APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Commercial Internet System 1.0 Service Pack 2
This article was previously published under Q161643
SYMPTOMS
NetMeeting 1.0 clients are unable to connect to your multihomed computer
running Internet Locator Server (ILS), but NetMeeting 2.0 or other clients
are able to connect with no problems.
CAUSE
NetMeeting 1.0 uses the ULP interface, which is not compatible with
multihomed ILS servers.
WORKAROUND
Internet Service Providers (ISPs) who are running multihomed ILS servers
should advise all customers to upgrade to Netmeeting 2.0. Because the new
Netmeeting client uses the LDAP interface, customers will find faster
performance and the ability to interact with other users through both audio
and video interfaces over the Internet.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with Microsoft Commercial
Internet Server (MCIS).
MORE INFORMATION
A multihomed server is a server with more then one NIC or IP.
