Starting with sabnzbd

Post by garderp2 »

Hello I just downloaded the sabnzbd for mac.

Can anyone please help me with the Startup Wizard.

I am unsure what Server details I have to put in, such as host, port etc.

I have an account with Newzbin.

I apologise, I am new to this.

Cheers.

Did you read http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/quick-setup ?

And: do you have access to a newsserver (newzbin is just a search engine). You probably have to buy this service (very few ISPs provide this for free).

EDIT: in the setup wizard, in the newsserver screen, there's a commercial banner for a newsserver. If you choose that banner & service, I believe it's good for the SABnzbd founding ...

Thank you so very much. It certainly clarifies things. I didnt get any server info from the newzbin that was confusing... Now I know it is just a search engine). Ill have to have a look to find about the news servers... Thank you very much.

EDIT Thanks again.. I've seen that one.. But originally I thought the newzbin was sufficient :) (first days for me)
