[Sheflug] RTSP / Real Media Clients / Firewalls/ Proxies

All,

I was wondering how other sites cope with RTSP and real media traffic,
particulary with respect to firewalls.

Our default deny rule on incoming / outgoing traffic unsuprisingly
kills it dead, and tunneling through http doesn't work as the Real Player
client doesn't like having to authenticate against our web proxy.

Has anybody tried the http://www.rtsp.org/2001/proxy/ rtsp proxy kit?  Or
Helix ? or any other proxies ?

Or have a magic incantation for firewall rules.

Thanks

Alan Dawson
