Hello,

I'm trying to send something to my gf's friend (~50gb)

I tried creating my own torrent and was able to dl it on another device, but on her machine it stayed at 0% and wouldn't let me connect to seed

Is FTP a good option? I set up a proxmox server last night but I don't really know what I'm doing yet

Any guidance greatly appreciated, thanks.

I would use Resilio Sync. It uses bittorrent under the hood. https://www.resilio.com/individuals/

Why not just make it a torrent file then and let it seed? I don't see why paying for a service is required in this instance.

1 - Its not paid for personal use.

2 - OP said it can't seed. Resilio have a discover helper service fot this situations.

Because he’s having trouble getting it to connect that way, and for reasons I don’t completely understand, Resilio Sync connections seem to be quicker and more reliable than using a traditional tracker as the only seed.
