How to separate history with multiple instances

Post by Vorkbaard »

I'm running several instances of 0.6.9 on a Server 2008 R2 server. I set it up so multiple users can have their individual instances and download to their user folder.

This all works great but for one thing: they all see all of the history, so if user A downloads file A and user B downloads file B, file A and B also end up in C's history. Putting the logfiles of the instances in separate folders didn't help.

How can I prevent the users from seeing each other's history?

You did not set it up right.
Two instances of SABnzbd have no knowledge of each other,
as long as you make sure that all folders are separate.
The best way to do this is to use the -f <folder> parameter and give
each instance its own folder.
