I am not sure what you are asking -- Microsoft doesn't run (or currently
sell) any NetMeeting related servers.
NetMeeting alone supports one to one audio/video calls and multiparty data
(whiteboard, application sharing, file transfer, chat) calls.
To have multiparty audio/video calls an H.323 MCU is required. I am not
aware of any public use H.323 MCU servers. There is open source software
(www.openh323.org has an open source audio only MCU -- I think
http://www.asterisk.org/ has an MCU component available as well) and a
number of turnkey solutions (www.radvision.com for example) available.

WITHOUT whiteboard see this: www.festooninc.com/ui.html
NO desktop "sharing" - but desktop "presentation" possible.
And not "1 to many" - but "everybody to everybody"
But no problems with firewalls. |

Actually I was talking about something like Communications server
or an MCU that could support data sessions but cheaper than Radvision
products...
What I am finally thinking is to use 2 computers: one for video/audio
conferencing (probably using Asterisk and a videophone) and another
with Netmeeting for data conferencing....
