installed

* webcam-server 0.50-2
* lighttpd 1.4.18-1ubuntu1

When i start webcam-server via

$ webcam-server

i can watch static images of the webcam inside a browser via http://localhost:8888

But webcam can do more that that. You can include some JS code into a webpage a get a video stream. When installing the webcam-server package a demo website is installed inside /usr/share/doc/webcam-server/applet. I copy this folder into /var/www, start webcam-server and try to open http://localhost/webcam/webcam.html inside a browser. But all i see is a picture saying "connecting, please wait".

    I just set it up and it is working fine. Did you edit the content of webcam.html at all?

    No. I found another user. He says, the java applet works, wenn webcam-server, webserver + browser run on the same machine. As soon as he opens the site on a different computer (inside the same lan), he get's the "connecting, please wait" message, like I do.
