## What is SABnzbd?
|

From their [website](https://sabnzbd.org/):

|
|
So, SABnzbd is going to allow us to download binaries from Usenet servers. Pretty cool!
|
|
|
|
## Initial configuration
|
|
|
|
In your browser, go to [http://{your-ip-address}:8080/]() and you'll see SABnzbd setup page. First, choose your language and click on "Start Wizard":

|
|
|
|
After choosing your language, you'll be prompted to choose a server. Newshosting usually has good deals, so it's a good choice, but you can always use whatever server you want.
|
|
|
|
When you have your server information ready, click on "Next".

|
|
You should now see the final page on the wizard, congratulations!
|
|
|
|
You'll also notice that the Completed and Uncompleted download folders are not in the right location. We'll fix that in a bit.
|
|
|
|
Finally, click on "Go to SABnzbd".
|
|
