Subject: Re: script help with ramgen
You could write your own CGI script to run on your web server that does the
same thing that ramgen does...takes a filename parameter, start, end, title,
whatever...and generates the .ram/.rpm file on the fly with the RealServer IP
coded in.
Of course, it's not hard for someone to establish the IP of your
RealServer...you're still sending them the .ram/.rpm data which they can look
at if they know how.
