Source Tab I use for an AXIS 2100

Remote Host Name user:password@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Remote Host Port (the port the Webinterface on the camera is set to)
Remote Host Path /axis-cgi/jpg/image.cgi?resolution=640x480
Remote Image Colours 24 bit colour
Capture Width (pixels) 640 (has to match the settings of resolution on the camera path)
Capture Height (pixels) 480
Orientation Normal

I use the jpg/image.cgi path because i was getting substantial time offsets / picture delays in ZM with the video.cgi path. ZM was delievering the pictures with up to an 5 min delay.

start out with a smaller Res (320x240) again this has to match the settings in the path

If it works with 320x240 and not with 640x480, look at your /var/log/messages to see if you get an error like
zm [ can' shmgt value ...... ] which might suggest your shared memory value is to low

When you connect directly to the camera via your web browser without Zoneminder what login do you use?

Use this login for Zoneminder.

When you use Zoneminder what do your logs say when you try to connect ?
/var/log/messages
zmdc.log

Which AXIS camera model are you using ?
