I don't understand the question, do you want to have 2 GnomeMeeting's
and 1 Netmeeting running at the same time?

Anyway, there are several possibilities :
- Using the GNU GateKeeper in proxy mode. The 3 programs will then be
able to run at the same time, but people won't be able to call you using
your IP address, they will have to use something like jeff IP_OF_GK
where jeff is one of the 3 users registered to the GK. That's the
cleanest way. You will still have to register the 3 software to the
gatekeeper as it is not a real proxy.
- Buy a hardware router that natively supports H.323 and forward a
different port for incoming calls (default is 1720) to each of the
machines.
- Forget about using Netmeeting (Why would you do so ;) ) and use IP
Translation and port forwarding using GnomeMeeting. Don't forget to use
different port ranges.

Hope it helps,
