SUMMARY
For information on using NetMeeting with Microsoft Proxy Server or other firewalls, please refer to Chapter 4 of the NetMeeting Resource Kit. The Resource Kit is available at the following URL:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/NetMeeting/Corp/ResKit/default.ASP

The following excerpt from the NetMeeting Resource Kit applies to Microsoft Proxy Server versions 1.0 and 2.0:

FIREWALL LIMITATIONS

Some firewalls cannot support an arbitrary number of virtual internal IP addresses, or cannot do so dynamically. With these firewalls, you can establish outbound NetMeeting connections from computers inside the firewall to computers outside the firewall, and you can use the audio and video features of NetMeeting. Other people, though, cannot establish inbound connections from outside the firewall to computers inside the firewall. Typically, this restriction is due to limitations in the network implementation of the firewall.
