sabnzbd active while looged out

Post by andyboutte »

I am running on mac os x and am wondering if there is a way I can run sabnzbd not as an application but just a normal website that would be accessible while all users are logged out?

Thanks.

... AFAIK only if sabnzbd is started as service, not if it's started from the commandline ...

Windows will terminate SABnzbd when you logout.
Unless you run it as a service or as a scheduled task (with some special settings).
On Linux you need to run it as a init.d job.

On my Linux, I use the SABnzbd source version, which I start from the command line. And, yes, it will stop when I logout (which I rarely do).

I don't use the sabnzbdplus from the repository (which I could run as a service), as it's often not as new as the source version, I find it more difficult to setup and I don't care too much about running SAB as a service.

I must confess I do use sabnzbdplus for one purpose: installing sabnzbdplus will take care of installing all the needed dependencies for SABnzbd source version. ;-)
