Hi.

I started off using Ubuntu and SABnzbd+ for a few weeks ago. And it works great :)
My only problem is that i has to start it from www.mydomain.com:8080.. Is there any way I change the settings so i can skip the :8080 port? So I could start it from www.mydomain.com/sabnzbd ? It would be to great help at my workplace since I'm blocked by a websense filter when i try to connect to my domain there..
Any way to get this to work?

Thanks in advance, and thanks for a great program.

Under Config -> General, you will find:

SABnzbd Port:
Port SABnzbd should listen on.


Normally that says 8080. You can change that to 80 (which is the normal web interface).
Please note:
- you should start SABnzbd as root because of port 80
- no other webserver should be running on your machine

But is there any other way to get around this?

The alternative is to "hide" behind an Apache server.

Hiding behind the apache server worked great :) Thanks for fast and good help
