Netmeeting works in Windows 7

Netmeeting works in Windows 7

Here's how, assuming that you are connecting to a private network.

* Install XP virtual machine and run it
* In the title bar, Tools->Settings->Networking
      o Change the adapter from NAT to your installed hardware network adapter
* Setup VPN in the XP VM, run it, and connect to your private network
* Enable the windows firewall in the XP VM (optional but recommended)
* Start->run->conf
      o Configure netmeeting


yes Netmeeting does work in Win 7 but I can't use the Sharing function (it was grey out and can't be selected). Other user who can continue to share their apps/desktop.
1) "Restore down" (i.e. un-maximize) the VM window to get access to the tools menu 2) Select "Disable integration Features" from the "tools" menu 3) (Re)maximize the VM window 4) (Re)launch Netmeeting only after previous steps were complete 5) (Re)join any call you were in where you wanted to share an app or your desktop 6) Share like you did before W7
