Removing bit torrent content from DNS-323

I just got my DNS-323 delivered and have been playing around with it today. So far, so good, but one thing I can't figure out is how to delete content from the BT (bittorrent) directory. When I installed the BT client, it created a 'BT' directory in Volume_1. When files have completed downloading, I don't have a problem copying to my desktop or accessing them, but when I try to delete I get 'Access Denied'. For the most part, I don't mind having them there, since that's how P2P works. But what about a file that was corrupt, or when I run out of space?

Any ideas how to get this to work? The only solution I could find was using fun_plug and telnetting into the box, but that looks pretty complicated and I'd rather not mess with it and brick my box. Any other ideas?

Thanks!

PS - By default, the 'BT' directory has R/W access to all users. I've tried creating different users/groups with different permissions, and nothing works!
 
I had the same problem. I had to telnet in and run a chmod -R a+rwx to the BT folder... I found the Bit Torrent client too simplistic for my needs and only used it when I wanted to see how it worked. In my opinion there isn't enough processor power to run dlna server, bit torrent, ftp, ssh, etc, etc...
