This should be something pretty fair and simple to do. All I'm asking for is a php form that result returns back a value that icecast can handle.

This message was received from the programmer of the program:

The authentication of source clients within icecast itself is based on user-name/password pairs but auth via url can pass that authentication decision to something external. In the kh tree (and trunk but not 2.3.2) you can specify a stream_auth setting like you can with listener_add. A url is invoked and that script (say php) can determine who can connect or not (it could be based on time, user/pass mount,ip etc). How you actually decide is up to you, some may use a DB or you could just hard-code it into the script. The key thing is that you send back the usual header (icecast-auth-user: 1) to allow the source client to start streaming.


So..

USER/PASSWORD and a method of setting a way where I can select the days and times they have access.

so if DJ-x is suppose to broadcast at 8pm - 10 on Monday and 2pm - 6pm on a Friday I want to be able to do that.

(note: the days and times are the constant variables being changed. Depending on the person schedule.)


Thank you.

P.S. For php program this is a walk in the broadwalk. I don't mind learning a little programing. So, you dont have to go all complex on me just the function that is asked for. I have dreamweaver and I can change the days and times (I want to learn what's going on)
