when I type sudo service mediatomb restart, mediatomb starts on a different IP address/port and can't be seen by devices.

I suspect his is becuase the default port wasn't closed properly.

Does anyone know how to close the port manually so I can run...

mediatomb stop kill port mediatomb start

At the moment I have to reboot the server to clear the port.

Won't let me add as answer yet: In the <server> element of the config.xml I assigned the IP and Port manually <port>49152</port> <ip>192.168.0.16</ip> See the mediatomb docs for more info on the config.xml this now allows me to do... sudo service mediatomb stop sudo service mediatomb start – Slartibartfast Dec 31 '12 at 15:21
