Overview

This manual page documents briefly the camserv command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

camserv is a program that takes a video-for-linux video stream, generally from a camera, and streams it out live to requesting clients. Works with Mozilla, Netscape Navigator, and Microsoft Internet Explorer.
