My engine manager allows everybody do login with just a random username. Sure, only as a user, but still this is something that should not work, am i right?

So how and where can i setup credentials only login.

cheers

Hello,

I would check in Server.xml that you have under Authentication set to “digest” digest

[install-dir]/conf/Server.xml

If it’s set to “none” everyone can login as a user.

Please save and restart your Wowza server for changes to take effect.
