This seems there is nothing that can be done about it. It is a local
problem. Are you using some kind of firewall?


No, but thanks for the suggestion because that got me thinking. Maybe there was something that was blocking the required ports. And when I checked, sure enough, gnomemeeting tries to use the same ports as does OpenVPN:

2004/03/22 14:34:26.968 6:10.741 H225 Answer:8341f18 RTP_UDP SetRemoteSocketInfo: session=1 data channel, new=128.112.24.88:5002, local=140.180.162.204:5000-5001, remote=128.112.24.88:5002-5003

OpenVPN uses port 5000 as default, and port above 5000 for each client connection. I shut down OpenVPN and the connection went through smoothly.

Is it possible to instruct GM to use other ports (preferrably, high above in the 5-digits range)? I have a fairly extensive OpenVPN installation, and the port numbers are hardcoded in every user's config file (which would have to be changed manually). I see Netmeeting uses ports in ~49000 range for the h323 connection. Is there a way to make gnomemeeting use similar ports (it's not a problem for me to recompile it, if that's what it takes).
