Huh, why not just use QBittorrent? I've never even felt the need to reach for the command line with torrents (Linux ISOs of course) because it works so well.

Yes it was QBitTorrent. The problem was getting mulvad out of the VM while letting QBitTorrent use a local network share to save files. I needed everything to be static ips.

Would you have been able to create your specific use case on Windows? Because most people don't try "getting mulvard out of the VM". That's the type of thing that's in my experience usually (I don't know about this case specifically - that's why I'm asking) a lot easier on Linux than on Windows (not that it's easy)

The reason I brought it up was because it worked without problems in a Windows VM. But I really didn't want to run Windows so I worked on Linux until it worked.
