SABnzbd errno 61 when testing connection

[ozwaldca]

Hey guys trying to set up nas box for sabnzbd.

When i enter my log in information i get the following error: see attached.

I am able to log into jail through shell and ping the dns 8.8.8.8 and even the newsgroup name resolves.

I have port forwarded 563 to the ip of the jail.

you shouldn't be port forwarding to the jail, that is an outbound connection and doesn't need anything special setup.

if you can ping the hostname from the jail, im not sure why the Python process of sabnzbd can't.

Hi Joshua,

i was able to successfully get my SABnzbd to work by using the ip address of the news server. I just dont know why it would not accept the DNS name.

I found that there was no DNS (nameserver) set up in my jail.

1) I re added my plug in SABnzbd
2) Edit jail Advanced >Unchecked DHCP > set ip address ( 192.168.0.XXX) > Unchecked VIMAGE > OK
3) jails>sabnzbd_1>shell At this point i was able to ping IP's through the shell but not names.ping google.com
4) vi /etc/resolv.conf>i >nameserver 8.8.8.8> :w> :q

I am now able to ping both google .com and 8.8.8.8

This is probably not the correct way but at least it a start. IF there are other solution please let me know!

Thanks everyone for the help!

why did you say you could ping the newgroup hostname in your OP then, lol.

but, I think your method is fine

ok thanks for the thumbs up. After i enabled raw sockets i was able to ping from my Jail. before that i was not.

So i was able to ping the DNS after enabling raw sockets inside the jail. at that point though there was still no DNS server entered.

its all new to me....

Cheers

Worked for me, thanks, Oz!

Code:

2) Edit jail Advanced >Unchecked DHCP > set ip address ( 192.168.0.XXX) > Unchecked VIMAGE > OK
3) jails>sabnzbd_1>shell At this point i was able to ping IP's through the shell but not names.ping google.com
4) vi /etc/resolv.conf>i >nameserver 8.8.8.8> :w> :q
