FAO - Jonathan Kay (Whiteboard Problem)

[Dave C]

Jonathan Kay : If you read this I was just wandering if you had not replied
to my earlier post as you don't know the problem, or perhaps you are
awaiting somebody else coming back to you?

Hope I'm not being rude by asking you direct but you seem to answer
everybody else bar me :(

Regards
Dave

Greetings Dave,

I'm not really sure what's going on here -- in case you don't know, the Whiteboard is
actually a component from Netmeeting. If you and your contact start Netmeeting (click Start,
then Run, enter "conf" and click OK) then have one of you call the other[click the Call menu
in Netmeeting then choose New Call, enter your contacts' IP (they can find their IP at
http://www.whatismyip.com) and click Call (don't choose Data or Secure)]. Once you've
established a Netmeeting connection, choose the Whiteboard icon in the Netmeeting window.
I'd be interested in hearing your results (this will narrow it down if it's a
Netmeeting/Whiteboard problem or something wrong with the SIP support).

I'm curious however, what's "Windows CP"?
