Netmeeting

[Denver]

Netmeeting is setup w/ remote desktop, but for some reason
the computer will not accept calls. I also installed
winVNC to try and work around but the same thing
happens. I can make calls out from the system, but
incoming ones don't work.

Is the PC running any type of personal firewall software? That would certainly block the required
ports for NetMeeting and VNC and other similar applications...

Are you using a "Router"?

Well, we are behind a pix firewall but i'm trying to
connect from a local system. All the other systems work
fine it's just this one... I've removed and reinstalled
netmeeting as well as update it w/ SP2... I think it has
something to do w/ the local incoming ports...

Just a "stupid" question, you are using standard ports for this? And the
machine is on the same workgroup/domain?
