[gentoo-user] [OT] test lab Quicktime streaming server
Hi folks, does someone know of a piece of software that runs under linux and swallows a stream from a Quicktime Streaming Server but just throws the data away (no decoding, no displaying)? This is for torturing the server hardware to determine how many individual, concurrent streams it can maintain. A bit of random ff, fb and pausing would be nice but not necessary.

You may be able to use socat and a bit of shell to do what you want: http_request=#Whatever you need to request your stream socat_remote_address=#Something like TCP:your_server:80 stress_level=10 i=0 while [ $i -lt $stress_level ]; do socat $socat_remote_address ENDREQUEST /dev/null $http_request ENDREQUEST done -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
