Internet Explorer Plug-in Files - Where are they? for network camera...

[burgemaster]

Hi,

 

We have various network cameras around the school. Staff cannot install IE plug-ins, so if any department wants to view a camera in "thier" room i have to manually install the plugin as below:

I have tried and failed to use group policy to allow the installation of this plugin, so thought if I can find the files etc i can create a simple msi to roll out.

 

Ive had a search for bl_camera.cab but cannot find it anywhere? Does anyone know where and how these are installed?

 

Many thanks

Did you check: C:\WINDOWS\Downloaded Program Files

Thanks !!

Well there are 2 files in there, and simply having them present on another machine isnt good enough. Guess it needs installing

 

There is no "bl_camera.cab", only 2 files, bl_camera.ocx and bl_camera.inf

 

Does anyone please know a way I can install this camera plugin?

 

; INF file for BL_CAMERA.OCX

[version]

signature="$CHICAGO$"

AdvancedINF=2.0

 

[Add.Code]

BL_CAMERA.ocx=BL_CAMERA.ocx

 

[bL_CAMERA.ocx]

file-win32-x86=thiscab

clsid={87BE3784-6977-4E84-AA08-55A96B9CEAC5}

FileVersion=1,2,0,84

DestDir=

RegisterServer=yes

 

;[hook1]

;run=regsvr32.exe /s Kxhcm10.ocx

 

;end of INF file

How about right mouse click on .inf and choose install?

"This cannot be installed in this manor"... or simular error

 

It must be making registry changes as well as copying files.

 

I will go back to the drawing board and try and get the plugin "Approved" in AD

 

This is the group policy that I am applying to the computers:

I have installed the plugin on my computer and checked that the CLASS ID is correct:

 

Name: Bl_camera Control

Publisher: Panasonic Communications Co.,Ltd.

Type: ActiveX Control

Class ID: {87BE3784-6977-4E84-AA08-55A96B9CEAC5}

File: BL_CAMERA.ocx

Folder: C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files

 

With this group policy applied they still cannot install the plugin?

Does anyone have any ideas please?
