[Gllug] Linux based Doggie-CAM

GLLUGers,

Finally got together all the components for my Linux based Doggie-cam

* Red Hat Linux 8.0
* USB Logitech WebCam
* NTL Cable modem connection and Public IP address
* Doggie <http://www.simonmorris.uklinux.net/doggie/>

So what I'm trying to achieve is to set up a HTTP site on Apache with the 
WebCam feeding it images every 15 secs or so. This way I can keep an eye 
on doggie from work and see what it is up to.

The Logitech box comes with bundled software to create a web-cam site but 
it is Windows only.

Any software out there to achieve this or should I look at a cron job to 
dump an image from the camera into a file every couple of secs that Apache 
would then serve up
