Siet The issue is that the lifesize (you are using) and marial do not support H.460.18/.19 You need to see this in the trace of the RRQ featureSet = { replacementFeatureSet = false supportedFeatures = 1 entries { [0]={ id = standard 18 Neither of them do so neither of them are able to work behind a NAT. Xmeeting does not support H.460.18/.19 however it is using STUN to open pinhole in the NAT and register with gatekeeper using the detected external IP address and port hence the RCF with data=NoNat in the nonStandard field. The use of STUN only works with some NAT and not all and some of the calls will fail. There are a quite a few hardware however very few software devices that I know of (other than PacPhone) that actually supports H.460.18/.19.

I realized that H.460.18 is only supported in the latest release (2.3.1) so that is why I compiled my own version of 2.3.1. This version however has the issues described in my previous email: Registration of endpoints end up in a loop. > However registration for LifeSize and Merial does not go through.
