Take a look at

http://linux-igd.sourceforge.net/

It will provide UPnP support for linux iptables... and it work w msn 
voice, file transfert and video (but no sure)

No, MSN uses Proxy but Netmeeting still uses H323 protocol..

Read it up. there's like 5-7 ports needing opening on the firewall and forwarding.. and even then it breaks unless you use the H323 patch.

I think they can make outgoing calls but it's the incomming that's the
problem.. i'm mena think about it.. the poor firewall gets a incomming call,
it doesn't know who to put it through the poort damn blonde receiptionist...
;)

If someone wrote some sort of H323 version of the old ICQ module for
ipchains that would be great because it could track MSN user logins and know
where they are, possibly some sort of connection tracking RELATED
connections and redirect to te right user.... yeah admin heaven I'm in at
the mo'... ;P he he

it's too complicated for incoming calls...

Thanks,

Not really.. the only few things I can suggest it to grab all
sources(kernel,iptables,etc) and to backup your original source if any found
in /usr/src/linux. Then copy the .config found in that directory and copy to
the new kernel source and use 'make oldconfig' which will help heaps.

if .config doesn't exist then you'll have to configure your kernel yourself
and it'll probably take a few goes before you get it working. he he

Also in /boot/ directory, don't replace any entries but make new ones..

here's my one as an example below (/etc/lilo.conf). So if the kernel fails,
you can go back to an earlier one.. ;)

boot=/dev/md0
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
linear
default=SG1-2.4.19
#default=SG2-2.4.18-new

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19
       label=SG1-2.4.19
       read-only
       root=/dev/md5

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.19-at
       label=SG2-2.4.19-at
       read-only
       root=/dev/md5

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-3
       label=SG2-2.4.18-new
       read-only
       root=/dev/md5

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-2
       label=SG3-2.4.18
       read-only
       root=/dev/md5

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.2-2
       label=SG4-2.4.2
       initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.2-2.img
       read-only
       root=/dev/md5

If I'm not wrong, I think MSN uses Net Meeting for chatting and if this is
correct, you need the patch-o-matic patch for H323 to allow incoming H323
calls.
The bad side to this is that it only supports 1 machine behind the firewall
because you have to DNAT to a specified machine to receive any outside
calls.. AFAIK, this is what I had to do for Net Meeting..

Thanks,
