Configure General

Web server

The user interface of SABnzb is a web-site. You can modify some web site behaviour here.

Host The internal webserver needs to listen on an IP address. The default is "localhost" (127.0.0.1), this means that other computers cannot communicate with SABnzbd. For more information see command-line-parameters.

127.0.0.1 or [::1] or localhost = Access from this computer only
empty = Access from other computers, always use the host IP
0.0.0.0 = Listens on multiple interfaces (both local IP and localhost). Recommended if you are running into problems
Port The internal webserver needs an IP port to listen on. The default port is 8080. Try another one if this address is already occupied by another program on your computer.
Web username You may want to limit access to the web interface to people knowing a username and password for the interface. WARNING: this is not a very secure method!
Web password See "username"
Skin SABnzbd comes with a few different skins (web interface styles). Pick one here and click on save. For the skin to become active, you have to shutdown SABnzbd and restart it again. There is a seperate section on skins. Warning: some interfaces will only work with Firefox.
Color schema Some skins have multiple colour schemas. Pick one here, it will be effective immediately
Secondary Interface You can have a second user interface, using another skin. This will become visible as http://host:port/sabnzbd/m
