cordel these arnt needed when streaming from other zm boxes as i have done so before.

I didn't have the ZM_NETCAM_REGEXPS checked, but it doesn't seem to have made any diference.

It's funny, if I watch the lights on my Router, there is traffic between the 2 ZM PCs when I set the Function to Monitor, but nothing when I set to None. So it would appear as though there is something is coming through but nothing gets displayed.

if you cant ping it and you have no security setup your never gonna get an image. id work on getting the pinging sorted first. I have a box here that i can ping but that its, i think i have a faulty network card. Can you view the zm page of this client?

When I reset my Router and removed all the Firewalls, after this I could ping everything. But this was yesterday at 7:20 & still no image. As I mentioned, the Router lights are showing activity but no image.

so you can login to each machine now via the webpage?

Yes, I can login to each PC and access their cameras locally.

ok do me a favour login and view one of the cams
once you have a streaming image move the mouse over to the right of the image and a few icons should appear. Click the one with an i in it.

It should open another window showing path and fps info.

Copy the path and paste it here

This is from the Client PC, logging on via web interface;

http://192.168.1.145/cgi-bin/nph-zms?mo ... 1131292534

ip 192.168.1.145
path /cgi-bin/nph-zms?mode=jpeg&monitor=1&scale=100&maxfps=5&user=user&pass=pass

modify your settings to the above
note you will need to add a streaming user to zm or use an existing login in the user and pass parts of the url

Did as you say, but no joy. So I removed Authentication & use Plain encoding; still no good. Think I might go for a re-install.

shouldnt have to do that. as it looks like its working

If we call these 2 boxes zm server as main server and remote as zm box with cameras on

can you view the cameras on the zm server of the remote box?

and can i have access to the zm server box via internet? ssh and web

Hi James, sent you a PM but it doesn't seem to be moving!!

Can we call it a night on this & get back on it tomorrow evening?

sure see pm

Here are a few other things to check:
Check that you have installed and compiled with netpbm.
Make sure that the image size matchs between the machines.
If you have a B/W camera on the remote, depending on your settings ZM may make them color.
Make sure if you make any changes that you restart ZM each time.
Check all your error logs. You will find that these help in tracking things down.
