[wlug] ipv6 webcam

26 Feb 2013

      I've got a machine running apache2/php5/mysql and motion at
pi.fairfield.org.nz (ipv6 only outside our lan)

In theory it should work, but it seems motion is ipv6 only.

is there some way eg php script that I can have apache connect to
localhost:8081 and just forward the raw data through to the browser? I
set up two scripts webcam.php and webcam2.php that are supposed to do
this, but neither seem to work (as far as I can test them; I won't
have ipv6 at home until tomorrow).

webcam.php is this;
<?php

$socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, SOL_TCP);
socket_connect($socket, '127.0.0.1', 8081);

$reply = "";
do {
     $recv = "";
     $recv = socket_read($socket, '1400');
     if($recv != "") {
         $reply .= $recv;
     }
} while($recv != "");

echo($reply);
?>

webcam2.php is this;
<?php
	system(nc 127.0.0.1 8081);
?>
