To start off I am an Ubuntu user not an all around linux user. I don't really know linux I just know how to get this to work and its super simple...I think. This is a nub tut, written by a nub that is.
1. get a ipv6 server to connect to
2. install miredo
3. install sabnzbdplus
4. setup sabnzbdplus (not by me. from sabnzbd's website)
5. optional additional setup, auto download TVshows(works for windows too) and set sabnzbd up to autostart at system boot
1. lets get those free servers
self updating list of current server connectivityhttp://wattcher.015.info/newsserver.txtLink down. Try http://test-ipv6.com/
no sign up for this one. max speed ~150kb/s
host: newszilla6.xs4all.nl
port: 119
username:
password:
connections: 3
there is no username or password
sign up for free ipv6 at xsnews. max speed ...well i have had it at 2Mb/s
http://www.xsnews.com/ipv6/ipv6_aanvraag.phpRegistration closed SOL
host: reader.ipv6.xsnews.nl
port: 119
username:
password:
connections: 3
They will email you the username and password
For one day only try
http://just4today.net/
go there and get the server name, username, password, # of connections
Keep that that info for later you will need it
2. okay time to install miredo as the ipv6 tunnel. thanks to them ipv6 tunnel is easy http://www.remlab.net/miredo/
can do command line style
or use the ubuntu software center on your Applications menuCode:sudo apt-get install miredo
search for it like i did and click install
You can test your ipv6 at this point. I have just found this site which works well for mehttp://wattcher.015.info/check-ipv6-refresh.htmlDown. Try http://test-ipv6.com/ You can google whats my ipv6 and click another site but many showed mine not working when it was. you can also ping6 ipv6.google.com if you know how
3. install sabnzbdplus. thanks to the sab team and community. http://sabnzbd.org/
same deal command line
or the software centerCode:sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus
you only have to install the one i have selected the rest will be install along with it.
4. Now sabnzbdplus is installed lets follow the first start guide they gave use. To start sabnzbplus ALT+F2 and input
then click Run. It will launch the program for the first time and direct you to the setup wizard. If your browser didn't open, open your internet browser and go to http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/Code:sabnzbdplus
follow the guide instructions and have your servers from step one ready. PS. I like smpl best as a skin
All from http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/quick-setup
...from http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/quick-setup
The Wizard On all operating systems, on first-launch of SABnzbd you'll be presented with our quick-start wizard, which will hopefully get you up and running as soon as possible. Here's a quick walk through the steps of the wizard. All settings in the wizard can be changed later on under the various Configuration pages.
http://sabnzbd.org/resources/wiki/wizard_language.png
Language Selection
SABnzbd 0.5 ships with five language choices: German, English, French, Dutch, Swedish and Danish. Pick one, click "Start Wizard"
http://sabnzbd.org/resources/wiki/wizard_theme.png
Theme Selection
There are three themes to select from: smpl (New Default), Plush and Classic (Old Default). Pick one, click "Next".
http://sabnzbd.org/resources/wiki/wizard_access.png
Access Options
First, determine if you want SABnzbd to be locally or remotely accessible. If you've chosen to make it remotely accessible (or if you're just paranoid) you will likely want to set a login and password for the web interface, which you can also do on this page. Then, if you want to enable HTTPS ( see here for more details ) you can turn it on here. Additionally, at the bottom of the page you can determine if you want SABnzbd to launch a browser when it starts. You should probably turn this off if you have SABnzbd set to automatically launch at startup.

Server Setup
On this page, enter the server information provided by your news host. If you are using SSL, be sure to tick the SSL checkbox. Once you've entered your server details, click the "Test Server" button to determine if the connection works.

Index Site Options
If you have an account at NZBMatrix, enter your login details here to be able to use the site integration functionality in SABnzbd.
http://sabnzbd.org/resources/wiki/wizard_restart.png
Restart
You've reached the end of the wizard! Once you've reached this page, SABnzbd will automatically restart. Please wait for it to finish. After a few seconds you'll be presented with a link to http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd. You should bookmark this link, as it's how you'll access SABnzbd in the future.
5. set where your files download to
go to the folders page from http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd . I have mine changed from the default to the setting I want. I did notice that by default they have
in ubuntu the downloads folder is upper case D Downloads so sab makes a new lower case d downloads folder. I didnt like that so I changed it to an upper case D. Then deleted the extra folders. they will prolly fix this soon its just a typo for the deb install. The locations shown are from your home folder on. If you want to set it somewhere else do it like this and start with /Code:downloads/complete downloads/incomplete
fill in the location you want. I have all mine dump into my Downloads folder not the Downloads/complete folder so mine isCode:/directory/directory/.../.../...
if you just putCode:/home/USERNAME/Downloads
it will auto create a complete folder and set it to download to itCode:Downloads
thats where and a little how on setting up your downloads folder. Now lets download TV shows automatically so you don't even have to search for the .nzbs.
I believe there will be a free replacement for this in the coming weeks
Big thanks tohttp://medianzb.comfor providing this service. take a look at there about page.http://medianzb.com/about.phpSite Down
Auto TV download.
got tohttp://medianzb.comSite Down
select HD or SD TV shows and then check the shows you want to auto download. At the bottom of the page click generate feed.
now you have a page with a couple links you want to keep. The top one goes into sabnzbdplus via the web interface you have been using. The second is a link to the page you are looking at and is used to modify it later. example: you come back to that page link later and can check or uncheck shows and click generate feed at the bottom again and you have updated your downloads list that is being sent to sabnzbdplus for download.
Take the top link and paste it into the RSS page of sab. You can name it what you want.
click add
now u must check the feed to enable it and click save.
thats it. The feed is checked every 60 minutes by default for new files to download. The time interval can be adjusted on the "General" page near the bottom there is a setting for "RSS Checking Interval:" default is 60 and MEDIAnzb only updates every 20 minutes as per there about page. So I set mine at 25 minutes. MEDIAnzb recommends that
So be gentle its a free service don't abuse. BTW this works for windows too.The shows are updated every 20 minutes using several websites as source, please do not poll your personal RSS feed more than that, preferably even less - if you hammer your feed, you will be blocked.
If you want to to have sab run at system boot and not have to start it manually after the computer boots its really easy.
press ALT+F2 and the run box pops up.
put inCode:gksu gedit /etc/default/sabnzbdplus
Click run and this will open
Where i have my USER blurred you put in the USERNAME that you log into the computer as and save then exit now sab will autostart at system boot.
thats all for now just click around on the sabnzbplus interface and find stuff one usefull tip is to go to the servers page and test your servers with the built in test button.
thats my .02 on how to d/l usenet for free
for fun my desktop screenshot
