That would be cool - all of my internal PC's have static IP's anyway, - I
keep a DHCP service running just for portable devices, and visitors etc..

I can set up port forwarding no problem, and I have no problem restricting
myself to only 1 specific PC on the internal LAN using Netmeeting to the
outside world... (which I guess I would have to with a simple port forward
rule, and not a H.323 Proxy as you mentioned...)

Hmm... perhaps a call to Draytek customer support with a feature request is
in order....

If you could drop me the port numbers sometime, it would save me looking
them up myself... :-)

Cheers.
