Help. How to block devices.

Post by eris23 »

Hi. I am hoping someone can help me. I use UMS on the main PC and use it to stream things around the house.
I would like to be in control of what devices have access to UMS. Specifically the Xbox in the teenagers room.
Do I block from UMS, from the Xbox, from the router? Any advice very welcome.
Thanks

From UMS you can filter IP-address,render and you can even allow access from the XBOX to some folders etc.
For info see here:

You need to edit the UMS.conf manually. There is no GUI option for this.
We reject: kings, presidents and voting.
We believe in: rough consensus and running code.
