NAME
rplay.hosts - rplay host authentication database
SYNOPSIS
/usr/local/etc/rplay.hosts
DESCRIPTION
The rplay.hosts file contains a list of hosts and access permissions which rplayd uses to validate incoming connections. Each line is of the form:
hostname[:permission]
where
|
hostname |
is the name of a remote host or a host’s IP address. Wildcards can be used within IP addresses to match multiple hosts. The wildcard character is "*". | ||
|
permission |
is an optional field containing any combination of the following characters: |
r
|
the host can read sounds. | |||
|
w |
the host can write sounds. | ||
|
x |
the host can play, stop, pause, and continue sounds. This is normally called execute permission. | ||
|
m |
the host can monitor the audio stream written by rplayd to the audio device. |
"rx" permissions are used when no permissions are specified.

BUGS
The permissions for an "*" entry apply to all matching hosts. The order of this file does not matter. Specific hosts can have access disabled with entries like:
bad.guy.edu:
however, any matching "*" entries will still apply.
