Hi!
I wrote a wowza module called **Wowza Wrench** that gives you the ability to authenticate your users in wowza using tokens (one time passwords) and perform additional authorization if you like. I wrote a tutorial on how to set all this up and I am sharing this here now to help people looking for such a module find this on my site.
The tutorial is here: [http://wowzatoolbox.com/user-authentication](http://wowzatoolbox.com/user-authentication)
Any feedback is welcome.

Very cool! Thanks for the contribution to the community. There is a [Showcase forum](http://community.wowza.com/c/-/10) for this type of thing, you may want to post this there for more exposure.

Thanks, I reposted it there. I also added two new features, [pay-per-minute and pay-per-view](http://wowzatoolbox.com/pay-per-minute).
