I can't connect to zm console from another PC

Post by marsimus »

Hello,
I install zoneminder on centos 6.5 and i can connect to zm console only from local PC.
How to connect from another PC on local network?
when I write the address "10.20.172.136/zm" in the browser, I get the message:
This page can’t be displayed

•Make sure the web address "ipadress" is correct.
•Look for the page with your search engine.
•Refresh the page in a few minutes.

Check your iptables firewall or just turn it off:

Code: Select all

sudo service iptables stop

This ip does not seems a local ip address. Could you check that your local ip address is the one you're trying to access?

After more than 15 years, no longer using ZM as surveillance system.
Now in the dark side, using a commercial system...

That IP should be local to his network. Anything on the 10.x.x.x network should be a local address since it isn't routable to or from the outside world. (RFC 1918)

Iptables stop helped. I can connect from my other PC to a local network. Thank you.
But still does not work HIKVISION network camera DS-2CD855F-E.

Google is your friend.

Read through the various hits. Try all the settings you come across, even if your exact camera model is not mentioned.
