Description Ivan D Vasin 2008-08-02 02:45:18 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

I would like kget to support RC4 encryption of torrent traffic, like in azureus and utorrent.

That's actually a feature which should be implemented in libbtcore, so I will reassign this to the ktorrent-authors...

Has been a feature of libktorrent since forever:

bt::ServerInterface:: enableEncryption(bool allow_unencrypted)

So KGet needs to turn this on. The allow_unencrypted option is to allow incoming unencrypted connections or not.
