I have no objection to that, it might be clearer. I also don't understand why a 3rd ../ is needed given base is supposed to be /var/empty. But I also don't understand why they don't allow to put an absolute path, which would be way more convenient.On 2023/04/18 08:58, Renaud Allard wrote:Hello, Here is an update to geo/traccar 5.7. There are no imcompatible changes. However default.xml config file has changed and now needs 3 times ../ in the changelog path for some reason.oh, that is a nuisance (and I don't see which commit does it..) Do you mind if I add a readme change as well, to reduce the chance that users might need to edit default.xml?

Each tracker protocol-requires its own open port. So you should really block those ports using pf and -only allow the protocols you actually use. +requires its own open port, which requires a large number of file descriptors +and may conflict with other software.-You can also restrict the open ports by altering the default.xml file and remove-all the protocols you don't use. However, the default.xml file will change on -almost every revision, so if you do that you should do it on a copy of -default.xml and reference that copy in traccar.xml configuration file. Also, you -should ensure that at every upgrade, you track the changes in default.xml as -the file contains important informations about SQL queries. This is definitely -more complex than firewalling the unused ports. +The list of protocols can be seen in ${SYSCONFDIR}/traccar/default.xml, along +with various other settings, but do not edit defalut.xml.
