Emby server connects to cloudflare even if remote connections are disabled

[flogl 0]

Hi,

 

when i watch a movie, then sometimes a ffmpeg process starts up and starts many connections to cloudflare servers via ipv6. But i have disabled "Allow remote connections to this Emby Server.". Even if no device is using Emby, i can see many "close wait" sockets to cloudflare. Is there a resource leak?

Checked again: It seems, that this happens when scrapers fetch metadata. After some time the connections time out, and Emby server does not close the connection. So the system sees them in "CLOSE_WAIT" state. At the moment i have 47 CLOSE_WAIT sockets, but i think, it is not a problem, if the connections are reused. I will report, if the number of connections is growing constantly.
