webcasting

[Jason Riker]

Chaim,

If I'm understanding correctly, that's the kind of info he/she is looking
for.  The person admitted up front to not knowing where to start.  Another
option, depending on the presentation, would be to use something like vnc
and share a desktop session that people can watch.

Davide, when you say live webcasting are you looking to stream a live
person, like in a nightly newscast, or a desktop session, like
powerpoint/impress?

Jason

Hi,

sorry I wasn't specific enough.

I have the server and webserver up for other purposes so that is not what I
was asked to provide.
They want to be able to do live webcasting. They do not require 'presence'
meaning there's no need to login or have any kind of credentials to assist
to the webcast, but the webcast has to be live!
Then it will be recorded (while webcasting) and made available through the
webserver for people that missed the live webcast.

The webcasting will be provided 'on the premises' so it will be an intranet
webcasting and the bandwidth is at least 100Mbps (certain areas are already
upgraded to the 1Gbps links).

Thank you
David

two questions

be a bit more explicit,
are you looking for webserver (apache will do)
streaming (speak to your bandwith provider)

what exactly are you seeking
why not just install joomla or one of the other cms things out there, 
webcasting is just like serving any other file, except it uses more 
bandwith.
