[GnomeMeeting-list] simple questions

[Gustavo Homem <gach mega ist utl pt>]

Hello all, 

I am using gnomemeeting 0.93.1 from mdk 9.0 contribs and I have several 
problems. I am behind a linux firewall.

From the FAQ:

" The easiest way to make GnomeMeeting work behind a NAT/PAT gateway is to 
install GnomeMeeting 0.94 or newer, to enable IP translation and to forward 
the required ports to your internal computers. "

It is *easier* or *necessary* to use 0.94 ? 

My iptables configuration seems to forward the appropriate ports:

The problems I face are:

- I can't call most ils users: it just says "call completed ESD resumed"
- When I can call someone we can write and he can see me, but I can't see him 
(altough there are no error messages, and remote video is enabled but I see 
nothing but the gnomemeeting logo)
- sound doesn't work (but I think my /dev/dsp doesn't allow multiple openings, 
so I'll solve this afterwards)

-The mandrake packages on the gnomemeeting website do not indicate which mdk 
distribution they were made for. In fact I tried to upgrade my with rpm -Uvh 
and they broke my system: cpio errors, in openh and gnomemeeting package.

Any help is aprecciated.

Best regards
Gustavo Homem
