Before making a H323 call through a H323 gateway, the proper gateway address of TSP "Microsoft H.323 TAPI Service Provider" should
be set via an applet in the control panel.
The relating registry key is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\H323TSP

But netmeeting seems to work in another way: one only need to config the gateway address via the GUI of netmeeting, totally
independent of the H323 TSP's.
The relating registry key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Conferencing

I don't want to change the global H323 gateway settings. At present, I save the H323 gateway settings and change to my own settings
before making my TAPI3 H323 gateway call, then restore them back to the original after the call launched. But only administrators
can change the registry key under win2k. So it's not a good idea.

Anyone knows how the Netmeeting works?

David,
correct, Netmeeting is not a TAPI app and is not using H323.TSP but a
proprietary solution.

Why not change the H323.TSP configuration to the settings you app requires?
At install time of your app I suggest to either ask the user to make the
required config changes manually by bringing up the H323.TSP configuaration
applet via lineConfigProvider() or doing it automatically on users choice.

I guess even with the H323.TSP config dialog it is impossible to change
settings without admin privs. And there is good reason for it ...

No, not me.

Really? So let it be.

If two TAPI apps use different H323.TSP config, they will conflit, only one
can work properly. And I think H323.TSP should be designed for many apps running
well in the same one PC.

David,
o.k., sounds reasonable.
Usually a TSP supports lineGetDevConfig()/lineSetDevConfig() for this, but
H323.TSP does not.
I don't expect H323.TSP to be enhanced regarding this requirement.
