Thanks Simon,
I have static IPs from the ISP. I am running a linux server with a static IP.
How can I tell all users to use my server and make connections?
I don't understand what feature does gnugk and openmcu offer. I thought they
give me the capability of connecting many users. But I might be missing
something.

Andrew
Th easiest way is to download the windows installer for GnuGk v2.2.6 and in
the installer contains the configuration of installing GnuGk behind a NAT box.
You will need to do some port forwarding in the router, the installer will tell
you which ports you need to forward. You should also install a DDNS service on
the machine such as www.dyndns.com or www.noip.com and enter that address in
the installer. This will configure the device to appear to be on the outside of
the NAT so other people can contact you.
Go to www.pacphone.com and download the secureMCU installer and install it on
the same machine as the gatekeeper, when installed register it with the
gatekeeper via the web interface, make sure you set the gatekeeper username,
that is the name for people to contact the MCU.
For local and remote users use the pacphone client. It can be installed
behind NAT boxes without any problems and you register the clients to the DDNS
address you used for your gatekeeper. This will allow all your clients to talk
to eachother.
To host a conference you can go to the web interface of secureMCU and invite
users to a conference or tell everyone to call the username used for the
gatekeeper.
I hope that helps
Simon

Subject: [Openh323gk-users] How do I setup a conference server
Hi, I want to enable several people at different locations to have a voice
conference.
Each of them have their own ISP and behind a router. Their PC address is
something like 192.168.0.XX. But behind different public IP address from their
ISP using NAT.
Is there a way for them to join Netmeeting and have a conference. I notice
that everyone has to be on the same LAN to use netmeeting. I am not sure how
gnugk and openmcu come into play. I tried them a little, but still cannot get
people from other location to join me, even though I can have people on the
same LAN connected.
Is it possible to join multiple people from different locations using
netmeeting? I remember ILS served that purpose, but it is no longer supported
by MS. Is there an alternative on linux?
Also, when people join gnugk, is there a way for others to see the list of
users signed on?
thanks
Andrew
