Is your comment noting "you cannot find out what port NetMeeting is running on" based on: Dynamic H.323 call control TCP Dynamic H.323 streaming Real-Time Transfer Protocol (RTP) over UDP My motive for this question is to further educate myself on this process. For my point-to-point through ipfw/natd application, I found success with the non-H.323 iVisit product, while I'm curious why you recommend icuii (and redirecting ports). I will follow your advice and test icuii w/ redirect-port tonight. Within our home LAN, we have a Win98 and a WinNT box. I suspect there would be a limitation of only using one H.323 or NetMeeting sesion at a time using natd -redirect_port. Furthermore, I'm curious if the NAT-limitation of NetMeeting is related to the H.323 protocol specification or MS NetMeeting's implementation. Thanks for your insight.
