Hi,

I've been trying to find a solution to setting up my Linux masq machine to 
allow video conferencing for Windows clients connected to the Internet 
through the Linux masq machine. I've researched USENET without success and 
I tried to contact the author of an article posted here regarding VDOPhone 
but he has not responded. Please pardon my intrusion and at the risk of 
being redundant, I am hoping someone here can revisit the topic and help me 
out.

Has anyone had any success configuring a Linux IP Masquerade/port 
forwarding box to allow the NAT'ed Windows machines behind the masq box to 
use Intel's Video Phone or VDOPhone video conferencing applications? My 
setup is pretty standard stuff:

My masq box uses a 2.0.36 kernel running ip masquerade with a static IP and 
DSL connection to the Internet. The PC's (Windows) on my internal office 
network use NAT and private IP addresses (192.168.x.x) and connect to the 
Internet through the masq machine. Irc, icq, real audio, ftp, telnet, http, 
etc.,  is working fine.

So far, I've been able to configure my masq Linux box to get CUSEEME on the 
Windows machines running successfully using port forwarding, but I have not 
had any success getting Intel's Video Phone or VDOPhone working.

With regard to Intel's Video Phone, a guy at Intel said that the app uses 
rotating port numbers, so this app is unusable from behind a Linux masq 
box. Could there be a workaround solution using ipportfw or an ip-masq module?

With regard to the VDOPhone app, I followed the instructions from the Masq 
Applications website (http://www.tsmservices.com/masq/) as to how to 
configure the ip_masq_vdolive module with partial success. People can see 
and hear me but I can't see and hear them. Any ideas?

As always, any help or insight you could suggest would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to all Linux gurus in advance,
Tom
