With default BBB installation, anyone can share playback recording of your classes on Facebook or WhatsApp for everyone to view.

To secure your recordings, you can make it accessible only from a certain domain. For example, allow recordings to be accessed from theh domain of your Moodle site.

For BBB version greater that 2.3 or 2.4:

`bash #edit /etc/bigbluebutton/nginx/playback.nginx

location /playback/presentation/2.3 { root /var/bigbluebutton; try_files $uri /playback/presentation/2.3/index.html;

# Restrict access valid_referers server_names bbb.youdomain.com; if ($invalid_referer) { return 404; } # End - Restrict access

}

For BBB 2.2:

`bash

`edit /etc/bigbluebutton/nginx/presentation.nginx`

location /playback/presentation { root /var/bigbluebutton; index index.html index.htm;

# Restrict access valid_referers server_names bbb.youdomain.com; if ($invalid_referer) { return 404; } # End - Restrict access }

#### 1. BigBlueButton logging`

`BigBlueButton logs location: /var/log/bigbluebutton/bbb-web.log. To limit this log, set`


(1) change appLogLevel from DEBUG to ERROR

vi /usr/share/bbb-web/WEB-INF/classes/bigbluebutton.properties
(2) change each logger level to ERROR (default INFO and DEBUG)

vi /usr/share/bbb-web/WEB-INF/classes/logback.xml
To avoid logging ip-addresses in bbb-webrtc-sfu change log > level to error (default verbose)

vi /usr/local/bigbluebutton/bbb-webrtc-sfu/config/default.yml
To change logs level for chat usage and chat messages, change loglevel to ERROR

vi /etc/bbb-transcode-akka/application.conf (default INFO)
vi /etc/bbb-transcode-akka/logback.xml (default INFO, DEBUG, WARN]
vi /etc/bbb-apps-akka/application.conf (default DEBUG)

ln -s /dev/null $GREENLIGHTDIR/log/production.log


#### 7. Scalelite
The Scalelite API container is logging user activities. For example: Who joined which meeting.
This logfile will never be deleted automatically and it will get quite large, if scalelite is serving many users.
Hence, delete logs via cronjobs.

`Login as root`


crontab -e
