Ig. You need a firewall which can safely proxy H.323. Firewall-1, for example, has a proxy for it. Alternatively, you 
can follow Microsoft's advice for "configuring" your firewall, but I wouldn't recommend it. Basically, you have to 
allow UDP through to all ports above 1024. This is generally frowned upon. ;-)

Best of luck,
Mike
