Download Utorrent:

Starting utorrent server on bootup

(between "<>" are the values to change in your case)


After, in linux distros like Ubuntu (and similar), you should do:
1) Copy the init script to "/etc/init.d/":

sudo cp /etc/init.d/utserver-daemon

2) Execute this:

sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/utserver-daemon

2) And this:

sudo update-rc.d utserver-daemon defaults

And go on!

Execute manually the script with:

sh -x /etc/init.d/utserver-daemon {start|stop|restart}


To start automatically:
sudo update-rc.d utorrent defaults
To remove:
sudo update-rc.d -f utorrent remove
