[ale] Web server issues

[Robert L. Harris]

Look at your config file.  There is a setting:

# Restrict webcam connections to localhost only (default: on)
webcam_localhost off



Thus spake Jim Seymour (bluejay at speedfactory.net):

> I am running out of ideas as to what the problem is here. I have an
> outdoor webcam sending a feed to a website hosted on another system. The
> webcam server is part of the motion package and is running on a Debian
> testing system. I can watch the feed without problem on my own system
> (the system sending the feed). Anyone else that tries to access it gets
> a denied message. A test of my firewall shows the port as open. I can't
> figure out if the problem is in my hosts.allow or whatever. The iptables
> rules have input and output rules to accept connections on the port and
> my logs do not show it being dropped. Googling has not provided me with
> the answer. Ideas? The address if you want try is www.wingbarscafe.com
> and is using the cambozola java applet to direct the feed.

DISCLAIMER:
      These are MY OPINIONS             "We can't solve problems by using
       ALONE.  I speak for                the same kind of thinking we used
       no-one else.                         when we created them."
