[Icecast] control the stream

[Tobias Orterer]

hi,

first of all, sorry for my horrible english.
second, i need a method to control the stream for my users.
i want a live stream, one hour per day and just for paying users.
the users they are logged in but not paying for the service
just become the first 5 minutes of the one hour stream.

first i think about to manage it with php, but thats not the
right way i think. because one apache child for every user
is not very good. the same for using mod_proxy.

have anyone of you an idea to solve this problem?


greets,
tobsn
