NZB are .rar compressed files that broken into segments that are small enough to post into usenet.  So we&#8217;ll need a host that keeps a deep archive of usenet posts, doesn&#8217;t track user behavior as well as maintains a lenient policy to store content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newshosting.com\/best-usenet-deal\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.newshosting.com\/best-usenet-deal\/\">newshosting.com<\/a>.  You can use whoever you like.  You&#8217;ll need the NNTP server address and your username and password to configure Sabnzbd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NZB Tracker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll also need an NZB tracker which tracks the NZB files that have been posted to usenet.  It&#8217;s similar to a bittorrent tracker (if you&#8217;re familiar with those).  I use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nzbplanet.net\/\">nzbplanet<\/a>.  They have a very janky registration process which you&#8217;ll have to use because the free account doesn&#8217;t allow you the functionality you&#8217;ll need.  There are other indexers, but I&#8217;m not going to review them or explain how to use them (because I&#8217;ve never used them).  From here you&#8217;ll need an API URL and an API Key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve got these two services setup, we&#8217;ll move on to the Sabnzbd container install and configuration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"entry-summary\">\nBefore we get started we&#8217;ll need to setup a usenet host and&hellip;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/bullyrooks.com\/index.php\/2021\/01\/27\/sabnzbd-prerequisites\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &ldquo;Sabnzbd Prerequisites&rdquo;<\/span>&hellip;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,18],"tags":[27,21,28],"course":[17],"class_list":["post-632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-home-networking","category-media","tag-nzb","tag-sabnzbd","tag-usenet","course-media-server-appliations","entry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":670,"url":"https:\/\/bullyrooks.com\/index.php\/2021\/01\/27\/configure-sabnzbd\/","url_meta":{"origin":632,"position":0},"title":"Configure SABnzbd","author":"Bullyrook","date":"January 27, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"In the last section we got SABnzbd installed, now we need to configure it and make sure that we can successfully download a file via an NZB Configuring the Wizard We should be at the sabnzbd page via the port we configured (http:\/\/${your nas ip address}:28080) Select english and hit\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Home Networking&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Home Networking","link":"https:\/\/bullyrooks.com\/index.php\/category\/technology\/home-networking\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bullyrooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-58.png?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bullyrooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-58.png?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bullyrooks.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/image-58.png?resize=700%2C400&ssl=1 2x"},"classes":[]},{"id":630,"url":"https:\/\/bullyrooks.com\/index.php\/2021\/01\/26\/what-are-the-media-server-applications\/","url_meta":{"origin":632,"position":1},"title":"What are the Media Server Applications?","author":"Bullyrook","date":"January 26, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"In order to retrieve content for your media server, you'll need to install a collection of applications.
