Thanks to all that answer but the problem is probably subtle. Contrary to
popular belief, a lot still works on a meeting hosted by a Vista Netmeeting.
To summarize the various questions:
1. The netmeeting that I am attempting to call does accept calls as some
people are already in sessions
2. I can host a netmeeting under Vista for application sharing works like a
charm (I have no use for desktop sharing). Some connected "clients" are
either running XP or VISTA
I suspect my calling out problem maybe Vista FW related but I did check and
Netmeeting is enabled so I am stumped.
Anybody knows if Netmeeting hides some logfile somewhere?
Thanks to all
