I have a server setup with Quicktime Streaming Server. I have installed Quicktime Broadcaster/Quicktime Player on my MacBook.

My problem is that I am only able to broadcast as the root user. Also I can only receive a broadcast via Quicktime Player 7.6 as the root user.

So my question is why? Is there some permission issue that I am missing. Is the firewall blocking the rtsp protocol? I am completely stuck and befuddled, any help would be great.

Thanks
 
HAHAHA….I got it. We use wgm to set proxies for our laptops and I didn’t have it bypass *.local and 169.254/16 and to use Passive FTP mode. After I did that it worked.

Thank goodness!
