I heard about some inexpensive security cameras which get their power through the same cat5 cable which delivers the data/pictures (which would simplify wiring tremendously). Does anyone know about these? Do they work with Linux, particularly CentOS?

TCP/IP cameras would work with any OS, most just FTP or whatever the pictures to a webserver you provide, or they run their own server and you can wget the pics off them. but I've never seen any IP cameras I'd call really cheap. Panasonic makes a nice line of them, some even have remote pan/zoom via a http interface.
