Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
Transmission version: 2.84_2
https://imgur.com/jC0N1V1
FreeNAS version: FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201505130355
Running in VirtualBox on Win 8.1
(I set the whole thing up this week, so it's all the latest versions)
cat /etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf.local | grep transmission:
root@transmission_1:/ # cat /etc/rc.conf /etc/rc.conf.local | grep transmission
cat: /etc/rc.conf.local: No such file or directory
hostname="transmission_1"
hostname="transmission_1"
transmission_download_dir=""
transmission_enable="YES"
Note: /etc/ contains the following rc* files:
rc
rc.bsdextended
rc.conf
rc.d
rc.firewall
rc.initdiskless
rc.resume
rc.sendmail
rc.shutdown
rc.subr
rc.suspend
ls -l /usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home
root@transmission_1:/ # ls -l /usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home
total 84
drwxr-xr-x 2 transmission transmission 2 May 21 21:02 blocklists
-rw------- 1 transmission transmission 382 May 21 22:12 dht.dat

Thanks again for your help.
EDIT: also I'm not sure if this is normal behavior. I noticed that the settings.json file is set to rw- --- ---, so I changed it to rw- rw- rw- (666). That didn't solve the problem, if I enable "start when added", then refresh the page, the option will be unchecked. However, what I noticed is that if I disable and re-enable transmission from the freenas gui, the permissions of that file are reset back to rw- --- ---. I don't know if that is the default behavior, but essentially that file gets reset back to default every restart.
