SSLCipherSuite
This tag specifies the suite of encryption ciphers that Flash Media Server uses to secure
incoming connections.
Description
This tag contains a list of colon-delimited components. A component can be a key exchange
algorithm, authentication method, encryption method, digest type, or one of a selected
number of aliases for common groupings.
<SSLCipherSuite>ALL:!ADH:!LOW:!EXP:!MD5:@STRENGTH</SSLCipherSuite>
SSLPassPhrase
This tag specifies the passphrase to use for encrypting the private key file.
Description
This tag specifies the password to use for decrypting the key file if the key file is encrypted. If
the key file is not encrypted, this tag is left blank.
To prevent plain text passwords appearing in the configuration file, this can be specified by
doing a base64 encoding on the password and setting the
encrypt attribute to "true".
Example
<SSLPassPhrase encrypt="true">dGluY2Fu</SSLPassPhrase>
The encrypted password is equivalent to the plaintext format:
<SSLPassPhrase>tincan</SSLPassPhrase>
or
<SSLPassPhrase encrypt="false" >tincan</SSLPassPhrase>
Even though the tag attribute is named "encrypt", it is not a true encryption. It is a base64
encoding that makes the password less readable.
