Oh. Strange: 0.0.0.0 is good. Have you installed a firewall on your Ubuntu server? If so, can you disable it?

And: is there another sabnzbd.ini on your system? Check with "sudo updatedb ; locate sabnzbd.ini"
na, no firewall as far as i can tell. only firewall i have is hardware on my netgear wireless router. i have already enabled port forwarding for http port as well as telnet as i am current accessing my ubunu server at work.

anyways it appears there are two sabnzbd.ini files:
/root/.sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini
/windows/mediahdd1/sabnzbd.ini

The output of ps -ef means that SABnzbd is not running. So go back to step 1: check with "lynx http://localhost:8080/" that SABnzbd is running and post the result here.

Good. Now go to your other computer on your LAN, start your webbrowser, and surf to http://192.168.0.3:8080/

My advice: You first have to check that you can access SABnzbd on your Ubuntu server from your LAN. Only if that works, you should proceed.
