Ohphone uses H.323 - you find a lot of pointers to it in the web,
talking about ports and stuff. It's a little tricky, but it's possible.
But one thing: It does not work with NAT. H.323 encodes the originating
IP in the protocol itself, so routing H.323 through NAT would require a
NAT implementation aware of that protocol. FreeBSD's isn't. For Linux
there's a module. Only way out with NAT would be using opengate_proxy as
found in the ports as a gatekeeper.
