From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What default?
I'm guessing one of the services makes that change on startup. Start them one by one and see. Then check its configuration.
Personally I just run them in containers. Much less mess.
yep this, going to find some docker compose file with everything and strip it back to what I want
I've been trying to do the same with this Plex & *arr stack, but am brand new to docker and dont know what I'm doing.

it's high time to consider jellyfin. plex is moving streaming to their paid subscription
What is it you don’t understand, perhaps I can guide you.
Do you have any technical knowledge? Like navigating systems or any programming experience?
I only ask those as if yes, then watching a couple of videos about docker-compose should be sufficient. Once you have an understanding of what it does you can rely on the docs more then.
Even asking ChatGPT for an example docker-compose file for what you want would be a great start.
I often find, and its true in this case, that the guides I see show detailed installation instructions, and then say 'then simply replace the variables in the config, et voila'.
I have my variables, but dont know where, or exactly how to put them in the docker compose file. Like do I replace all of them? Do I need the '$' signs?
Anyway, you're right, some videos should make it easier. I'll have a look, thanks.
I'm still working on learning about containers but not quite there yet.
Default being, when each service is installed it creates an individual user/group (sonarr, radarr, sabnzbd) and the folder that is created in /var/lib/ for each service is set to those particular users/groups.
At this time, sonarr and radarr seem to be ok (I will need to double check after an update to them) but SABnzbd reverts the folder permissions every time I reboot and complains whenever I reboot since it can't write to the db or log files because the permissions change. I have looked at the config but didn't see anything outstanding that would indicate a reason it would be changing. Unless I am missing a different config file somewhere outside of that folder. There aren't any settings from within the web interface pointing to that either, at least from what I could see.
