    NetMeeting comes from Microsoft. If You expect to use full options
    neither You must read full of holes documentation or if You have not
    time to think "why this doesn't work?".
    IMHO if You need "secure" network forget about NetMeeting into this
    network. People shouldn't connect their personal laptops too.
    Divide Your network.
