I would like to know if it's possible to secure a server used only for streaming.
Here is what I have on my server :
- Gentoo,
- FlashMedia Server,
- and the following services are enabled : ftp, ssh, named and web ssl
Is it possible for instance to install Mod_security?

I am planning to purchase a streaming server for ~ 200$ - 500$/ month. And I would like to hear your past experience or expertise. I am sure this will help lot of people here that are looking to buy streaming servers.
For my specific need,
Streams are usually 450Kbps and they run for 12 hours straight per day and 30 days. And I run at least 50 slots at a time.
[450Kbps*50*3600*12*30]= ~30TB (Worst case scenario)
I think need 100Mbps shared (I hope to run at least 50Mbps when there is a streaming event).Thank you for all the help.
I'd like to be able to stream mp3s. I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with myspace or not, but thats what I want them for.

I have been fascinated by the Red5 streaming server and tried to configure it on my VPS , i could follow the instructions and get upto the demo page eventhogh most of the demo pages are not working , I believe this is a problem with the configuration and the location where the files should be uploaded after installation or the rtmp URL which should be used on the demo page for the demos to work, I have experinced the issue mainly with the oflademo.
I was quite dissappointed to see that there are not much docs available for post installation configuration of Red5 too for a normal person
I urge the members to develop this thread into a good tutorila on Installation and Configuration of Red5

And what kind of boxes to run it from?
I need to build a video server that supports remote inbound live streams (multiple sources) and multiple outbound streams. I'm interested in hearing feedback or suggestions on Real Media Server, Microsoft Media Server, or other alternatives. Please share your thoughts on any of these. I would prefer Linux hosting and would prefer Windows Media formats. I would love to hear what some of you have had successes with.

The installation went fine. The darwinadminserver started automatically.
But when I go to the Webadmin page on port 1220 from the browser, or when I try to stream the sample videos from quicktime, the server just hangs, won't connect.
I checked the error logs and they read:

I rebooted the server without darwin to see what processes were using those ports but I couldn't see any processes.
Can some please suggest best and cheap dedicated server for live video streaming for 300-400 users.

We run into DMCA problems (Windows Media Streaming) 3-4 times a year and most of these requests come for content that are not even governed by US laws.We currently have Ecatel and they have been good with DMCA but their quality has been a major drawback (Stream buffering big time, even for a dedicated server)

What of servers are used by hosts offering packages with this type of support?
I've read that streaming can be made via web server and streaming media server. The first type has only one advantage and this is that it allows to utilize existing infrastructure, while the second type offers more effective network throughput and (what's more important for me as an end-user) allows for better video and audio quality and support of the advanced features.
Now looking at the hosting plans how do I tell which type of server is used by the host?
I'm interested in this particular plan

We dont usually post on here just use it for information.

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy server hacked!
my server hacked for tow time in less than one month (both times they were similar to each other), and my previous securing company work on my server in previous hack but the server hack again!
anybody can work on my server? this is very URGENT because my server and all of our sites are down!
so while we all obsess over hardening our servers against sophisticated hacking attempts, how many of us consider the security of our own host's control panel?
Just today i'd forgotten my login for my host's helpdesk. I couldn't find their password recovery form, so i opened their public support chat and asked support for a link to their password recovery form. Apparently they didn't have a password recovery form. Here is the chat transcript:
Support: Hello
Tom: Hi, where is your password recovery form for the helpdesk?
Support: How may i help you?
Tom: Did you see my message?
Support: Yes
Support: Let me know your email address
Tom: [REMOVED]
Support: Okay Let me check
Support: Your new password is [REMOVED]
So, the only think really stopping someone from logging into my helpdesk and posting a server cancellation ticket is a little bit of research to find my email address and a traceroute to find my host.
I see that one of the most important things nowadays is the security of our servers.
I would like to know from people here that are running big and small servers what they have done to secure their servers. What tips, what softwares they have used, which applications using and are more secure than others.. generally everything that could make good in the protection and security of our servers.
Even if you asked helped from a company doing that work, what changes they have done to your servers? which options they changed?
I am making this thread so as to collect all info we know in one place.. One knows about that tip.. the other one knows another tip.. having all of them somewhere could make a tremendous difference..
Moderators please dont move that thread in any software discussion or other forum as this is one of the most active ones and also has instant relation with the dedicated servers we buy.
I have a friend that works in the IT. He is about to start his own business, something in the line of network connection or something like that. I was telling him that I'm planning on getting my own dedicated server but that I have no idea how to secure the server. He told me that most linux desitributions come with their own build in firewall and that I don't need to worry about security. He told me to just ask my dedicated server provider to make sure the firewall is enabled and that's it. When he told me that I thought to myself, either this guy has no idea what he's talking about, or those guys at Webhostingtalk have no idea what they are talking about!
