Installing and Running rTorrent

I am trying to download some learning material/manuals. I have a seedbox running with 80GB Disk space and 128 MB Ram on Ubuntu 18.04

I have installed rtorrent as per the below link
https://rtorrent-docs.readthedocs.io...torrent-basics

now my config files .rtorrent.rc location ( ~/.rtorrent.rc) as follows

To start the rtorrent I am running following script
Quote:

#! /bin/bash # # rTorrent startup script # umask 0027 cd $(dirname "$0") # Check for running process export RT_SOCKET=$PWD/.scgi_local test -S $RT_SOCKET && lsof $RT_SOCKET >/dev/null \ && { echo "rTorrent already running"; exit 1; } test ! -e $RT_SOCKET || rm $RT_SOCKET # Clean up after rTorrent ends _at_exit() { stty sane test ! -e $RT_SOCKET || rm $RT_SOCKET } trap _at_exit INT TERM EXIT # Start rTorrent (optionally with configuration loaded # from the directory this script is stored in) rtorrent -D -I # -n -o import=$PWD/rtorrent.rc

If I look at the watch directory I have the following two folders

/home/nova21/rtorrent//watch/load
/home/nova21/rtorrent/watch/start

1) Where should I place .torrent file?
2) Will it start downloading automatically once I place .torrent file?
3) After downloading will it seed automatically?
4) I want to run this script in startup mode. I came across this following.
Quote:

You can call it in a simple shell prompt first, but for normal operation it must be launched in a tmux session, like so: tmux -2u new -n rTorrent -s rtorrent "~/rtorrent/start; exec bash"

Since it is seedbox in terminal mode, I can not access UI if it is executed during start. I want to seed as well as download torrent automatically when a file is placed in appropriate directory. What I need to do?

Thank you
