HELP QUICKLY!
I am running yawcam motion detection at home while gone, and now have over 50 false alarms from varying sunlight over 1 day and need to turn yawcam off or disable it. The quickly is because I have to download each email message before I can delete it.

If you can't, go home and read your e-mails.
I understand there's nothing , but wouldn't a remote console (only needs an extra port/server) with even just a readme to explain the settings file and the file.... i may rig one up on my own when i get back.

You can install yourself a remote console if you wish, from which you could remotely perform the commands:
"net stop yawcam" to simply stop yawcam
"net start yawcam" to start it if you need to
you could also modify the yawcam_settings.xml while yawcam is stopped and then start yawcam with the new settings.
But this would only be possible if you had the remote console.
As for your comment, I did read thoroughly, what I meant is, in the mean time, the only thing you can do, is read your e-mails or go home. I understand it was confusing.

Remote Control of YAWCAM
There are two programs we use to access machines remotely.
One is TightVNC and the other is logmein.
TightVNC comes in many forms. By allowing the home machine to be the server you can log into it. If however you are on a LAN with a 192.168.x.x type setup. Then logmein.com ( the free version for non commercial use) is a real winner.
Give them a try to do the remote control.
I would like to read about other good options for this problem.
