SABnzbd Forums

Good evening,

I am on Virgin Media and ofcourse can no longer access Newzbin.

I am looking at using the Special Setting inside sab to use a cgi proxy to do this.

I have tried adding the URL with / without http:// and it's not working, Any clues?

It's running purely on port 80, http://xxxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxx/cgi-b ... wzbin2.es/

Many thanks

Doing more research, Looks like http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-special and http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-special-0-7 are different, Has it been taken out of the latest version?

What did you set, and what is the error message?

I don't use newzbin, but looking at sabnzbd.ini it says:
So ... did you set the url in the [newzbin] part?

What kind of proxy is this?
A ordinary http proxy won't work, because SABnzbd doesn't support any.
Only a transparent proxy that will translate one host name to another will work.

It's nph-proxy.cgi a web based proxy (just encapsulates stuff i believe).

I know SAB doesn't support a proxy, But this not a proxy in that sense, Just appends a bit to the URL.

I don't think I have that in my sabnzbd.ini Sander, Though will check when I get home.

In that case replace the newzbin2.es text in the sabnzbd.ini file by the new server name.
This page describes how to go about it.

I tried it,

Isn't working

The "getaddrinfo" error message means that the address "xxxx.xxx.co.uk" doesn't resolve to an IP address.
Can you ping that address?
Please PM this "secret" url to me.

BTW: I hope you listed a fake newzbin password
