iptables NAT and H.323

I appear to need iptables NAT support for H.323 (NetMeeting) traffic.

I'd found an appropriately named patch on the iptables website, but it
barfed badly when patch-o-matic tried to apply it to kernel 2.6.10. (The
documentation doesn't state what kernel it was written for, but I'd as
a result I'd guess 2.4.)

Unfortunately GnomeMeeting is not an option (even though later versions
can fix up the payload to deal with a NAT gateway), as I have to support
not only GNU/Linux platforms but also Windows ones.

Has anyone any useful cross-platform suggestions, please?

Thanks,
Chris

I looked at that several months ago, and even set one up. Mainly due
to brain-dead clients (the software, not the people) it's not a viable
option. Sadly.

I do use google. I also object to you talking down to me as if I were a
newcomer to usenet.

My request stands: I want to be able to NAT H.323 and its friends. I
don't want a gatekeeper.
