WEBCAM ON A NETWORK

[Andy G]

Hi all.

I have 3 pc's running with xp on a network. I'd like to
set a webcam up in the window to watch over our parked
cars (been a few stolen)!

How can i set up the webcam (via a usb connection) into
one of the computer, and it allows the other 2 to see the
cam too? IDEALLY to have a small windown open all the time
on desktop

Many Thanks

..... erm, it's a similar type of setup whether you're on a LAN or public
web site. There's plenty of links there that show you how to do it
otherwise the documentation for your product should tell you. ;-)

Look at Microsoft Portrait. Its FREE and works direct IP to IP over wired Ethernet or wireless
802.11b networks. There is even a PocketPC version...
