Why use the web at all if you don't need to transmit the data outside the immediate area? Buy a camera that is compatible with standard TV/VRC inputs. Most of the small "spy" cameras have adapters or are preprogrammed for use with standard video.
If you have a little money buy a video security system at an electronics shop and you get, 4 cameras, Monitor and often a VCR for less than $500 (Sam's club has a 4 camera B&W system for $199 - no VCR).

I've seen it done with a webcam which streams video to anyone who is connected to a computer and has the password to the URL. I know how to set up a password protected page, but I'm wondering how people have dealt with the huge bandwidth problem. My other concern is how to protect the video stream from hackers. Video streams are very easy to hack into, and as a result one can enter a portal and become quite a security concern in the campus network. If anyone has set up a virtual one-way mirror I like to gather as much information as I can about how their system is set up. The alternative, of course is to get my students to tear down a wall and put a real one-way mirror in. But I don't think the college would be too happy about that solution. Thanks if you can help.
