| The file 'svdrphosts.conf' can be used to define which hosts are allowed | ||||
| to access the SVDRP port. By default only localhost (127.0.0.1) is granted | ||||
| access. If you want to give other hosts access to your SVDRP port you need to | ||||
| add their IP numbers to 'svdrphosts.conf'. | ||||
|  | ||||
| You can disable SVDRP access entirely by either running VDR with '--port=0', | ||||
| or by removing all entries (including 127.0.0.1 for the localhost) from | ||||
| 'svdrphosts.conf'. | ||||
