Thanks a lot!
I use the command you offer. There are many issues to be solved. I use mplayer
to play it. I have not installed ffmpeg. Mplayer can't forward seek when
playing it. vlc play only video, not sound.
Besides, mencoder can encode .flv. See its usage page:

No screen savers or BOINC - nothing special. Usual server stuff stock

Hi, how can I redirect HTTPS requests to HTTP?

A simple iptables port redirection

allow client connections, but drop request.
How Can I solve this?
