Setting Up NetMeeting
If you are setting up NetMeeting on your local network, ask your network administrator for assistance. | Microsoft NetMeeting is a program that allows you to conduct a meeting over the Internet or on a local network. When you set up NetMeeting, you are added to the Internet Locator Server (ILS), which is a directory of NetMeeting users, so other people using NetMeeting can find you. The default ILS is ils.microsoft.com. You can use this server, select another server available through Microsoft, or change the default to your local network.
NetMeeting 2.0 works with Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0. For more information about the NetMeeting features supported in Windows NT 4.0, see the Windows NT Web site at http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstation/ NetMeeting is installed automatically with the full installation of Internet Explorer.
