If it is "how do I use the nginx secure-link module?", then the content at http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_secure_link_module.html should be helpful. If it is "how do I use the nginx secure-link module with mp4 streams?", then the first hit on a web search for "site:nginx.org secure link mp4" for me is https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,228161,228183 which seems to show a working example. If it is "how do I create the url in php?", then the shell examples on the first page should give a hint; just implement that in php. > The php snippet that should be left unaltered if possible, since it will be > updated from time to time from the developer. So all modifications have to > made in NginX That makes it sound like the question is "how do I use the nginx secure-link module, when the algorithm to create the link can be anything at all?". And the answer there is "you don't". If you want your own secure-link creation system, you write your own module to match that. If you want to use the nginx secure-link module, you write you external link-creation tool to match it. > location /videos/ { > secure_link $arg_st,$arg_e; > secure_link_md5 secretstring$uri$arg_e; What request do you make for this test?

Start small. What is the first specific thing you want to do? Do you have it working? If not, what do you have, what do you do, what response do you get, what response do you want? Repeat, for each other specific thing that you want to do. Good luck with it, f -- Francis Daly fran...@daoine.org _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
