[GnomeMeeting-list] Everyone is "user not found" !

[Dave S <gnomemeeting pusspaws net>]

I am running Gentoo 1.4, Broadband 512KB through a router firewall, 
Gnomemeeting 0.98.5, kernel 2.4.25
Video & audio are AOK (Phew :-) ) but I have a problem with connecting.

I have disabled H323 - H245 tunneling and also disabled H323 - fast 
start procedure

I can contact ils.seconix.com, get a long list of people on line - but 
when I try to call anyone, and I mean anyone I repeatedly get
"user not found"  I have tried literally dozens and dozens of people 
with no joy.

My router is a Netgear DG834, (Which is Netmeeting compatible). It 
allows all outgoing connections, blocks all incomming connections except 
H323 (TCP 1720)

I have booted into 98SE and netmeeting works fine so I think my router / 
Firewall is OK & I have a gnomemeeting problem.

Any Ideas ?
