Initial Setup

Here, we'll be setting up NZBGet for the first time. In this guide we'll be doing the following tasks:

• Login to the NZBGet instance for the first time
• Change ControlUsername and ControlPassword
• Add Usenet indexers

You may also need the following:

• A Usenet service provider, you can find a list of different providers here: https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providers
• An indexer to obtain .nzb files, these are used to tell the server where to find the files

Please make yourself aware of the Ultra.cc Fair Usage Policy. Directly pointing any NZB client to download directly to (or worse try to download and unpack) on your cloud storage using Rclone Mount will create extreme strain on your slot's disk and WILL cause a 24 hour ban on accessing your cloud storage repeatedly. It is your responsibility to ensure usage is within acceptable limits. Ignorance is not an excuse.
