This has been tested and works well on a ARM9 Linkstation Live. Should work on others. We are using HellaNZB which is a NZB-based usenet "leech" client which also PAR checks and un-archives the files you have downloaded.

Prerequisites
There are 2 options:
Stock firmware/jtymod
Installation
ipkg update ipkg upgrade ipkg install python py24-cheetah py24-cherrypy py24-elementtree py24-celementtree py24-yenc par2cmdline unrar unzip
This installs Python and all the dependencies needed including UnRar, PAR checking and YEnc decoder.
Download SABnzbd from http://www.sabnzbd.org/download/ but make sure you download the "sources" version as that includes the actual python scrips we need for NAS box. Unarchive wherever you want (but I will continue with an example). This can be done within Windows or Linux and I unarchived to
/mnt/disk1/shared/sabnzbd
Configuration
You'll need to configure SABnzbd which is easiest done using the web interface which you can access via
http://localhost:8080/sabnzbd/
Edit the config to include your Usenet providers server and your own choices as to whether to enable PAR or RAR checking.
Remember, the Linkstation is a NAS box not a high spec PC so don't be too greedy on the number of connections as it might actually make it go slower. For example, I can happily max out a 4Mbit line with 4 connections. Try different numbers and see how you get on.
