Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS: Disabled "Allow Remote Connections"

Hello,

I just need a pointer on how to re-enable the "allow remote connections" setting via CLI. My emby media server is on Ubuntu server 20.04 LTS using Docker 24.0.7. Since it's just a headless server, I don't have access to any GUI to simply re-check the box. Sorry for brevity here, but this is pretty much all there is to my problem. It was a complete user-error... Thanks for the help!

I ended up finding the correct file and line to fix my issue! For those landing on this page:

1. `cd [your-docker-config-directory]/appdata/emby/config` into your docker config file (the default should be `~/.config/`)

2. Edit `system.xml` via your preferred text editor

3. Look for the line: `<EnableRemoteAccess>false</EnableRemoteAccess>`. Replace `false` with `true`.

4. Restart the Emby Docker container

5. Test
