I just got a Vivotek webam server up and running. Working great
inside my network.
I want to make the stream externally visible to some friends back in
Georgia though and
am trying to punch the right holes in my firewall. When I connect to
the site I get all
the html, etc but the steam (seems to be quicktime) gives an error 404:
Not Found. I'm
not seeing anything missing on my firewall logs. I've forwarded through
this:
# Forward http webcam to cam1
$IPTABLES -A Allow -p tcp --dport 554 -j ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -A Allow -p tcp --dport 7070 -j ACCEPT
$IPTABLES -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 554 -j DNAT --to
192.168.0.230:554
$IPTABLES -A PREROUTING -t nat -p tcp --dport 7070 -j DNAT --to
192.168.0.230:7070
(7070 seems to be standard for the stream as well).
Anyone have any ideas or have done anything similar and get it working?
