maximum users connected

Hello,

I know there is a way to determine how many users can connect or "join"( in a manner of speach) per second, and how to set a maximum number of users in the queue to join, this does not mean though, that the server will reject all or any petitions after a certain number of players are connected or viewing a stream, which is what we need to do. anyone know if its possible to do this and how?

in other words,we need to set a limit on how many users can be watching a stream at any given time, be it by stream or by server, it matters little, we just need to get it set... any ideas? or is this just not possible?

thanks!

kind regards,

    The answer is yes, it's easy to do if you want.  Using AS1 in the application directory, launched by the main.asc, you can write a script that creates a user count for each connection.  I don't remember how I did it off the top of my head, but it wasn't very difficult to find help on google.

    You can use Auth Adaptor plug-in , write a logic in Auth Adaptor which keeps track of count of which is stream is gettign played by how many clients, keep incrementing of new client and decrement for disconnecting clients or clients who have finished playing the stream. In this way you can set maximum number of clients allowed for particular stream.
