qBitorrent is the way, although I never tried Deluge

qBittorrent tends to be the popular one but all the standard FOSS clients should work fine with Sonarr (e.g. qBittorrent, Deluge, Transmission).

I don't have Transmission in front of me here to give you specific guidance but auth failed basically means you should double-check Transmission's web ui user/password/port number & make sure it's the same both there & in Sonarr. The same would apply for any other torrent client you want to set up in Sonarr.

I like deluge personally - qbittorrent is my fallback though.

Not the nost popular choice but I'm happy with Transmission. I figured out a a way to make my weird VPN subscription work with Haugene's docker image years back and it's working nicely for me.

deluge / qbittorrent

I use rtorrent with Flood as the frontend web ui.

The problem is sonarr is running as my user and transmission-daemon is root

I usually make a dedicated user for torrent clients. Works well. This allows me to run multiple instances of transmission in the vm, for example. Manage them through systemd services.

When i add /home/mariah/shows to sonarr it does nothing
