Disable Remote Access?


Guest

Recommended Posts

Hi folks.  Kind of a security person and I only use Emby in my home.  How do I disable all access to Emby outside my house?  I'm hoping to do this inside the software to avoid custom router configuration.  I am technical and can definitely do that but I'd rather have things like that blocked from the source.  Thanks.

Hi yes there's an option for this in the server network settings. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks.

@Luke is there an option to disable remote access only for some users? Or enable it for specific users? Either would work for my use case. IP blocklist wouldn’t work for mobile access, IP’s change all the time. 

Thanks!

Hi, yes there is, in the permissions for each user.

Do you mean "Hide this user from login screens when connected remotely" option? Hide does not equal disable.. I'd like to keep local home user accounts from connecting remotely, limiting this option only to my account. Is there 2FA in plans?

Nope, he means "Allow remote connections to this Emby Server" option.

Awesome, thanks! I didn't notice this checkbox on each user, so I had all remote connections disabled and the option was, naturally, invisible. Now it's perfect!

2FA upvoted.
