NetMeeting and Windows XP w/ SP2

[Guest]

Hi Folks:
We use NetMeeting to remotely access workstations for troubleshooting
purposes. After installing SP 2 on an XP machine, NetMeeting cease to work.
I think I have to open a specific port that NetMeeting uses for communication
to work. What port number does NetMeeting uses?

Cannot run NetMeeting after installing SP2

By default, Windows Firewall is turned on in Windows XP SP2 to block using
the Windows NetMeeting. To run the NetMeeting when Windows Firewall is
turned on, you have to configure Windows Firewall to add conf.exe and
mnmsrvc.exe on the Exceptions tab of Windows Firewall.
