[thelegend]

how do i not allow this?

ive quit the application ps3 media server and yet somehow he is still able run it? please help

[vinnywright]

you may have quit the application ,,,,but the server is probably still running , press ctrl+esc and check the prosess monitor for the server ,,,,if found kill it .

OR your roomate knows your password and is SSHing in to your box and doing whatever he wants

he is computer illiterate, and is only running his ps3 on our network, so i doubt the latter. i quit the application on the computer and yet i am still able to see it running on my playstation and stram whatever i want from it, same goes with his playstation, i brought up the processes but i am not able to find what the name for the running server would be, there is nothing running with the words ps3 or media, there is a kuiserver and a ksmserver running, but i dont want to end the wrong process not having much knowledge with this os............................

I think frm googling for it you need to run

sudo stop ps3mediaserver

to stop it .

[vinnywright]

sudo netstat -tunap

Maybe his PS3 has cached some content?

EDIT: if it has, and you want him to not have access to that content, turn the ps3 off properly (not standby mode) and that might clear the cache. If he's likely to notice that you could always use the circuit breakers to cut the power for 30seconds

iirc (i have not use ps3 media server in a while now) you can stop the server service from within the gui program its in the menu somewhere.
you can use the command

/etc/init.d/ps3mediaserver stop

to stop the service and

/etc/init.d/ps3mediaserver start

to start it back up again.

perhaps it's running as that java app ,, do you know what that is ? ,,,,,if not kill it with it's PID# 934 ,,, like "sudo kill 934"
