How to use rtmpsuck in Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx

1. Go to System -> Administration -> User ang Groups and create a new user. I have used the "rtmp" username for the new user, and didn't let the user to have any additional user privileges. The user will be used to monitor RTMP/RTMPE streams.
2. Download the latest version of rtmpdump.
3. Extract its content.
   I will use the following folder
   

   /home/USER/Downloads/rtmpdump-2.3

4. Open "/home/USER/Downloads/" with Nautilus. And right-click on the "rtmpdump-2.3" folder. Select the Share tab.
   Check "Share this folder", "Allow others to create and delete files in this folder", "Guest access (for people without a user account)".
   Hit the "Close" button.
   Note that sharing this folder is needed if you want to save videos with rtmpsuck. If you only need to get parameters, you can skip this step.
5. Compile rtmpdump, rtmpsuck, rtmpsrv:
   In the Terminal
   

   cd /home/USER/Downloads/rtmpdump-2.3
   make SYS=posix

6. Redirect traffic from TCP port 1935 to the user created in Step 1. In the terminal:
   

   sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 1935 -m owner  \! --uid-owner rtmp  -j REDIRECT

   where rtmp is the user created in Step 1.
7. Then the account created in Step 1 within the terminal
   

   sudo su rtmp

8. And finally launch rtmpsuck
   

   ./rtmpsuck

9. Now visit the site that has the stream or start playing the stream, rtmpsuck will begin saving (ONLY if the folder you are currently in is shared)
