Thanks for your response. The webcam image is seen through my web-browser, so I guess the protocol is http . > But, in any > event, this is normally accomplished by port forwarding.

I'm running shorewall as firewall on this server. I have IP_FORWARDING=On in shorewall.conf . I'm not sure what line to add to "rules", or what address I would give from outside my system to access the webcam.
