Hi All,

Just got a problem with multiple servers with the same host. I have to account with hitnews different usernames but if I try and put both in one just deletes the other its like sabnzbd thinks there the same even though there not. Any idea how I can put both in ?

Thanks Paul

Most news servers allow different ports, like 443 instead of 119.
As long as you have a unique server/port combination it's OK.
As a last resort you can have one of the definitions use the numerical IP
and the other the readable server name.

When designing the server administration we didn't assume that people
would have multiple accounts with one service.
It still strikes me as odd.

I am having the same problem.

Would it not be possible to add a name to the server so the server would not be overwritten?

So not just the servers address but put in a extra form-block.
