Brecon 5 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Hi all, I was messing with my Emby server (Latest Beta Version) on DSM 7.2 because i was having some DLNA issues on one of my Samsung TV's. To cut the story short, I entered my local IP address 192.168.1.1 in the 2 empty boxes where your meant to enter and external IP address. I saved it and restarted emby server. I think at this point I knew i had made a mistake, but too late. The server is running but of course I can't log in any more...and on emby web it just says "Forbidden" Is their anyway I can get back in and delete the 2 added IP address I entered. I am not use to linux and not sure what I can try. Has anyone got any suggestions. I could really kick myself now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37070 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 HI, you'll need to shutdown the server, locate the /config/system.xml file underneath the server data folder, and remove the values you entered. Emby Server Data Folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37070 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 @FrostBytemay have some tips on that. Please note that if you have a windows machine on the network, you may have an easier time doing this from WinSCP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With WinSCP you can just copy the system.xml over to your windows machine, edit it there, then transfer the updated version back over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brecon 5 Posted March 22 Author Share Posted March 22 Do you mean like a cut and paste? Is there a tuturiol for this Luke? Im lost at the editing part. Do i try to copycut the line, edit it and paste it back in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5049 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 WinSCP is a GUI almost like Windows Explorer but allows you to SSH into your NAS from Windows. Most everything you can do in Explorer you can also do in WinSCP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5049 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 You have to be Super user though, just Admin without super user will not give you edit permissions you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
