Anonymous NNTP Connections? 501 Bad Authentication

Post by pschramm »

I'm having trouble configuring SABNZB to connect to my ISPs Newserver -

I can connect to the server fine (without username / password) in NewsReaders, other apps etc..

However SABNZB reports 501 bad auth in the logs..

Any help is appreciated !

thanks

Maybe you have filled out a username and/or password (maybe just a space) in the newsserver settings in SABnzbd?
