I have a pi, running raspbian connected to a USB3 drive. I run a samba server, minidlna, transmission-daemon.
I had some trouble initially setting up the transmission-daemon to work from outside of the wan. Eventually it worked.
Then I installed Apache2, it worked for a time but now the transmission web gui is timing out when I want to connect to it remotely.
I found this command, it might be of some use.
root@raspberrypi:~# transmission-remote -t all -S
Unexpected response: <h1>401: Unauthorized</h1>Unauthorized User: deflate, gzip
Am I correct when I say the config file is in /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json ?
I manually told transmission to use that folder.
this is my config file:
root@raspberrypi:~# cat /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json

Previously reinstalling the daemon worked when it suddenly decided to die on me. Now however, a reinstall isn't doing the trick anymore.
When I go to :9091 the browsers just keeps on loading. I'm not home right now but the port is open and forwarded, and I can ssh to the pi.
UPDATE When I came home, tried it on my cellphone locally, it didn't work. Then I went up to my room and tried on my gaming desktop and both lan and wan access work. Tried on my phone with hostname:9091, nothing. Tried on my phone again with localIP:9091, it works. Tried on my phone with wan hostname:9091, it works.
I'm not a networking kind of guy but this isn't working properly and I would like to know why.
UPDATE 2:
Could it be that my ISP is the culprit? (they block many ports for "security reasons") Or could it be that the network at my office has something to do with it. Is there a proper way to test this?
