The software used is called "Camstream" and it enabled me to login remotely to my house and find out "LIVE" which one of my cats was actully the culprit in climbing up on my desk (giggle) It was realtime, worked great but needed the newer XFree-4.x and newer gt libs.=20 http://freshmeat.net/screenshots/1030/ If some capable coder would port this to FreeBSD I'd be one the people who would have BOUGHT the software to make this work with FreeBSD, or any other Unix OS even the Solaris (Sparc) box I'm typing this email from at home!!!. I'm all for opensource but I'm also for having stuff work too. :) __ Bill Schoolcraft =20 PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ "UNIX, A Way Of Life." _\_v http://forwardslashunix.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
