(this is what my rules do: forward all traffic from a specified ip execept data on port 80) or does netmeeting use other protocols than tcp or udp which i also have to forward ?? thanks, Corin Check it out => http://www.find-mich.net Sunday, June 16, 2002, 8:07:12 PM, you wrote: AS> On Sunday 16 June 2002 6:54 pm, Corin Langosch wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> im behind a iptables firewall and want to be able to accept incomming >> netmeeting calls.
