hello all,

(i'm double posting from the french forum since the latter's not been very active lately. I'll translate the answers if any in the french forum so that everybody can share.)
I have questions about securing as much as possible the icecast server on a server which will not run a web server.
In particular, I'd like to know if it is possible to filter IP:
- for the sources;
- for access to the admin interface;

Thanks in advance.

you can deny/accept certain IPs at the point of new connection, but not for limiting particular requests. The only mechanism post connect that could filter on IP is url auth and that only applies to listeners, the stream auth url I have could be used to filter source clients.

thanks for the info. Very Happy
I'll pick then a very strong password for the admin.
And use stream auth url .
