Re: Netmeeting 3.02 problem while calling out (but able to host meetin

I'm surprised you got the hosting working at all Vista-to-Vista actually
since officially that's not supposed to work

cf

A hotfix is available to install NetMeeting 3.02 on computers that are
running Windows Vista
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927853

Quote from page ....
"NetMeeting 3.02 does not support remote desktop sharing. Therefore, the
Remote Desktop Sharing option is not available on the Tools menu in
NetMeeting 3.02.

Therefore, you cannot create a remote desktop sharing session from an
earlier version of NetMeeting to an instance of NetMeeting 3.02 that is
running on a Windows Vista-based computer. However, you can create a remote
desktop sharing session from NetMeeting 3.02 on a Windows Vista-based
computer to an earlier version of Windows that is running an earlier version
of NetMeeting"



Which is the way I use it - Vista to XP - which is sufficient for my needs.
To enable that you usually just right-click on the systray icon and choose
'Enable desktop sharing' (or something similar)
