Dlna and usb harddrives are visible on everyone?

[villex]

when dlna media server is on, all usb external harddrives (for example for backups) are shown for everyone in the same local network.

when there is a share which is only visible for user X on dl2100, they are suddenly visible for everyone in the current network when the share is backuped to the external usb drive.

how come? that shouldnt be like that.

1. please, add the possibility to turn off dlna access to usb drives and only for certain users.

2. dl2100 keeps usb harddrives on all the time and prevents them to go sleeping.

Turn off media sharing for each network share. Set a admin password on Twonky which will prevent the core WD firmware from messing with Twonky’s settings and then within Twonky define exactly what directories you wish to be shared to media players.

TIP: Fine control of what media Twonky crawls

Found a useful quirk with the present MyCoud firmware. At the moment you can either have an entire share crawled for media or not. You can have fine control over what directories are examines for media. Turn on Twonly. Turn off the media shareing option on all the shares. Set a password on Twonky by going to: http://WdMyCloudDL4100:9000/ (Substitute the name for the name of your NAS) Set a password on Twonky. This prevents the Web UI from changing Twonky’s settings. Use Twonky’s own settings…
