TeRRiblE 0 Posted September 25, 2001 Has anyone succeded to do a webcam conversation with messenger? I tried with some friends of mine and the webcam conversation only works with net-meeting. No success at all with messenger. No sound, nothing... I have zone alarm pro which I disableled (works with net-meeting, zone alarm on), no success... My friends are behind a linux firewall which has been configured to work with net-metting at least. I guess there is not much difference between the way messsenger and net-meeting handle the webcam streaming.. hmm also, I saw somewhere thet there was going to be a fairly large windows update online (today), and especialy some messenger enhancements. Hope this will cut some bugs instead of adding more features.. well.. Thanks for any clues! Share this post Link to post
TeRRiblE 0 Posted September 25, 2001 Ho.. in here : http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/using/howto/communicate/videoconf.asp it says (last sentence): If you are on a local area network behind a firewall (for example, a corporate network), you can talk to someone who is behind the same firewall that you are, but you may not be able to connect on a computer–to–computer call with someone outside the firewall. I don' t belive it, there should be a way to configure this trough a firewall.. Share this post Link to post
