oscam.conf as client

[runmo]

Hello oscam experts,

This is a example of oscam.conf I've downloaded. Is this good/enough as config for client (with c-line) or can it be improved? I'm using vu+ duo with blackhole image.

[global]
nice = -1
logfile = /dev/null
clienttimeout = 5000
fallbacktimeout = 2500
clientmaxidle = 120
cachedelay = 120
bindwait = 120
resolvedelay = 30
serialreadertimeout = 1500
maxlogsize = 10
waitforcards = 1
preferlocalcards = 1
saveinithistory = 1
keepalive = 1

[dvbapi]
enabled = 1
user = linuxsatsupport
boxtype = dreambox
au = 1

[cccam]
port = 12000
version = 2.2.1
build = 3165
reshare = 1

[webif]
httpport = 16002
httpuser = admin
httppwd = admin
httptpl = /etc/tuxbox/config/tpl
httprefresh = 30
httpshowpicons = 1
httpallowed = 192.168.0.0-255.255.255.255

[monitor]
appendchaninfo = 1

Thank you for the feedback

You could improve it, if you are just using OSCam as a client you can remove all of the code under the [cccam] header and the header itself.

Do you want to use load balancing? If so I'd add some code under [global] to sort that. It would depend how you want to use load balancing to determine the code though.

I'd change the webif password by altering the 'httppwd = admin' from admin to something else.

I'd also add decodeforever = 1 to the [dvbapi] section if you are using svn7653 to svn8683. After version 8683 this isn't require as the code became obsolete.

Also dependant on which packages you attempt to open using it as client i would certainly get a build from SVN9036 or higher

Re: oscam.conf as client

do you mean deleting this from the oscam.conf?
[cccam]
port = 12000
version = 2.2.1
build = 3165
reshare = 1

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean with load balancing, what code should be mentioned under global to sort it?
The pasword admin mentioned is the one that was in the config, I didn't change anything.
The purpose is to have a as stable possible oscam to use as client with cccam line, like avoiding as much as possible disconnections.

Yes you can remove all of that if you are only using OSCam to connect yourself as a client and not resharing anything.

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean with load balancing, what code should be mentioned under global to sort it?

Load balancing is useful if you use more than one c-line/n-line/local card. For now I'd add lb_mode = 0 to the [global] section. This will tell OSCam not to use load balancing for now. Then have a read of this and decide if load balancing will be useful to you:

The pasword admin mentioned is the one that was in the config, I didn't change anything.

Yes, that is the default password, I'd definitely change it to something else.

Re: oscam.conf as client

Well maybe maybe balance command is needed as I have more than one line in oscam.server, thank you for telling me what command should be added to global section in stead of lb_mode = 0
After reading some info from your link, I've added this to global and created under usr local and stat maps with dcc
lb_mode = 1
lb_save = 100
lb_savepath = /usr/local/stat

Hope this is correct, sorry for my low technical knowledge

Oh when you change the htppwd, and eventualy the htpuser, must it be the same as the user and pwd under oscam.user :

[account]
user = ***x
pwd = ***xx
group = 1
au = 1

or are those 2 different things?

@digicon : using version 9345 and 8784 omnikey

They are different. Account user is user(local or remote user) who is connecting to oscam( like dvbapi user), htpuser and htppwd are username and password for connect to oscam from web explorer ( open in explorer 192.x.x.x:1500 , where 192.x.x.x is IP adress of receiver , and 1500 is port number(httpport) . This is very usefull option, you can change a lot of options from web interface of oscam.)

Yes that's probably the best loadbalancer mode to use if you want load balancing enabled. The rest of your code looks fine too.

By the way, if you use lb_mode = 0 all of the cards available through your lines are polled and the first ECM received back is used.

Further info on OSCam code for the numerous features it has can be found in multiple languages here:

OSCam is so much more customisable compared to other cams. It is certainly worth persevering with and learning it's code and modes.

oscam conf as client

In Windows, does MQ Client only installation create a service? I remember seeing a service in one of my old servers, but when I just installed MQ Client v8 on windows, I dont see a service and id USER_MQADMIN on the server. Thanks for your help.
