 You can find an example [http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/browser/trunk/rtorrent/doc/rtorrent.rc?rev=latest .rtorrent.rc] file.
 Open .rtorrent.rc, and edit it (for each user):
- * add this line to your .rtorrent.rc "scgi_port = 127.0.0.1:12345" where 12345 can be replaced by your choice
+ * add this line to your .rtorrent.rc "scgi_port = 127.0.0.1:12345" where 12345 can be replaced by any port of your choice
  * and restart rtorrent
  * if you have more than one user, set a different port for each user's .rtorrent.rc file (be aware, to set different session directories for the users)

 If everything went fine, extract the rtwi-xxxxxx.tar.gz to some place where your webserver can see it.
 In case it's your first install, open the freshly extracted includes/config.php.inc, and edit the next lines:
- * $abs_path (the absolute path of your webroot, i.e.: "/var/www")
- * $domain (your domain, i.e.: "example.com")
- * $site_path (the relative path of the rtwi-xxxx directory, or whatever you renamed it, within your webroot, i.e.: "/rtwi/", if it's absolute path is /var/www/rtwi/)
- * $include_path (if you move the includes directory, or eave it untouched, i.e.: "/includes")
- * if your php interpreter does not handle .html files (only .php) set the $default_ext variable to "php", and rename the index.html to index.php
+ * set the $url["base"] variable to your rTWi installation's URL (without index file, and with a trailing slash, so something like ''!http://mysite.com/rtwi/'')
+ * if your php interpreter does not handle .html files (only .php) set the $url["index"] variable to "index.php", and rename the index.html to index.php

- * all users, using this webui will need an "!rtwi_files" directory into their download directory (set by "directory = some/path" in the .rtorrent.rc) with 0777 rights
- * the download directory should be inside your home directory (this might change later, as soon as i find out something secure)
