Running SAB as a certain user

Post by pow »

Hi guys,

I run sab on a server which has a couple of shares setup for downloading and nzb. Now those share are only accessible by a certain user. Is it possible to run sab as that user on the server?

Yes. If you run it as a "scheduled task", you can tell Windows to use a specific user account.
If you run it as a service, this should also be possible.
