[RESOLVED] Rule Help - Access to Plex Media Server from LAN

Post by orangish »

Hi!

I'm hoping you may be able to help me - I'm just savvy enough to input an ABE rule, but not enough to understand how to write one.

I need to be able to access http://plexbox:32400/manage from computers on my LAN other than the machine plex is running on. When I browse to that location, I get an ABE error

"Request {GET http://plexbox:32400/web/index.html <<< http://plexbox:32400/manage, chrome://browser/content/browser.xul -6} filtered by ABE: <local> Deny"

Is there a rule I can use to avoid this, but only when the request is being made a machine on the LAN?

Thanks!

Code: Select all

SITE plexbox:32400
ACCEPT from LOCAL
If you have no other rules, then add DENY
If you have a rule that follows containing a DENY, then just the above

This was meant to be as tight as possible while giving you most access locally.
If you don't want to limit by port, just the site, then remove the :32400 otherwise leave it there.

Unless you have some really bizarre LAN setup, that should do it for you.
