Yann, If there was an easy Open Source way to make NetMeeting do secure authentication, then it would have been done years ago. I seem to recall that NetMeeting can do authentication if the gatekeeper supports the T.120 protocol. There is no Open Source implementation of this protocol, which is massively complex. So the short answer is that there is no way to authenticate NetMeeting users other than IP address security, or asking the user to put their username and password into the alias field, which can be trivially sniffed off the wire.
