Summary
This article explains how to copy LuxRiot WebClient distributables onto intranet web server so that LAN workstations could have LuxRiot WebClient installed without accessing external network.
Instructions

- Copy HTML page files to the chosen location on the web server.
Content of HTML files is basic and does not have artwork embedded. Note that Internet Explorer with JavaScript feature turned on (default settings) is required to use the LuxRiot WebClient.Once completed, http://myintranet/luxriotwebclient/Default.html location should lead to a login form and after its submission, there should be a page that installs all required components from your intranet server’s .cab files and provide LuxRiot WebClient interface.
In case LuxRiot WebClient does not work after the mentioned steps completed, the first thing to check is firewall settings and client side Internet Explorer settings, if they allow installation of signed ActiveX controls.

A word about various DirectShow that may work or may not with LuxRiot. Some time ago I prepared a test webpage to be opened with Internet Explorer (only!)

This will install a small ActiveX control (user will probably have to confirm installation) and there will be a report generated about existing DirectShow devices similar to shown on this image:

We will need this information to check compatibility of those DirectShow devices with LuxRiot.
