http://geekery.blog.com/category/linux/transmission-rpms/If i remember well what i did, i have downloaded all the rpm and i have made a "yum locall install" to install them...or you can follow the documentation
rpm -ivh libevent-2.0.10-1geekery.$(uname -i).rpm
rpm -Uvh transmission-2.31-1geekery.$(uname -i).rpm transmission-cli-2.31-1geekery.$(uname -i).rpm transmission-common-2.31-1geekery.$(uname -i).rpm transmission-daemon-2.31-1geekery.$(uname -i).rpm
. After you need to modify the transmission file for allowing your connection.
. So first, stop the daemon:
/etc/init.d/transmission-daemon stop
Now edit the configuration file:
nano /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json
