Dear all:
i am one of few person who started using owntracks long before I plunge myself into Home Assistant.
As result, my owntracks server has a lot of users which is not relevant to home assistant.
My question is, how to prevent these users from showing up? I tried to delete these users from my known_devices.yaml file, but everytime Home Assistant get rebooted, these users showed up automatically.
Worse, I have notice that if I modified the entry in known_devices.yaml file (turned hide_if_away to “true” and/or track to “false,” AND in some cases, added icon/mac entry) every time I restart HA, another entry of same device with “hide_if_away: false” and “track: true” will be added to the known_devices.yaml file.
I tried to make the known_devices.yaml file read only, but that completely broke the known devices in HA.
I am a bit confused on why HA behave like this.
What am I suppose to do?
Thanks in advance
