I've used netmeeting before and I've had it registered to Gnugk. I
never noticed any major problems when communicating to another netmeeting
client that is also registered to Gnugk. I think the problem is that you have
to install some patch with some old versions of netmeeting for it to work
properly with Gnugk. But if you like to look at other alternatives, you might want to also
check out Windows Messenger which is based on SIP and has a white board. You
can then download SER (Sip Express Router) from www.iptel.org website and have
Windows Messenger work with it, which works very nicely since I've worked with
it in the past. Freddy -----Original Message----- From: openh323gk-users-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Kendall Sent: Tuesday, March 01, 2005 7:43 PM To: Subject: whiteboard in a voip client Several people on this list have stated that netmeeting is not good client software and have recommended openphone as a better client. But openphone has no whiteboard. Netmeeting has the following features: audio video whiteboard (a rather well-designed one ) application sharing zero-cost runs on windows Openphone lacks whiteboard and app sharing. It seems to me that none of the free clients listed on the h323 site have a whiteboard or app sharing. Can someone please suggest a voip client that meets the following requirements: whiteboard or app sharing cheap or free ( no monthly bills ) runs on Windows reliable ( unlike netmeeting ) tunnels through firewalls + NAT ( perhaps using gnugk ) Do the H323 wizards consider whiteboard and app-sharing to be important features for a voip client, or are they just crazy features with little usefulness? Is this the reason that so few of the open source voip clients offer whiteboard and app-share? Please speculate. Am I making a mistake when I look for a voip client with an integrated whiteboard? Is it better to look for a standalone whiteboard program that could be used simultaneously with Openphone and still be able to tunnel through firewalls? Can anyone suggest such a whiteboard program. Any observations would be appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real
