Simon,
Do they have to be on the same LAN?
Here is my gnugk.ini,
Is there correct?

GnuGK is a gatekeeper to handle registrations
secureMCU is a Multi-point Conference Unit.
Your users register with your gatekeeper with a name which they can
be contacted with. They then can call the MCU and eachother.

Thanks Simon,
I have static IPs from the ISP. I am running
a linux server with a static IP. How can I tell all users to use my server
and make connections?
I don't understand what feature does gnugk
and openmcu offer. I thought they give me the capability of connecting
many users. But I might be missing something.

Th easiest
way is to download the windows installer for GnuGk v2.2.6 and in the
installer contains the configuration of installing GnuGk behind a NAT
box. You will need to do some port forwarding in the router, the
installer will tell you which ports you need to forward. You should also
install a DDNS service on the machine such as www.dyndns.com or www.noip.com
and enter that address in the installer. This will configure the device
to appear to be on the outside of the NAT so other people can contact
you.
Go to www.pacphone.com and download the secureMCU
installer and install it on the same machine as the gatekeeper, when
installed register it with the gatekeeper via the web interface, make
sure you set the gatekeeper username, that is the name for
people to contact the MCU.
For local
and remote users use the pacphone client. It can be installed
behind NAT boxes without any problems and you register the clients to
the DDNS address you used for your gatekeeper. This will allow all your
clients to talk to eachother.
To host a
conference you can go to the web interface of secureMCU and
invite users to a conference or tell everyone to call the username
used for the gatekeeper.
I hope
that helps

Hi, I want to enable several people at
different locations to have a voice conference.
Each of them have their own ISP and
behind a router. Their PC address is something like 192.168.0.XX. But
behind different public IP address from their ISP using
NAT.
Is there a way for them to join
Netmeeting and have a conference. I notice that everyone has to be on
the same LAN to use netmeeting. I am not sure how gnugk and openmcu
come into play. I tried them a little, but still cannot get people
from other location to join me, even though I can have people on the
same LAN connected.
Is it possible to join multiple people
from different locations using netmeeting? I remember ILS served that
purpose, but it is no longer supported by MS. Is there an alternative
on linux?
Also, when people join gnugk, is there a
way for others to see the list of users signed on?
thanks
Andrew
