RTMP authentication, RTSP authentication => problem

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

hi,

I’m using wowza for live streaming. Stream comes from FMLE and is delivered by wowza in flash (via webpage) + in rtsp.

I wanted to authenticate the link between FMLE and Wowza with a username/password, so I installed MediaSecurity package. I changed application.xml and add user.pwd in .password file => all works fine

But now, I publish stream in rtsp and I need to get authentication from client => I changed again application.xml to do it but… we need to use same user/pwd already used to authenticate FMLE<=>Wowza ???

Question is : how to put user1/pwd1 for FMLE<=>Wowza and user2/pwd2 for rtsp access ?

Regards

Nicolas

Nicolas,

They use the same password file already /conf/publish.password

Take a look at /conf/Authentication.xml, you can change the file name there.

And this might be useful:

hi Richard,

Indeed, that’s why I asked how to specify to use an other password file

if it’s not possible that’s very strange because both things are not linked

Use per-application password files

Thanks, I succeeded to do what I wanted :slight_smile:

if someone is interested :

  • in authentication.xml I changed value for basic auth to point to an other pwd file

  • created this new file and add user/pwd in it

now i have one user/pwd for the link between FMLE <=> Wowza

and an other for rtsp clients
