  Webui is on port 9091, the settings.json file in /config has extra settings not available in the webui. Stop the container before editing it or any changes won't be saved.
  ## Securing the webui with a username/password.

  this requires 3 settings to be changed in the settings.json file.

  `Make sure the container is stopped before editing these settings.`

  `"rpc-authentication-required": true,` - check this, the default is false, change to true.

  `"rpc-username": "transmission",` substitute transmission for your chosen user name, this is just an example.

  `rpc-password` will be a hash starting with {, replace everything including the { with your chosen password, keeping the quotes.

  Transmission will convert it to a hash when you restart the container after making the above edits.

  ## Updating Blocklists Automatically

  This requires `"blocklist-enabled": true,` to be set. By setting this to true, it is assumed you have also populated `blocklist-url` with a valid block list.

  The automatic update is a shell script that downloads a blocklist from the url stored in the settings.json, gunzips it, and restarts the transmission daemon.

  The automatic update will run once a day at 3am local server time.
