hi Axel,
       the firewall is blocking the ports you need open for Voice over 
IP... You will need to determine what port(s) r being used via the apps
in ?n Then request opening of those ports. It really doesn't matter that 
it is *nix fw as that is what a fw does. When it comes to netmeeting no 
sane fw admin on this planet is going to allow you to run it. It is very 
insecure ... solution run netscapes version which doesn't open up to the
world so much. To have then open up for nm is as good as ! having a fw.
Good luck and email me the solution as am interested in what is resolved.
                                                        Regards,
                                                                dreamwvr () dreamwvr com

Hi participants,

I have a big problem. My Provider set a Firewall up one week ago. I ran
different Internet Telephone Software like Vocaltec IP 5, Voxphone and
Netmeeting. After setting up a firewall, I don´t get any connection to ICQ
and the other programmes. Is there any possiblity to use Voice-over-IP via
a Firewall ? Or isn´t is possible to run those programmes?
The University runs a UNIX system.

Help is needed urgently.

TIA,
AXel
