Security Camera in Server Room Recommendations

physical-security

Does anyone have experience with network cams used for security purposes?

I need to monitor a remote location (server room) from both the local network and the internet preferably. I also need the ability to record-on-event (such as motion detection), run a process on event (such as email me), and capture stills. Additionally I need an interface that will allow 2 or 3 users to view the feed simultaneously.

Are there other features that I havent thought of that would be desirable? THe camera will be placed outside the doors of a small server closet in a building located an hour away. Because I share this closet with staff in the building (who use it for storage), the doors do not lock. On-site staff are unable to police the area, which is located in a building that is open to the public. The closet contains a rack, some switches, router, DHCP server, and misc cables and spare hardware.

I've had good luck with the Cisco WVC210.
