Well I've got a linux server running in my closet now, and I would like to offload all of my torrenting to this box so that I can turn my computer off at night. I have a few requirements for the interface:

Needs to be cli or web-based. I'm going to be remote connecting, and don't even have X11 installed on the machine.

Needs to provide a single interface for torrents, as opposed to 1 torrent per instance.

Needs to support bandwidth management, both on a global level and on a torrent level. Management just like uTorrent is sufficient.

Needs to support encryption.

Easy to manage remotely. Logging into ssh to issue commands to the thing is acceptable, but borderline.

Basically I'm looking for a CLI or web-based version of utorrent that runs on linux. Things I've seen so far are rTorrent and torrentflux (torrentflux may be an issue because of my webserver setup on the server).

Any other suggestions or people who would like to vouc
 
Dunno about other options, but I use TorrentFlux, and it's served me very well.
 
Second on Azureus cli with html ui plugin, if you don't mind the use of about 40 meg of ram with sun-java6-jre.
