I was already able to setup ktorrent webgui by loading the webgui plug-in and installing php5-cli on my machine.

I was able to access and login to ktorrent webgui by typing http://localhost:8080/ on my web browser.

My problem though is when I tried accessing the webgui using my WAN IP, I keep on getting an error telling me that I could not connect to the host.

Do I need to configure or install anything else aside from php5-cli inorder to make my ktorrent accessible from the internet?

Btw, I don't know if this is relevant but my machine doesn't have a web server installed. But from what I have read in one of the posts here, the plug-in has its own httpd server so a web server is not needed.

Appreciate any help that I can get.

Thanks.

Maybe you are behind a router. If so you must forward the webinterface port.
You should use upnp plugin and than enable forward port in webinterface options.

thanks for the help bro. when you mentioned using the upnp plug-in and enabling port forwarding of the webgui, i decided to check the local ip addr that I was using for my machine and found out that i forwarded port 8080 to the wrong ip addr.

made the necessary corrections and got the webgui to work using my WAN IP.
