As we have seen on the last pages, Lighttpd has a lot to offer for setting up a download or streaming server. But we might be puzzled about how they relate to each other, and how we can use them together for optimal benefit. Therefore, here is a huge example configuration that has it all:
# use all modules we need
server.modules = (...,
"mod_rewrite", "mod_trigger_b4_dl", "mod_flv_streaming",
"mod_evasive", "mod_extforward", "mod_secdownload", "mod_alias",
"mod_accesslog", ...)
server.document-root = "/web/public"
# use the rewrite trick
$HTTP["cookie"] =~ "download/([0-9a-f]){32}/([0-9a-f]){8}" {
url.rewrite = ("/download/(.*)$" => "/download/%1/%2/$1")
} else {
# rewrite to avert mod_secdownload
url.rewrite = ("^/download/" => "/freeload/")
}
# configure mod_secdownload
secdownload.secret = "foo bar qux!!!1one!eleven"
secdownload.document-root = server.document-root
secdownload.uri-prefix = "/download/"
secdownload.timeout = 120
# configure mod_dirlisting...
