Hm, how is this more secure than what Meep is doing? I mean... TLS and everything but this still requires you to open up your server machine to the internet and as security issues are this should at least involve staying up to date with known security issues in e.g. your TLS client on a daily basis because, you know, these big security issues that made the news in recent years were all about issues in security software like OpenSSL...
So if such an issue shows up again (or it's not yet fixed on your NAS) you can fall victim to port scan attacks with such a setup. Not too likely but possible, some such bugs have been around (and used!) for years. I think the only thing being more secure is a solution where LMS only does outbound communication, that is: a plugin that connects to Alexa (or some intermediate service) and polls. --- learn more about iPeng, the iPhone and iPad remote for the Squeezebox and Logitech UE Smart Radio as well as iPeng Party, the free Party-App, at penguinlovesmusic.com *New: iPeng 9, the Universal App for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch* ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107009 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
