Hello, quick question...is there a way to restrict users from accessing the admin settings? ie: Authenticating with the server with their username and password?

 

Here is my current setup...

 

Emby server with SSL enabled (port 8921 then forwarded to 8096 internal, no issues here), and my ddns name is setup. When a user goes to the DDNS address, they are automatically logged in and can access all the admin settings.

Check the user settings.  You have to explicitly make a user an admin.

Do you have a account that they are accessing that does not have a password (ie the admin account)?

Nice thanks guys. Found it under user settings and made the default admin account hidden from login, and then added a password to it.

If you still want local access without password you can enable the Easy pin option also.

Sounds like you're giving everyone the admin account instead of creating separate users?

No, not my intent. They are all separate users, but they were able to see and login with the default admin account (until I 'hid' it and password protected it).
