TransMac is a simple application to open hard drives, flash drives, CD/DVD/Bluray, high density floppy disks and DMG files on Windows.
To use the program, you just have to insert the drive you want to read, and the program will recognize it automatically. The same goes for DMG files, which you can open by simply right-clicking on the file and selecting the option TransMac.
It should be noted, however, that while you can use the program to view files and drives, you still can't install Mac only applications on Windows.
Along with this basic option to view files, the program lets you record the content of open files and devices to all manner of disks.
TransMac is a really interesting tool that can get you out of a hole if you ever need to access Mac files on a Windows operated machine.

I've used rTorrent and wTorrent (which I've already posted how to set up) and also ruTorrent and various Web UIs for rTorrent but I've came to the conclusion that the best way (for me at least) for remote Bittorrent download is Transmission Remote GUI - I've been using it for a few days now and love it. Please note that I've only tested it on a remote Debian server but I've adapted everything for Ubuntu so it should work for it too.
In this article, I will cover installing and configuring transmission-daemon in a headless (but should work on a normal Debian / Ubuntu install too) Debian or Ubuntu machine.

To run transmission-daemon, you need to install transmission-cli, transmission-common and transmission-daemon. Please note that I have tested this on the latest transmission-cli (1.76).

This is optional - if you want to install the latest Transmission, use the following PPA:
Then install the required packages:

Debian Sid and Squeeze come with the latest Transmission version, however, Debian Lenny does not. We could compile it of curse but I was too lazy this time so I used the packages from Sid and installed them in Lenny.
-For Debian Sid, Squeeze or newer:
-For Debian Lenny:
Libevent is needed so we are going to install this too.
-i386:
-amd64:
-for both:
Then, install these packages:

If you are reading this how-to, you must be wanting to run transmission-daemon remotely, through transmisson-remote-gui so we must make the necessary adjustments:
(For Ubuntu, add 'sudo' in front of the command)
Now you can click Ctrl + C to cancel (close transmission-daemon)
And make the torrents download dir writable:
Explanations:
Replace the text in bold with your values (it's self explanatory).
The -f option sets transmission-daemon to run in the foreground (not as a daemon) for this session so we can easily close it using Ctrl + C.
'-t' sets the authentication to true.
'-g' sets the Transmission Daemon config folder. Without setting it, ~/.config/transmission-daemon will be used.
Further configuring (required for remote usage!)
Setting the allowed hosts to '*' does not work through the transmission-daemon -a option for some reason, so we must edit the newly created config file. You can, of course, set the allowed hosts to just your IP, but I for instance have a dynamic IP address so I have to set it to '*'. Let's proceed:
Firstly, make sure transmission-daemon is not running, or else, the changes to it's settings file will not be saved (it's a known bug):
(if using Ubuntu, simply put sudo in front of the above command)
Now let's edit the settings file:
-For Ubuntu:
-For Debian:
-Both:
Look for this line:

'rpc-whitelist':

and set it to your remote IP or to '*'.
Then press Ctrl + O and then Ctrl + X (save and exit).

Now let's start transmission-daemon. Simply type:
or:
(for Ubuntu, use sudo)
It should use all the configuration we used earlier. If for some reason you cannot connect using the Transmission Remote GUI, stop transmission-daemon and check the configuration file.
To stop it:
Start it again with:
The transmission-daemon init.d script should already be created, but in case it's not (for older versions), see THIS PAGE.

Download Transmission Remote GUI.
This is actually pretty easy, there are binary files for Windows, Linux (all) and Mac, so download the desired format for your OS and run it.
In Linux, all you have to do is make the file called 'transgui' executable (chmod +x transgui) and then double click it.
To set it to connect to your newly set up Ubuntu / Debian machine, simply go to Tools > Options, enter the remote host IP (leave the port as is - it should be ok), and also the username and password you've set like I have explained in the transmission-daemon configuration above:

(the info in the screenshot was removed for obvious reasons =) ).

Note: you can also use Transmission Remote Java, an alternative to Transmission Remote GUI, but I don't really like Java so I choose Transmission Remote GUI.
