How to assure security for a video streaming using Lighttpd?

问题

I need to stream a video which is present on server say xyz.com. If I access the correct path of the video everyone is able to see that video. What I need to do is that create a MD5sum corresponding to the every particular video which has an unique video id.

So that from now onwards if the user is accessing the video as before ie :

it should not load for the below.

http:/xyz.com/video.mp4

It should load only for the following url

http:/xyz.com/video.mp4?md5=202cb962ac59075b964b07152d234b70

Any suggestions?

I think you would be better using a scripting language such as php for this. However if you are adamant on doing it inside of lighttpd you can do this with mod_magnet using lua.

Lighttpd also offers a module called "SECDownload", it is very easy to install. It enables you to make a url available for a limited time.

Tutorial is here: http://redmine.lighttpd.net/projects/1/wiki/Docs_ModSecDownload

This only creates a temporary link, the url is not limited to a IP. If one url is created, every user may access it (at least if you don't do anything to prevent this).
