I have used SSH tunnels before but can I just check that I have the
logic right on the video part of it:-

If I create a SSH tunnel on port 21 between my local PC (windows) and
the Web server (linux) (also port 21). I also forward port 8888 on my
local PC to the webserver.

On my local pc I then stream the video feed across the network on port
8888 therefore sending it to the webserver.

I then need some html script or java applet that would be pointed at
webserver.IP.address:8888 in order to receive the video stream?

That sounds about right. I don't know what streaming technologies you're trying
to use here, but the web server isn't responsible for providing the video
stream. You need a streaming server like Windows Media Services, Helix, Darwin,
etc. It's the user's browser/video player that will be doing the connecting.
