In an earlier message response from me, I pointed out that I wished
NetMeeting were integrated better with PPTP for security BECAUSE
the current H.323 spec CAN'T work from behind a NAT (network
address translation) firewall. ICS is based on NAT.... hence this
problem is identical to the one I was describing. If NetMeeting used
PPTP (or other VPN technology) for security and strong(er)
authentication, then it would work from behind ICS for users who
would require security anywhy: i.e. COMMERCIAL users.
Please review my original posting.
