Re: [slim] Liability issue with putting SqueezeCenter music library to the Internet?

If you want to investigate a really cheap
firewall/vpn/routing/filtering/anti-virus/anti-spam solution, see
IP-Cop.

It's a free, web-administered Linux distro that can run on (sub)
bare-bones hardware with very little memory (read <64MB.)

Two network adapters are recommended (but not required.)

I use the "Allowed IP Addresses" option. If the client is not at an
address (range) in the list, they don't even get a response to a connect
request.

It seems I am wrong, at least the Squeeze Mobile software on the iPhone
seems to have an authentication option, which probably corresponds to
the user authentication of the user interface.

I will try this. The authentication is probably not encrypted but I
think that security risk is more theoretical ...

The iPhone has VPN support, so from the client side that actually might
work. However, neither my Router nor the NAS on which SqueezeCenter runs
has VPN support, so for me it is not an option unless I buy a new piece
of hardware.

Hmmm, but the server for streaming clients would remain open, wouldn't
it?

Rather than opening you SqueezeCenter to the world, you'd better set a
'VPN' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_private_network) up.
Nobody but the VPN key holders would be able to connect to it.

You can enable password protection for the web-UI.

But the offered security level might not be the highest possible
