Public bug reported: minidlna is a simple DLNA compliant media streamer. It requires 1900/udp and 8200/tcp (in default configuration) to be open if using a firewall eg ufw or iptables. ufw reads /etc/services
How do I request that minidlna ports are added to the /etc/services file centrally ie upstream - didn't want to just start a bug... I have done this on the local machine by appending to the bottom of that file as implied is ok so I can now: sudo ufw allow minidlna / sudo ufw deny minidlna which would significantly improve the ability to install minidlna with an active ufw as I have spent most of last night tracking down the correct ports to open... (I've now restricted to LAN). Hoping to ease other peoples experience. ** Affects: minidlna (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: configure minidlna services ufw -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897986 Title: add minidlna ports to /etc/services to help ufw To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/minidlna/+bug/1897986/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
