Thanks for your response.

I did read the section about the secret in the kb url. I followed the example and inserted the test users on tFe url (101, 102, 103) and they have secret set to NULL. I have tried both secret=NULL and secret="" and Asterisk still asks for authentication. Also when I do "sip show peers" I get:

Name/username             Host                                    Dyn Forcerport ACL Port     Status      Description                      Realtime
kamailio-inbound          kamailioIP                               a             5060     Unmonitored

I added qualify=yes and now:

Name/username             Host                                    Dyn Forcerport ACL Port     Status      Description                      Realtime
kamailio-inbound         kamailioIP                               a             5060     UNREACHABLE

Could this be the issue? I have verified that Kamailio receives the responses by doing ngrep and I can see the SIP 401 from Asterisk.

Maybe I am missing something else? I'm not sure I understand how Asterisk's peer selection affects this. When I received the registration request from Kamailio, the From: address and domain are the same as the To: address and domain, which are the values I have set in the sipusers table. 

Another thing, even though the client handset says registered, the table 'sipregs' is not updated with fullcontact, regseconds, or any data at all. Yet I can still make a call. So maybe Asterisk is not authenticating INVITES (whether or not it's registered) and that's why I can call.

Any further help or things I should try?

You could remove secret= on extensiones to check if its related to authentication or not

You must not request authentication to kamailio in order to work properly in front of Asterisk

As Daniel mention check if Kamailio peer is created and extensiones have no secret.. you would need to add alternate sippasswd table for kamailio authentication

Hi, I've been following this integration tutorial http://kb.asipto.com/asterisk:realtime:kamailio-4.0.x-asterisk-11.3.0-astdb and have a successful registration and I can even make calls through my asterisk box.

However what is unusual to me is that every time a phone registers with Kamailio, that is forwarded to Asterisk (as expected), yet Asterisk replies with 401 Unauthorized. Oddly enough the phone registers and can still make calls. What worries me is that as we scale to 100's of cps, this seemingly erroneous message may slow down Asterisk because it's trying to handle authentication for users which have already been authenticated by Kamailio. If this behavior is expected, then that would be good to know as well.

This is the sip debug from ASTERISK (I have replaced IP's with the names of the servers):
