How do I check if my torrents are on a certain tracker? (lemmy.ml)

Let's say I have a list of 10 files and I enter a new tracker and want to start seeding those files that already being shared on the tracker.

How can I acheive that?

Moreover, it would be useful to show which files do not have any seeder on the tracker where I could jump right in.

Is there some script/ software for it?

I'm trying to understand what do you specifically ask. Tracker has web interface - there you see the list of torrents, and I think there you can sort by seeders. Tracker is just connect you to peers, also as far as I know there can be trackerrless torrents. If you have what is allready on tracker, you just point your torrent program to those files.

I have a couple of files ubuntu1.0, ubuntu2.0, ..., ubuntu20.0 and I'd like to share it with other people on a tracker, yet I do not know which ubuntu is already on the tracker. I have to search manually which file is already on it, and then I can add another .torrent file for the missing ubuntu version. Instead, a script could create a hash of each file, look up if each hash is already on the tracker, if so, download the .torrent file, and if not create a torrent file for it.

Is that clearer now?
