Very Computer

ppp modem connection on Linux Box,
4 networked Win98 PC's
IP Masquerading
IPv4

I cannot get netmeeting to receive audio and video on the networked Win98
boxes.

tried to compile a module for h323 support but could not get a handle on the
hundreds of error messages i got (think the module is for Redhat???)

my source was the Linux IP Masq link from this site:

http://www.meetingbywire.com/Firewalls.htm

i think i don't know enough about compiling modules! :(  been a long time
since i studied C and not used to Linux environment :(

does anyone know where I can get hold of a suitable compiled module? is that
possible? can I
then just put a reference for it to be loaded in rc.local? as with support i
have for RealMedia and Quake etc...

please let me know if anymore info is required for help in resolving this
issue.

with much thanks

James

Netmeeting is very unsecure due to the fact that several ports need to be
opened up inorder to pass audio and video.  Im using a program call HoneyQ
that works well behide a firewall you might give it a try.  If you do use
the following commands to do your port forwarding:

ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r tcp 2054 2054 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz
ipmasqadm autofw -A -v -r upd 2055 2057 -h www.xxx.yyy.zzz

where www.xxx.yyy.zzz is the address you want to forward to.
