Hello All,

I have a network in my house with several computers all running Xp pro. I just got a web cam and have set it up. (I'm using a copy of webcam XP). I can access the cam on any machine within my internal network. I can also access it over the net if it is connected to my gateway machine. I cant access the cam over the net if it is connected to one of my internal machines. What I want to do is connect a cam to all of my machines in the house and be able to see whats going on, on each of them over the net. (Want to see what the animals and kids are up to while the wife and I are away). I think this can be done but I'm not sure how. I was thinking of using the remote desktop feature in XP, but I was wondering if anybody had a better idea. Thanks for your ideas.

Gunther,
