Well it has some H.323 support else outgoing calls would have no incoming audio/video (and you do have incoming audio/video on outgoing calls -- right?). Generally that means that forwarding tcp 1503 and 1720 would allow incoming calls ( that assumes the implemenation is 100% correct). Certainly on the befsr41 that I used things worked and got broken in different firmware versions so you are probably facing the same issue. Use of the dmz is somewhat scary but if your machine has the latest patches and you use a software firewall on the dmz machine you are not really all that exposed. ------------------------ Yahoo!
