Internet has been deep into all corners of the world, NetMeeting as an Internet user to provide real-time voice chat Service software is not necessary, NetMeeting in the use of two important ways are not people's attention, but after the use of the trust you will be greatly facilitated.
1.NetMeeting can directly use the network (TCP/IP) address to call each other, this way as long as you know the other side of the network address, it can be entered in the call. This way when using NetMeeting, the callee must be using the computer, and its NetMeeting must be open. If the other person does not open NetMeeting, then only through e-mail to contact each other to open NetMeeting, if the other computer power is not open, this way can not be done. This is a time-consuming way to use NetMeeting, but it does not require a directory server. When you use NetMeeting this way, when you enable the new call window, you must select Network TCP/IP for the call mode.
The address entry must select the network TCP/IP address of the computer that is present and in use on the network.
2. Use NetMeeting via a directory server on the network (either a directory server on the internal network or a directory server on the Internet). When using NetMeeting in this manner, when the new call window is enabled, the call must be selected as a directory server, and the address entry must select the network address of the directory server that exists and is in use on the network. The NetMeeting software itself provides a number of directory server addresses, such as the ils1~5 in the list window of the "Log on to directory server's server name when starting NetMeeting" on the call page in the Tools, Options window. Microsoft.com are all the user servers that Microsoft has reserved on the Internet. Many of the domestic Internet hotline also has a directory server, users if you want to, you can go to the commonly used computer newspapers to check, or to the Post office to check. When you use NetMeeting in this way, as long as you are connected to a directory server and there are many groups of users talking on the directory server, you can join any conversation group that allows you to join, no need to contact.
Also, when we start NetMeeting, there may be a "directory server not Found" error, for the following reasons:
(1) The computer is not connected to the network.
(2) The directory server selected in the list of directory servers on the call page in the Tools Options window is not open, or your computer cannot be connected to it.
Workaround:
(1) must first connect the computer to the network.
(2) When you do not know the directory server address, do not use the directory server call, but directly with the computer you want to talk to the network (TCP/IP) address direct call.
(3) Inquiries to the Post office, or through the computer Data query online hotline directory server address, and then use the directory server NetMeeting.
