password for stream port

Question

Hi, great project ! I have 2 questions and maybe future features. Is there any option to enable HTTP password for streaming port same as the one for the webcontrol ? Is there any other way instead of router port forwarding to be able to connect from internet to the mystreamip:8081 port ? Thanks.

You can use mod_proxy from apache as is describe in :

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_proxy.html

take a look to Dag's example in :
