Is there a way to secure Media server?

Postby drixon » Sun Apr 20, 2014 7:59 pm

Hi folks,

Is there any trick to secure the media server, minidlna or the others, by restricting them to stream only to a specified IP addresses?

I've got my neighbor who shares some time my wireless connection (and also when I have visitors in my house) they could see all my private pictures and videos that are streamed from my Lacie cloudbox.

Thanks in advance.

The other ones I don't know

Yes, you're 100% right, it restricts access by IP and MAC + profiles

I've just tried it, when the IP/MAC are not entered, it says Access Denied on phone application.

That's Great, you're a real saver dear fvdw :-D , Thank you very much
