The easiest way to install it would be to enter: sudo apt-get install torrentflux

This will install TorrentFlux and all of the dependencies. The configuration is web-based and very easy.

admin@*******:~$ tar -xvzf torrentflux_2.4.tar.gz
tar: torrentflux_2.4.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
admin@********:~$ tar zxfv
tar: Old option `f' requires an argument.
Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.

Nope, there's a problem with you :)

It needs to be in your Home directory, not on your desktop which is where I am guessing it is! Move it and that command will work :)
