Just a question, but you mention you don't store passwords on the servers in the USA to access people's camera's. Now if that would be the case, then if everybody would put :

Login : boom
pass : boom

this is not going to be stored in an sql database on your severs ? So if we all login with boom/boom , this is not going to show us everybodies camera's and likely crash the sql database (too much cameras connected) ?

So it's ok to give this a try ? Everybody put's in boom/boom for a day or so, and you can watch the planet on your icam... ?

Correct me if I am wrong

Regards.

Correct me if I am wrong but logically this would work like :

1. icamsource connects to ip x/y usa servers
2. login/pass/camX stored in sql database to updated IP : xxx
3. iphone icam detected, login/pass received, checking sql database, login/pass found -> redirecting to update IP : xxx
4. picture clears.

Actually not such a bad thing, as it could be used for NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH in a street, using same login for multiple ip's...just wondering if icam servers can handle it...

Regards

ps: did anyone try to login with it already ? Please feedback, thx

Well or nobody tried ... or the sql database can only hold 1 login/pass to 1 ip.

Ahwell...

The server doesn't store logins or passwords, but it does store a SHA1 hash that uniquely identifies the account. If everyone used the same login / pass it wouldn't crash anything, but people would only be able to connect to as many users as supported by iCam (12 on iphone, 16 on ipad, etc.)
