Hello,
I've attached a second patch. This patch changes VDR's svdrp port handling in the following way: If only the localhost item is found in svdrphosts.conf, then the port is attached to "INADDR_LOOPBACK", which makes it impossible to reach the port from outside. As soon as even one additional item is added, the port is opened to "INADDR_ANY", again, so the port is accessible from network. This way, the default configuration of VDR is "rock solid" and there should be no need to disable svdrp at all. We also have no additional configuration mechanisms. The user only has to work with svdrphosts.conf, as he did with previous VDR versions.
