Unknown. I have zero experience or knowledge of it. Will it work in a DMZ? The reason I ask is that for the folks out of the country, the CEO is likely to want to videoconference with them while they are at their homes - that is, the CEO would be in the office, the others at their homes off-hours, at least some times. Thus, they won't have a VPN connection - we have a SonicWall SSL VPN unit here, which is not really amenable to forwarding a chat/video session..
