     1== Authentication == 
     2The daemon looks at the file ~/.config/deluge/auth for doing authentication.  The format of this file is straightforward, each line contains a username:password pair in plaintext. There should always be a 'localclient' entry for use by the UIs running locally by your user.

     4'''Note:''' 
     5If you do not have an auth file in your config folder, first run the daemon to have it created for you.

     18From the GtkUI, you will have to add the host with a username and password, if you don't do this, you won't be able to connect to the host or tell if it's online.
