No you do not have to be on the same LAN. PacPhone can work behind NAT boxes
with GnuGk. All the user needs to do is register with the GnuGk on the
public Internet and the software will do the NAT Traversal for you. You
should be able to make and receive calls without any problems.

GnuGK is a gatekeeper to handle registrations
secureMCU is a Multi-point Conference Unit.
If you are using Linux you can use openMCU which you will need to build
yourself. Download pwlib openh323 and openMCU from
http://www.voxgratia.org/downloads.html.
Your users register with your gatekeeper with a name which they can be
contacted with. They then can call the MCU and eachother.

Thanks Simon,
I have static IPs from the ISP. I am running a linux server with a
static IP. How can I tell all users to use my server and make connections?
I don't understand what feature does gnugk and openmcu offer. I
thought they give me the capability of connecting many users. But I might be
missing something.

Th easiest way is to download the windows installer for GnuGk v2.2.6
and in the installer contains the configuration of installing GnuGk behind a
NAT box. You will need to do some port forwarding in the router, the
installer will tell you which ports you need to forward. You should also
install a DDNS service on the machine such as www.dyndns.com or www.noip.com
and enter that address in the installer. This will configure the device to
appear to be on the outside of the NAT so other people can contact you.
Go to www.pacphone.com and download the secureMCU installer and
install it on the same machine as the gatekeeper, when installed register it
with the gatekeeper via the web interface, make sure you set the gatekeeper
username, that is the name for people to contact the MCU.
For local and remote users use the pacphone client. It can be
installed behind NAT boxes without any problems and you register the clients
to the DDNS address you used for your gatekeeper. This will allow all your
clients to talk to eachother.
To host a conference you can go to the web interface of secureMCU
and invite users to a conference or tell everyone to call the username used
for the gatekeeper.
I hope that helps
Simon

Subject: [Openh323gk-users] How do I setup a conference server
Hi, I want to enable several people at different locations to have
a voice conference.
Each of them have their own ISP and behind a router. Their PC
address is something like 192.168.0.XX. But behind different public IP
address from their ISP using NAT.
Is there a way for them to join Netmeeting and have a conference.
I notice that everyone has to be on the same LAN to use netmeeting. I am not
sure how gnugk and openmcu come into play. I tried them a little, but still
cannot get people from other location to join me, even though I can have
people on the same LAN connected.
Is it possible to join multiple people from different locations
using netmeeting? I remember ILS served that purpose, but it is no longer
supported by MS. Is there an alternative on linux?
Also, when people join gnugk, is there a way for others to see the
list of users signed on?
thanks
Andrew
