Question

Interactive Server 4 (creating vhost Linux version)

I have been reading the documentation on Linux installation of Adobe Interactive Server 4, however I am not finding examples of how to create vhost in the Linux version.

I have 3 IP's and need to have 3 different vhost configurations for them and have different logins/passwords to connect to the server for live streaming.

Has anyone setup FMS Interactive Server on Linux and created the vhost configs like this?

Also, how do you create log-ins (username/password) in the Interactive Server 4 for the vhost so it is protected from anyone being able to connect and stream live to the server?

Any help/advice would be great or sample configs.

    My question is from the documentation it states to create vhost in the following directory:

    [sysadmin@vidserv _defaultRoot_]# pwd


    /opt/adobe/fms/conf/_defaultRoot_

    It is a bit confusing because inside this directory there is:

    _defaultVHost_

    If I have 3 domains that need virtual host configuration:

    examples:

    abc.abc.com

    efg.efg.com

    xyz.xyz.com

    Do I create all of these under the directory of:

    /opt/adobe/fms/conf/_defaultRoot_

    OR

    create them in:

    /opt/adobe/fms/conf/_defaultRoot_/_defaultVHost_

    If I have static ip assignments on the virtual hosts as well, how can I place the ip inside of the vhost configuration?

    Is this the only 2 files needed inside of the domain like 'abc.abc.com'

    -rw-r----- 1 fms fms 55318 Jul 28 13:51 Application.xml
    -rw-r----- 1 fms fms 15811 Jul 28 13:51 Vhost.xml

    For each domain how will the user be authenticated ?

    Hi,

    Thanks for using FMS 4.

    Vhosts go under _default_Root_ and sit along with the _default_VHost_ under the conf directory. The _default_Vhost_ is just another Vhost that is given by default. Hence all of your three hostnames can be made into a different VHost.

    _default_Root is the default network interface that the FMS uses. To add more interfaces, you can replicate this default root and make multiple interfaces.

    The configuration should be exactly same for both windows and Linux.

    Hope it helps. Please let us know of more clarifications, if needed. Thank you !

    So if I have 3 different IP addresses would I need an adapter for each?

    Like the following:

    [sysadmin@vid _defaultRoot_]# pwd
    /opt/adobe/fms/conf/_defaultRoot_


    [sysadmin@vid _defaultRoot_]# ls
    Adaptor.xml  abc.abc.com efg.efg.com xyz.xyz.com  _defaultVHost_

    so would I put in an Adaptor.xml inside of each virtual host like:

    abc.abc.com (files inside)

    vhost.xml

    Adaptor.xml

    application.xml
