I happened to have a smidgen of time on my hands and went back to dialpad's site. http://dialpad.com/support/faq.html#firewall appears to give the necessary info for building your rules to use dialpad behind a firewall or a NAT box. Possibly further discussions about how to get the various VoIP (dialpad, netmeeting, etc.) should move to the IPFW list since they're pretty specifically FW questions. Yes?
