How Do I Protect a Live NetShow Stream?ID: Q165013
|
The section below discusses how you can protect a live stream.
You can set the Client/Server Access List in the registry to
NO UI. This is documented in the product documentation or the
release notes. You can track the authenticated clients and put
their IP address in the registry to ALLOW access---all others
would be denied.
Keep your own "database" of "authenticated" clients that includes
the clients' IP addresses when they log in. Use the Monitor interface
to see what clients are connected, and if the IP is not an
authenticated IP, disconnect the client using the monitor interface.
Use the Microsoft Membership System, included in Microsoft Commercial
Internet System version 1.0, to provide the authentication and
validation of the resources. However, this may not be a complete
solution.
If you know the client properties source link, you can use it to
get the source feed. You will still need to implement some form
of monitoring using the monitor interface to disconnect clients).
For the total solution, you can implement this in Microsoft Visual
Basic or Microsoft Visual C as a service, application, or in an
ISAPI extension with Microsoft Active Server Pages (ASP) or
other scripting added.
