I am looking for an existing preferably open source project built for home survailance systems using four IP PoE cams. Nothing too fancy; just want to record to my own hard drive and be able to view live by connecting directly to my linux system securely.

BUT under no circumstances do I want any of MY data going to anyone elses computer or server.

I was originally plannig on making a program myself, just want to see if there is something out there someone has already made. I have looked at bluecherry and ispy. not a fan.
