Earlier, I tried using the rtorrent  "enable_trackers=no" setting, but
the man page says its useful for use with the scheduler. It had no
effect on my attempts.

Anybody know how I can do the equivalent "distributed" for CentOS on 4.6
or 5.1? ATM, trying what I can recognize in the rtorrent man page, I've
not seen anything that my knowledge allows me to interpret as being able
to run so far.
