rtorrent and transdroid

I'm trying to configure rtorrent to communicate with my android device. I'm trying to follow this (http://www.transdroid.org/download/usin … on-ubuntu/) walkthrough but it's for ubuntu and I'm running into a few issues.

It's especially this step that is giving me a hard time:

And add the following lines at the near-end of the document, just before the line that says '</VirtualHost>':

SCGIMount /RPC2 127.0.0.1:5000
<location /RPC2>
AuthName "rTorrent secure access"
AuthType Basic
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /home/yourusername/Documents/rtorrent-htpasswd
Require user yourusername
</location>

If I have understood things correctly this should probably go in the httpd.conf file right? Still regardless of what I do I won't get it to work. Some help would be really appreciated.

BUMP

If anyone has any information on setting up transdroid with rtorrent, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Re: rtorrent and transdroid

Try the following:

Download 'mod_scgi' from AUR:

$ yaourt -S mod_scgi

Add these lines to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf (in the appropriate place):

LoadModule scgi_module modules/mod_scgi.so
LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
Include conf/extra/php5_module.conf

Add this line to the end of httpd.conf:

SCGIMount /RPC2 127.0.0.1:5000

Then, restart the httpd daemon.

Add this line to the end of .rtorrent.rc:

scgi_port = localhost:5000

Then, restart rtorrent.

On your phone you must specify /RPC2 as the SCGI folder
