Hello good folk,
I've been playing around with subsonic over the Xmas break and really quite like it. Currently I VPN to my network when I want to access things remotely and can also connect to subsonic this way.
How safe is the plugin with regards to online security should I wish to just port forward to my subsonic jail rather than VPN to it? This is useful for quickly accessing on devices I don't always use for example a friends phone, tablet, computer or device.
My media directories are read only to the jail and ssh is disabled so I'm wondering what the likely worst case thing a hacker could do if they compromised my administration account for it? If they trashed the subsonic jail it would be an inconvenience but I would accept that risk over the benefit of open access.
I tend to update my freenas box when it emails me to say updates are available.
I would be interested in people's thoughts on the best approach and are there things I could do to improve security if I did want to open it up?
Thanks, Dave
