally helpful to US and EU users who are getting slow speeds, it is untested outside of those networks, but we believe other users may receive a boost as well.
YMMV
How do I get my seedbox IP address?
-
The login dialog will pop up, your server address is displayed above the login prompt, it should say something like “To view this page, you must log in to this area on
euxxx.seed.st”. Write this address down.
image
Go to Start → Run (or press Windows+R) and type 'cmd' into the dialog box that opens and press enter.
image
In this command prompt type “ping
euxxx.seed.st” where
euxxx.seed.st is the address you copied in step 2. Press enter.
image
This will display the IP address as seen in the image above.
Do you allow public trackers?
How can i switch from a weekly to a monthly package?
A package i want is sold out, when can i get one?
Help! My torrents from the watch directory are pausing after a minute or so.
DO NOT use autotools to create the watch directory - it is already setup, the refresh rate on autotools is default (200 seconds), where /home/username/watch is 3 seconds. The watch directory is setup independent of ruTorrent and autotools - you do not need to add any settings to make it work. Stacking the autotools script and the built in watch directory functionality will break the watch directory. Running it independent of autotools means the torrents that are running will remain in the watch directory, and when you delete them it will stop and delete the running torrent - it is more convenient and faster.
What is autodl-irssi and how do I configure it?
autodl-irssi is a plugin that connects to an
IRC channel and watches for and downloads new torrents announced by that tracker's announce bot, according to filters you set.
-
You must configure the 'Trackers…' section of autodl-irssi to download torrents from trackers that require a login.
When you configure the action, you must use the Save to watch folder action, NOT the rTorrent action.
You can browse for your watch directory, or enter
/home/username/watch - where username is your username.

How do I cancel my subscription?
DISCLAIMER: PayPal has started processing their “end-of-term” notifications early in the morning (around 6AM EST) instead of at the time they were started, so your account will probably be deleted early in the morning on the date your subscription ends, regardless of what time you signed up! We have contacted PayPal about this issue, but we don't believe they will fix it.
I've only downloaded 1MB of a torrent, why does it say I'm using 10+GB?
