Hi everyone,

I have a weird problem which I think is ISA-related... this is the scenario:

SBS2k + ISA w/2 NICs
WinXP Pro workstations (ISA firewall client + proxy settings)
1 Webcam (built-in webserver) connected directly to the switch inside the
SBS Lan (and a static IP assigned).

I can access the webcam perfectly from my laptop (which isn't part of the
domain nor has the ISA client installed or proxy settings). However, all
other workstations (which are configured to use ISA) can see the webcam but
with many errors: pics don't load, links don't work and more importantly the
ActiveX component is never even loaded to see the picture.

I think it has to do with the ISA proxy since it might be blocking something
and/or doesn't know where to look for the camera. I can pinpoint the problem
because it still connects and some stuff does load (and some load after a
reload, ect.).

Any ideas/suggestions?

so OK, on one of the workstations experiencing the problem, what happens if
you disable the proxy client and remove the proxy entries.

Yes, it works when I take out the proxy settings.

I will try a setting that Susan told me in IE (bypass proxy for local
addresses)... which I think will fix this. However, I think I might still
have problems with another camera that is on a different subnet. I will let
you guys know.

Thanks,

You might be able to just enter the IP of the camera in the other subnet as
an Exception on the Proxy Settings page.

I'm not sure why this makes sense, but I have the same thing with a couple
of web cams here. I don't understand why I can access the web server in an
APC UPS at 10.0.0.9 without any special configuration, but the webcam at
10.0.0.8 needs to be entered as a proxy exception. (This is rhetorical, I
don't really care).

Yep... that was it. I just added the 2nd one to the exclusions list and now
both work flawlessly.

Thanks everyone!
