Hi
Im using rclone http serve, but facing some security issue like people are flooding on my rclone http serve domain and i cant do nothing because i cant use any PHP function to make some restrictions,
My first question is, can we restrict rclone http serve with my server IP where im hosting my website and linking with rclone http server? or any other restriction that nobody can open rclone http domain directly?
My second question is if i fail to secure my rclone http serve i have to move on rclone mount and use PHP function to secure my rclone server, question is there any big performance difference between mount and http serve?
this is only user level authentication not server level, means user have to enter user n pass to access file, is there anyway we can authenticate server level authentication?
I have a server A where my all apps are hosted and a server B where rclone is working, my user join server A and when hit some video server A send that user to sever B where rclone play that video, issue is people are flooding on server B, so im looking for any authentication that user came from sever A only can join server B, i can acchive that easily with mounted rclone but with server http im very limited with html/java files, if this is not possible i asked u above is there any big performance difference between monut and http server?
There's no big performance differences to my knowledge.
Best way is to test as every use case is very unique.
I'm not sure what you mean with Server A and Server B as rclone serve http is a very basic implementation with a limited set of use cases as the goal for rclone is dealing with cloud storage.
You can always try something else like Caddy/NGinx or something else to meet your needs but that's well beyond the scope of the rclone forums.
Nick is saying you run rclone serve or http as an example and put a proxy server in front of it as that can control access much better as it's meant to do that.
Google Caddy or NGinx and look for some examples on how to front end proxy a web service.
