MinimServer firewall rules

[rubato]

I have a small collection of CDs ripped to FLAC, and access them using MinimServer running on Linux. Today when I tried to browse the server in the WHA, I got a spinning indicator and a message to check that the server was on the right network. I eventually determined that a recent Linux update had enabled the firewall and that this was the problem. Rather than disable the firewall, I went ahead and configured it to work with MinimServer. For my own future reference, and in case this may be useful to anyone else, these are the commands I used:

sudo ufw allow 1900/udp
sudo ufw allow 9790/tcp
sudo ufw allow 9791/tcp

It's working fine now

Which Linux distribution do you use?

A little tip: Try convoproxy in conjunction with Minimserver. In my opinion, it's worth it.
