Hi,
This is a known issue/problem with the bind_ip_addr setting- you can
only specify one IP address.
Here are a couple of workarounds:
* run bogus DSS processes which bind to the addresses that you DO NOT
want to stream media from. (One DSS proccess per IP address.)
* run the real DSS process that you wish to serve media from, using the
default XML config. It will bind to all addresses that you did not
attach the "bogus" DSS processes to.
* kill off the "bogus" DSS processes. You are left with only one DSS
process running on the desired IP addresses.
Or:
* Write a wrapper script (Perl?) that binds to all interfaces/ports that
you DO NOT want DSS to use. The script then launches DSS, sleeps for a
few seconds, then terminates. The result is that DSS can only bind to
the addresses/ports that your wrapper script did not bind to.
Another option is to download the DSS source code and change the
bind_ip_addr preference into a list than can contain multiple items..
but I'm not sure how much work that would take.
