RE: Geovision Query



Did you not explore the logout features in Geovision? Here's a screen
shot of what my desktop looks like 99.9% of the time - I just log in if I
need to do any maintenance etc. As mentioned, all the recording and all
network services etc run whether you're logged in or out :)

Cheers,

Paul.
