Migrating SABnzbd - Windows to Ubuntu

Post by Black.Ice. »

Hello all,

I recently reformated my hard drive and am now making the shift to ubuntu. I saved all the config files from windows onto my external. I am now trying to import my previous settings into Ubuntu's SABnzbd.

The whole linux file architecture is new to me so can anyone help me out?

Thanks again

Your sabnzbd.ini file goes into the hidden folder .sabnzbd (starts with a dot) in your home folder.
On Windows this is the location:
http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-v2

That's all you need to copy.
The paths may need changing through, check them before downloading anything.
