once logged in goto settings and then one of the tabs is for users. Add in user 1 your zm login details. Logout of zm4ms then backin with the new auth details
For testing you can add a user admin:admin to your zm box if you like

first of all i added a new user in zm box, and changed admin pass to admin
i added a normal user to viewer, with the same login/pass

no matter if i login as admin or as a user, i get these red x's

r2d2 let me see what we can do then.
I assume you have a fully working zm install
and that you get red flashing 'x's
HAve you used the relevant login details
Are you using the live cd or ctu or something else
Your using port 80 for images

Pictures say more then words..........

Here are my settings:

And here the result:

you need to modify the username in users, the user name you have editied is the mysql access password not the zm password.

Here is my sql setup:.........

Code: Select all

mysql mysql < db/zm_create.sql 

mysql mysql 

mysql> grant select,insert,update,delete on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass'; 

mysql> quit 

mysqladmin reload

........but where can i create/edit users?

r2 stop lol, the live view is nothing to do with mysql, you only need that for playback purposes.
You need to have the same login infomation in zm4ms in the user tab in settngs as you use to login to the web interface.
ZM4ms passes the login infomation you enter when it requestes images from zm. If the login details are incorrect you wont get any images. If the login details are correct then its a path problem. the default path is only for mandrake based live cd installs and may not suit your install

i dont need any login or password in the webinterface

Hi R2D2

1. Make sure that the user name and password you use to log into zm4ms are a user that is configured in you ZM configuration, if this is not the case then that is your frst problem.

2. When that is done you can play around with the events palyback, witch the mysql username and password are used for, an easy way to do this is to use phpMyAdmin to create a new user that have access from everywhere / your computer.
