Finally my friend got his NetMeeting running and registered to 
ils.seconix.com, but we have met some oddities.

First, it seems that he was able to contact me, but I couldn't contact 
him - I was expecting it to be the other way round?  It isn't 
important, really, but it's good to understand what's going on.

We are still having firewall problems.  He had set ZoneAlarm to allow 
NetMeeting full access, and I have the following lines in Shorewall:

#For GnomeMeeting, next 4 lines
#	GM listen port
ACCEPT net	fw	tcp 	1720
#	Needed unless both clients are using H.245 tunneling (NM can't)
ACCEPT	net	fw	tcp	30000:30010
#	For RTP and RTCP channels, audio and video transmission/reception
ACCEPT	net	fw	udp	5000:5003
#	Needed for use with a gatekeeper
#ACCEPT	net	fw	upd	5010:5013

but we still could not make contact.  Finally he stopped ZA and I 
stopped shorewall, and the call went through.  Is there something 
wrong with my rules in Shorewall?  Have I missed something?

Then, for a minute or so we both had audio and video, then my remote 
picture froze.  He said that he was still receiving from me, and the 
audio was fine - much better for me than when I tried NetMeeting last 
year - but I only had a still picture of him.  His screen was still 
showing moving pictures.

Any pointers as the what is wrong, please?

Anne
