Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] registering to an ILS through the gnugkproxy

[adrian golumbovici t-online de (Adrian Golumbovici)]

Yeah, you're right. I think that is the only solution. Stupid thing is that
I thought it would be easier to get her to figure out her own external ip
and didn't do it on her PC. It's a pretty long drive to go there and add the
dyndns stuff, but I suppose if that is the only sollution... Thx. mate.
Helpfull as always. :)

Anyway, when will GM be ported to Win32? :)

Best regards,
Adrian
