Have you looked at any of the wireless webcams? I haven't used one
personally. It might be overkill, but my brother got a nice camera
setup from Costco for monitoring his building.

All,
I have been tasked with making a recommendation for a web cam that
will monitor the parking lot at $WORK, for weather purposes, not
surveillance - some folks want to be able to check on snow
accumulation before leaving the house. Thus, I don't need to do
TPZ or
stream video, but do need a picture of the parking lot around once a
minute or so. Don't need sound, either.
They do more than you need, but I really like the Axis IP cameras.
They
have models that do PoE. you can grab an image off them with a
cronjob
and post it to a webpage someplace for coworkers to check.
And they run Linux :)

Heh. Linux is good...
But, they're really expensive. Definitely overkill. If we were doing
surveillance, I'd vote for them in a heartbeat.
