Messenger/Netmeeting - Application Sharing with more than one user

[bateman23]

Hi,
i'm trying to use Microsoft Messenger/Netmeeting with "Application Sharing". Until now i only manage to get one user seeing my apps. Is there any way to grant access to a second user as well? According to the message in Messenger it's not possible. But at least Netmeeting should work.

Any hints?
Thanks & best regards,
Daniel

It should work in NetMeeting, I think the other users must contact your machine so that your machine is the controlling host?

Hi, thanks for the answer. I was trying to do so and "hosting a meeting". The other person could enter my IP and i saw her in the list. However i was not able to either chat, talk or share my apps.
Any idea what went wrong and what could be a solution?

Is there probably another (free) product from microsoft, or any other vendor as Netmeeting is out of it's lifecycle anyway?

Thanks a lot,
Daniel

Is there a firewall problem interfering at either end between the two of you?

See if the first two articles help?

You can still have NetMeeting in Vista if you want.

A hotfix is available to install NetMeeting 3.02 on computers that are running Windows Vista

The only other program from Microsoft that comes close, that I know about, is Windows Live Messenger. Maybe someone else can help us out here.

A friend sent me this yesterday and it works pretty well. It's called Microsoft SharedView and it's free.
