I am trying to set up an audio conversation using msn messenger 6.1 but says connecting and nothing happens.I am using NAT but have put my PC into the DMZ so should have full access to all the ports.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong ??

The video goes via an MS server that can take care of NAT etc. and so can generally work even with machines on NAT or behind firewalls.

For reasons best known only to Bill the audio does not take a similar route and so will often not work depending on the configuration of the networks at both ends.

Any chance you could set up a VPN between the two points and route the video and audio over that?
