Hi,

Since a few days I get the error message: Incorrect parameter, Server address "newszilla.xs4all.nl:119" is not valid. In the config--> servers menu are no servers defined any more, and i am not able to add a new server. Everytime i try to add a new server i get the same error message.
I tried:
- disabling the firewall, no succes
- removed and reinstalled the qpkg Python and SABnzbD, no succes
- to input another server (download2day.nl), no succes
- pinged newszilla.xs4all.nl (succesfull)
- my provider XS4all didn't change anything, but in that case the download2day server should have worked, and it didn't

It seems all causes outside the NAS are not the problem. Something is different inside the QNAP NAS drive? I'm a little lost here. Can someone help me out here?

Equipment:
QNAP NAS 109II pro
SABnzbd 0.4.11

Could very well be an error in the DNS setup ofr the NAS and/or Python implementation.
The simplest work-around it to use the numerical IP address of newszilla.
