Get_iplayer is streaming live TV!

Mystery solved.

Someone somewhere has set up a site which accesses my get_iplayer cgi script and kicks off downloading from live TV.

NICE.

Now, does anyone know how to password protect the CGI script ?     I don't think I can do this with normal .htacess

Thanks

David

Hmm, well I know nothing about running g_ip under Linux, but I guess that if you issue

  /usr/bin/perl /root/get_iplayer_dev/get_iplayer/get_iplayer --help-long

it might give you some clues.  In fact

  /usr/bin/perl /root/get_iplayer_dev/get_iplayer/get_iplayer
--dump-options

will, I think, show you all saved options, which would be a start.  Aha

  /usr/bin/perl /root/get_iplayer_dev/get_iplayer/get_iplayer
--show-options

will (according to quite an old help file I'm looking at here) list the options AND show where they were defined.
