The upcoming firmware completely removes the BTPD client, only leaving the Transmission client to download torrents.

If you want to stop BTPD in the meantime, install telnet daemon and use

Code:

/mnt/syb8634/bin/btpd stop

(just guessing the above code, do'n have a NMT at hand at the moment.

Ah; I was under the impression it *replaced* the btpd.

It looks like /mnt/syb8634/bin/btpd does not accept "stop" as an argument; playing around with it now. When I kill the PID manually, it seems to restart on its own, so there is some other process watching and restarting it, it seems.

Edit:

/ # ps | grep btpd
1136 root 1092 S /bin/btpd_monitor
1134 root 4304 R /mnt/syb8634/bin/btpd -d /share/.btpd -p 16970 --bw-i
1331 root 1932 S grep btpd

Edit:

Killing both off seems to have done it... but interesting that btpd is running with a port of 16970... this is the port I assigned to Transmission (and never have set anywhere else).
