Hi vlc supporting group,

I was trying to use VLC to send my input http stream to my http server,
which is another host. I just got the following errors in the console:

[0x7f0764004048] access_output_http access out: Consider passing
--http-host=IP on the command line instead.
[0x7f0764004048] main access out error: socket bind error (Permission
denied)
[0x7f0764004048] main access out error: cannot create socket(s) for HTTP
host
[0x7f0764004048] access_output_http access out error: cannot start HTTP
server
[0x7f0764001248] stream_out_standard stream out error: no suitable sout
access module for `http/ts://192.168.1.2:38082/mystream'
[0x7f0764000e38] main stream output error: stream chain failed for
`std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.1.2:38082/mystream}'
[0x7f0770000d78] main input error: cannot start stream output instance,
aborting

Below is what I did with my input stream:
vlc http://localhost:8081/mystream --sout '#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=
192.168.1.2:8082/mystream}'

I am being tried lot of different ports, and use vlc-wrapper as root
privilege but it seems nothing wants to work. The only case that turns out
to work is to set dst = localhost or dst = 0.0.0.0.  By reading vlc
documents, I think I should be able to output my stream as a network stream
and put my server IP address there. (In my case the server IP is
192.168.1.2 and my local IP is 192.168.1.1)

I will really appreciate any help! Thanks in advance!!
