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..
