missed adding, the directories involved are on the main sda partition. While the plan will be to use a second drive, I wanted to minimize install variables while getting this set up.

Is there a command to list which version of Transmission?

.. in trying to find version# I found the -d command, here is what Transmission thinks it should be using vs what the .json file is telling it show differences in directories I'll have to test:

transmission-daemon -d

 ========================
I found the directories specified by 'transmission -d" did not exist, so I made them and chmod 766 and chgrp to debian-transmission and I still get the same
"Error: Permission Denied (/home/nimda/dl/torrent/lubuntu-10.04.iso)"
on the transmission web gui. Meanwhile, a second box running older puppy-linux with transmission-gui is downloading the same file successfully.
