[QUOTE="koala84, post: 387413, member: 85443"] Hi all, fist at all, i'm using MediaPortal since some month, and i'm really glad with it. Great work! It's not a big problem, but there is something i'm concerned about. TvSevice uses some ports ([url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/get-support-90/tv-server-ports-11579/[/url]) to stream or accept commands. These ports must be accessible from the internet. If i configure the firewall to make these ports accessible only from localhost, the MediaPortal client can't connect to TVservice. (MP client is on the same machine) For mysql i must do the same. Is it a problem, if anyone from the internet can connect to tvservice's port 31456? Is it possible, that someone can stop a recording, that is currently running, or something? (Mysql needs a password and it's configured to accept connections only from localhost, even the port 3306 is accessible from the outside. But Tvservice dosn't need any password for port 31456 i guess.) I don't plan to use Tvservice in a LAN. I use VNC to do any remote thing :-) Thanx for your help, Daniel [EDIT] I have only an ADSL modem, not a router, so i'm directly connected to the internet. Does someone have an idea to this?
