If you are looking for H.323 capability behind a linux netfilter NAT 
firewall, I have had luck with the netfilter.org patch-o-matic 
ip_conntrack_h323 or ip_nat_h323.  The rules I needed to add were rather 
odd, but it seems to work with this crap Sony H.323 proprietary VTC box 
that one school here has.

-A CAMPUSFROM -m state --state RELATED -m helper --helper h323 -j ACCEPT
-A CAMPUSTO -d 10.10.0.110 -m state --state RELATED -m helper --helper 
h323 -j ACCEPT

These are the rules in the custom ruleset that uses this.  I don't 
really understand how it works.  Ask netfilter upstream if you need to 
figure it out.
