SABnzbd Forums

Hi,
During a recent install on my Raspberry pi I was going through configuring SABnzbd and didn't enter a user name or password cos I didn't want one. The next time I tried to go in I was asked for user name and pasword. As I hadn't entered one I was refused access.
So, I deleted the .ini file and this time set up with a user name and password which I'm asked for every time I try to access SABnzbd.
Please tell me how to turn this access security off while still being able to get in.

Cheers,

Keith.

I have no idea how a username/password got into the INI file,
unless you (or, more likely, your browser's password manager) accidentally entered it in Config->General.
On Windows and OSX is trivial to reset through SABnzbd's desktop icon.
However, on an embedded system, you really have to go in and edit sabnzbd.ini

Thanks for trying to help.
There definatley wasn't anything entered in the user/password fields in general during the initial configuration set up. And it happened twice.
As I said I had to delete the .ini just to gain access, again as I said the same problem occurred.

How can I/do I edit the .ini to remove the request for a user/password?

It's a regular text file, containing keywords.
Look for section [misc]
username =
password =

Cool - thanks.

Cheers,

Keith.
