Icecast Streaming Media Server

[level20peon]

Hey there,

I was just searching the forums for a way to enter something into the access.log file ON user connect (not after disconnecting). I tried to set log level to debug before but it just changes the way of logging to error.log. In the forums I found the possibility to do a "on-connect" call but if I understand this correctly it only is possible to do for mount-connect-events, not user-connect-events.

Is it by chance possible to either drop a line into the access.log or call an external script on user-connect-events ? If this is not the case, is the mount-connect-event being called on the main-streaming-server side or on the relay-server side ?


Thanks for any input,

you can use auth url to invoke scripts like php on listener connection (see option listener_add). What that script does to actually authenticate the user is completely up to you eg everyone is authenticated, but the php will allow you to run other things like logging to a file
