Ignore device from client and save config at server?

Submitted by billypon on #1

<p>I'm testing NAS Server version, my NAS is QNAP, and the version is 3.4.7.
</p>
<p>When I ignore a device(example: xxxx/yyyy) from client, I found that the config.ini at server has the config "IgnoredDevices=xxxx/yyyy".
</p>
<p>Every client can ignore devices and save the config to server? Amazing....</p>

That the way it's meant to work. If that's not what you want, then use the onDeviceIgnore callback , https://www.virtualhere.com/quirks

I found that "Reverse Clients" has the same problem, how can I resolve it?
I mean I can do this on client: Right Click -> Reverse Clients -> Add -> www.google.com
Then the config.ini on server has this: ReverseClients=www.google.com:7573

There is no way to only allow specific clients to add/remove reverse clients, but what you can do is to use the HideMenuItems setting *at the client side* to hide that feature. See here https://www.virtualhere.com/client_configuration_faq -> "Can i customize the client menu?"

I think this is not a good idea. Because I can delete the client configuration file(vhui.ini)

Is there any other way (like onReverseClient callback at server) in the future?

Ok this is added in 3.5.2 of the server see here https://www.virtualhere.com/quirks "onAddReverseClient" and "onRemoveReverseClient" . Create a script and return 0 from those
