Simon,

I am using netmeeting and gnugk. Will it work with netmeeting?
gnugk on a public linux server. netmeeting from users behind NAT. One thing I 
had to to is to port forward 1718-1720.

  No you do not have to be on the same LAN. PacPhone can work behind NAT boxes 
with GnuGk. All the user needs to do is register with the GnuGk on the public 
Internet and the software will do the NAT Traversal for you. You should be able 
to make and receive calls without any problems.

    Simon,

    Do they have to be on the same LAN?
    Here is my gnugk.ini,
    Is there correct?

      GnuGK is a gatekeeper to handle registrations
      secureMCU is a Multi-point Conference Unit. 
      If you are using Linux you can use openMCU which you will need to build 
yourself. Download pwlib openh323 and openMCU from 
http://www.voxgratia.org/downloads.html.

      Your users register with your gatekeeper with a name which they can be 
contacted with. They then can call the MCU and eachother.

        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.

          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

            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
