We prove that the defocusing quintic wave equation,
with Neumann boundary conditions, is globally well-posed on
$H^1_N(\Omega) \times L^2( \Omega)$ for any smooth (compact) domain
$\Omega \subset {\Bbb R}^3$. The proof relies on one hand on $L^p$
estimates for the spectral projector, and on the other hand on
a precise analysis of the boundary value problem, which turns out to
be much more delicate than in the case of Dirichlet boundary
conditions.
