No password when streaming externally
I am having problems with the external access user/password.
I am using a raspberry pi 3 (B+) with the raspberry cameramodule V2.
The camera is automatically added and streams when i start the raspberry. I have addad an admin and user password.
The problem I have is that when I put the ip into chrome and along with the port 8081, and thereby use the port forwarding that I have set up, I see the video stream, but nowhere do I need to enter either user name nor password.
Does the camera itself need a password? I tried removing and adding the camera again, and from what I got from some youtube video, I should use Local V4L2 Camera as Camera type, and and mmal service 16.1 as Camera. Is this correct or is there another option here I should use instead? The option I am using now does not let me set either usernam nor password.
In the motioneye interface I am using IP adress 192.168.1.101. In my router I have set a port forward with both port and forward port to 8081 along with the forward IP 192.168.1.101.
In chrome I write the external ip adress followed by :8081
What do I do? What am I missing?
I am using motionEye Version 0.42.1 and OS Version motioEye 20200606
Don't need the password for the stream, just the administration page / conglomerate page.
But what do I do if I want it? I don't want just anybody to be able to get access to the video stream simply by puting my ip and port in...
Another option is to put up an nginx server and port forward through it. It has the advantage of also giving you an HTTPS capability. Here
I am using motionEyeOS. I tried putting port 80 and that works. I get the login page. Thank you.
Just a question though. Now I just put in the IP from externally (no port) and end up att the login. I don't know much about ports and such, but what if I for example wanted access to something else from externally, like another motionEye (poor example, I know...) I'm guessing port 80 is some kind of standard that covers all or something. Would I then need to use two different, more "specific" ports?
Yes. So, if you had 2 internal servers that both us port 80, and you want to be able to see both from outside, you could do a port forward from outside port 18080 to the first one's port 80, and outside port 19080 to the other's port 80.
So if I wanted access them I would put in like 123.456.1.255:18080 and 123.456.1.255:19080, if I understanding correct?
