There are some pretty strict requirements for IOS based on the version of
netmeeting being used, you can check out the req's here:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/iosw/ioft/ionetn/prodlit/1195_pp.htm

If you meet the req's, netmeeting should work.  However, I have had a lot of
problems in the past with netmeeting and similar apps through firewalls
and/or nat, so a solution I have used is to just create a workstation to
workstation tunnel using CIPE.  CIPE is an open source effort to create
software that allows for an encrypted tunnel between any 2 workstations
using only a UDP wrapper and a shared secret key, so it works great even
through firewalls and NAT (the src and dst ports are configurable). In fact,
it's specifically intended to be an app that people can use to create
encrypted tunnels that should work through and nating device or firewall.

It's available for Unix and Windows, it's easy to install and it works great
on Win2k.  I use it myself to "phone home" to video conference with the
missus as I travel quite a bit.  It works great through nating routers like
a linksys or cisco and in fact, I just used it last night to make a cable
modem to cable modem call.  Here's the link to the windows version:

http://cipe-win32.sourceforge.net/

The documentation is a bit sparse, so contact me offline if you choose to go
this route (no pun intended), and I'll do what I can to assist.  This
solution doesn't scale all that well since it requires configuration on each
ws, but for only a couple of hosts, it may be the path of least resistance
to getting netmeeting to work.

HTH,
Kent

Has anyone configured Netmeeting on a Cisco 2600?  I am running 12.1.2T
IP-H323 code.  I have 1 workstation that is running Netmeeting doing
messaging, voice and video conferencing out to the WAN through a NATed
interface.  Video and Teleconfercing do not work pass the router towards the
WAN side.  Everything works internal.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
