    Does it make sense to disable the admin account?

    I assume that the majority of access attempts are aimed at the admin account. Provided there is another user with admin privileges, can the admin account be safely disabled? Does it even make sense? TIA

    Once again I need some BI help. Networking

    Yea, BI is the only computer that has access to 192.168.5.x, the rest just access the web server to see the cams. It's been like this for years. I recently upgraded my BI computer because the old one was struggling to manage 11 cams. The new one is much better. but I still have issues to work...

    Once again I need some BI help. Networking

    True, but it's much simpler to forget about 192.158.5.x and just deal with BI. When I need to I remote into the BI server to access BI itself but the cams I never have to bother with.

    Once again I need some BI help. Networking

    Because I cannot access 192.168.5.x from any other computer unless it has a second NIC, they are all on 192.168.1.x. And then I can only access the cams directly and not through BI. If I connect to the web server via 192.168.1.x then it works like it should. It seems to me that the web server...

    Once again I need some BI help. Networking

    Thanks for replying Tony. I managed somehow to stumble upon the solution. It was in a drop down that listed 192.1.x. I selected it and am now able to access the BI locally. Still have an issue with remote access but I'll work through it. In answer to your question, I'd rather not expose my cams...

    Once again I need some BI help. Networking

    My BI server has 2 network interfaces. The first is 192.168.1.x. this is the interface that's connected to the internet. The second interface is 192.168.5.x. This is the interface that the ip cameras are on and they are not connected to the internet except through BI. I just set this new server...

    The last 20 feet of it's trip are the toughest...

    I bought my 64" Plasma TV form amazon many years ago and at the time their service was stellar. It was delivered in a van by two people who could not have been more careful with it and the box was pristine. Sad to hear that times have changed.

    I have a hidden porch cam and Amazon has never abused a package. In fact they have never so much as dropped one. They're overly gentle in fact. Maybe they know about the cam. :winktongue:

    Can't get Blue Iris to start

    OS is Windows Server 2012 R2, brand new fresh install. Offending file is api-ms-win-core-libraryloader-i1-2-1.dll. Blue Iris won't start because it says this file doesn't exist. There are 4 of these libraryloader in the name listed in the System32 folder, however the file in question is not...

    Blue Iris Tools - Weather Overlay, Watchdog & more!

    You can install Windows 11 manually. i did it on a couple of systems that did not have TPM and they worked just fine but Windows 11 sucks really really bad so I dumped it and went back to 10. You should be able to find the instructions via google. Just search for "Install Windows 11 manually" or...

    Which Blue Iris key is the correct key???????

    Guess I'm SOL until tomorrow at the earliest. I sent BI support an email. Hope they get back to me ASAP. This is a problem that should not even exist or there should be an automated system to get around it. :angry:

    Which Blue Iris key is the correct key???????

    Thanks. So I'm guessing the existing license key would be the one I got when I renewed since it's the newer. I did take a screen shot of the About tab. Gonna try it using the newer key. I'll report back.
