My RPi is just a torrent box and media server. I use SMB to drop .torrent files downloaded from my Windows desktop directly to a directory on the Pi, and Transmission immediately starts downloading it. My router forwards port 22 to it as well, so I can SSH to it remotely and then tunnel VNC connections to my desktop through it. It's exceptionally rare for me to do this, but it HAS come in handy before.
