The idea behind that is that you know for certain that the stop IP and port is correct. If I were to remove this and you would change the IP and port in sabnzbd and not in the config file, the call to the shutdown script would fail.

Oh I get the need to use the IP and port settings (set in /etc/conf.d/sabnzbd) to STOP the daemon. What I don't understand is why we use them to START the daemon. The way it is now, this doesn't allow you to change the IP from within sabnzbd, it always changes back when you restart the daemon. By the way, I noticed that you actually can use 0.0.0.0 as $SABNZBD_IP and it is still able to stop properly using the rc script. So my whole reason to make a comment is kind of void :)

The IP and port are used to shutdown sabnzbd. I think it is really unfortunate too that the best way to shutdown sabnzbd is through the web api instead of through calling the python file. If the last were possible, the whole configuration file could be removed.

I was wondering why the rc script sets the IP and port when starting the daemon? It doesn't really serve a purpose as far as I can tell? The IP and port are set in sabnzbd.ini anyway. The way it is now, I couldn't set the IP to 0.0.0.0 (which I need to to, because I need to access from localhost AND remote) using the $SABNZBD_IP variable, because then the stop script doesn't work (kind of hard to send a command to 0.0.0.0 :-) ). I just removed '-s $SABNZBD_IP:$SABNZBD_PORT' from the start script. Now I can set the IP to what I want in the General config of sabnzbd, and I just leave the $SABNZBD_IP set to 127.0.0.1. This seems like the most logical to me? I'm no expert by any means, so please correct me if I'm missing something!

Ah I see, the package has been renamed because pyopenssl is for python 3.1 now. I'll fix the package.

I had to install python2-pyopenssl to get it working with ssl.

Well, got it all nice and working now, made myself the user in /etc/conf.d/sabnzbd and "chown -R myself /opt/sabznbd" to prevent "can't write logs" -errors. I find it pretty hard to configure a standalone, boot up starting sabnzbd! Hope all my comments will help someone.

Strangely it also overwrites the folders I define (for monitoring, complete etc.) when using the startup script.

Ok, thanx for the info :) To be honest I was complaining based on older observations, when I opened /etc/con.d/sabnzbd instructions were right there. Although it asks for the API key, not the session key which had me a bit confused at the start (but not for long ;) ). Another tip, if you want sabnzbd to be accessible from other computers you will be told to change the "host" value, in my case it worked by choosing this to be the same as the actual IP. You can change this in the web interface and in /opt/sabnzbd/sabnzbd.ini but it will revert on every boot... until you set SABNZBD_IP="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" to the IP you want for the "host" value. Just putting it here to prevent other from looking as long as me :) Good work, keep it up!

The session key is there to prevent a certain web exploit: http://secunia.com/advisories/34537/. The session key can be found under Config -> General if I remember correctly. The key has to be addded to /etc/conf.d/sabnzbd because I use an API command to shut down sabnzbd. Without the key, that won't work. Maybe I can find another way to shut it down, using the python file. That way, the session key won't be needed.
