Or you might want to try out the Helix Server (from Real Networks) - which is afaik not really "free" either. Have a look at: http://www.helixcommunity.org/ Haven't yet played with it. But I heared the developer-tools they offer allow easy configuration and compilation. The server allows you to do streaming of RealAudio/-Video if needed. I'd appreciate to hear from you about your test-results on streaming-video- servers (private mail) - or maybe others here are interested as well. Good luck, Stefan
