Automatically accept incoming calls

[Pedro]

Is there any way to make Messenger 6.0 automatically accept incoming
calls?

I would like to use my webcam to see my home from my workplace.
I have DSL connection at home. I start there one session of .NET (A)
and leave the webcam connected.
I have LAN connection at workplace. I start another different .NET (B)
session.
Then, I call to (A) from (B), to make a webcam session, but... if
anybody press ACCEPT button, nothing happens... and there's nobody at
home (I hope!)

One solution is to use VNC from workplace (or PCANYWHERE). This way, I
can get control of my home computer and press ACCEPT button
remotely...
But sometimes I lose my DSL connection and when it reconnects, IP
changes because it's a dymanic IP... and I can't use VNC.

Sorry for my english and thanks
Pedro.

Greetings Pedro,

Unfortunately at the moment there is no functionality like this -- hopefully this will be
added in the future.
