I want to try and get what I can from UK sellers. Having bought things from outside of the EU before and then had to pay 20% import tax and the 17.5% VAT on top of that, a £50 card becomes £70 without the crazy shipping prices. And then sometimes the post office charge you a handling fee on top of a ...

ive been looking at this UK seller selling these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=48632&item=5870561336 They claim that they are a Philips chipset, but i am interested because they have a chip for each input so should get good fps. Will i be able to get this going with ZM ...

There is nothing that i have found that we cant do on a linux server that we do on win2k. Yeah, the time its going to take me to set up samba as a domain controller with roaming profiles, setup the mail server, setup all the networking stuff, i could easilly just buy 2k3 server and be done with it ...

yeah the main server will be linux, our windows 2000 server hasnt been too bad but needs rebooting every few days and sometimes plays up, which is great when i get a call at 8am after a heavy night out asking why they cant find their documents. At the moment we just copy the files to another ...

i suppose when i can buy a 250MB sata drive for £75, it makes it quite cheap to have it mirrored. Its all for my fathers business so i only have to pursuade him and it should be ok. we've got Seagate drives all over our site (some nearly 6 years old i think) and have never even had a problem with ...

the main thing i want to avoid is ending up with two mirrored arrays on two seperate servers, just seems a bit of a shame.

Could i have the cctv server save the recordings onto the file server? or will i then be slowing down everything a hell of a lot?

Right so im building a server for our site but i was wondering if its going to be up to the challenge. Our site needs a new server to store important files, and lots of them. The server will also serve DHCP, DNS, VPN once in a while and a mail server handling possibly 200 emails a day, including ...

Yeah i had a look at some number plate recognition systems. James was right when he said you cannot just use the scene camera. The systems have a scene camera so you can acutally see, which is just a normal colour camera. Then the ANPR cameras are usually specialised black and white cameras, they ...

ive found a board that cannects via rs232 (serial) on the pc and is controlled via AT commands so shouldnt be too hard to sort out. Another thing that i am not sure about after talking over the plans with my father, is lighting. We have been looking at some cameras with sony CCD's that have two ...

Havn't set anything up yet or even ordered anything but i just had a few questions. Firstly our setup is likely to be analogue cameras connected to a ...
