I have the ISO images , but how can I put these ISO's to be served via Bittorrent how others can accesss these iso's from my webserver through bittorrent To serve torrents, you need a tracker, and you need clients to seed. Fortunately, your server can work as both. On the subject of trackers: There are quite a few PHP trackers around, though the one I use is Torrent Trader Lite. (http://www.torrenttrader.com/) This is a lightweight tracker that stores all its information in flatfiles, so no rdbms is necessary. This should be placed on a publicly accessible URL, so that the people who wish to download via bittorrent can use it. You may also consider creating and uploading torrents to a popular public tracker, such as The Pirate Bay, to boost exposure and reduce the amount of software you must deal with. I would suggest avoiding registration-required trackers if you're hoping for impulse downloads, though, as mandatory registration can be a bit of a turnoff for a lot of people. On the subject of clients: There are a myriad of bittorrent clients in existence, but most of them require some form of graphical interface. You've found one of the best for console downloading, but it still can't be run in the background (ignoring for the moment running things in screen). The software I use for downloading torrents is TorrentFlux (http://www.torrentflux.com/). It is a PHP webapp frontend to BitTornado (a fork of BitTorrent) designed to run the torrents in the background, while providing a pretty interface for controlling them. As this will act as your seed, this should be kept private and password-protected. Best of all, both of these solutions can be run through your current webserver infrastructure, via virtual hosts or simple subdirectories. After getting your tracker and client set up, you can use TorrentFlux to create a .torrent file for your chosen ISO or group of ISOs, specify your tracker's announce URL, register the .torrent file with your tracker (if necessary) and start seeding, and your bittorrent-savvy visitors can torrent to their heart's content. A big notice, though: BitTorrent won't initially save bandwidth, especially if your server is the only seeder, and may actually be much slower if the files aren't very popular, as there won't be as many other visitors to help distribute chunks of the files.

Re: bittorrent consuming 100% cpu
I'd recommend transmission. You can get the source from http://transmission.m0k.org/. You can configure it for console use with ./configure --disable-gtk gmake. It needs GNU make, BSD make won't work. Uses very little resources as it's written in C, so your python port won't matter.

RE: re bittorrent
Not to mention, if there are enough clients hosting, then downloads can often be faster. Why? Because partial downloads can be pulled from multiple sources. I just downloaded the miniinst iso in under 15min at an average rate of about 360KB/s from a pool of 10 servents (bittorrent server/clients). The only way I could get it that fast with FTP is if I used getright or someother ftp client that allows for splitting a download across multiple FTP servers. Now of course the real benefit comes just after a release when everyone and their uncle is downloading a copy and the FTP servers are extra busy. When things slow down a bit it's not as big a benefit.
