Quick question: "Optional authentication username."

Post by Warajected75 »

Noob here and am setting up SABnzbd. On the General tab at Security. Where it indicates putting in a username and password (which are both optional)…are these ones that I make up now for this first time? I didn’t miss anything earlier where they gave me one or anything like that. This is where I install my own username and password for the first time with SABnzbd….correct? Just don’t want to screw something up - thanks in advance
