I am behind a NAT, though the whole network is seperate, ie, I don't
proxy through a NAT, the machiene is fully internal.  Like I had
described in my previous message, you could forward calls to other

caller were slim.

what's offered out there, I'm sure we've made a wise decision.  There's
still a nagging feeling that the Polycom's would have done a better job.
