you can get rtorrent from dag:

http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/rtorrent/

here's the User Guide:

if you've already downloaded, just copy the ISOs into your download  
location before you fire up the torrent; your client should detect  
that the torrent is already completely downloaded and start seeding  
it.  configure the client to seed forever, and you'll make a lot of  
people happy.
