Re: [SR-Users] Kamailio presence (NAT, XCAP)

Hello, I'm just trying to use SIP as a replacement for Skype, nothing more than that. All is working except of presence. Using Jitsi 2.4.4997 (Windows x64) from home behind NAT and kamailio 4.1.4+wheezy on a rented server somewhere. My biggest problem is that I don't know exactly how it is supposed to work. Ok, this is what I understood so far: the clients connect via SIP to the server and can call each other, but for some reason the server can't notify them via SIP of presence changes when they are behind NAT. So the clients also connect to the built in xcap-server, register themselves as presence "watchers" and the xcap-server notifies them via udp/tcp of presence changes of the other users which are watched. All is very nice but it's not working and I don't know where to look for the problem. Which are exactly the steps in communication and what data exactly is there sent which way (when working correctly, which it doesn't) - no clue. I somehow put the configuration together from the 2-3 examples I found on the internet, I don't know if it is ok to attach something to this email, so here it is: https://vatav.cc/kam/kam_cfg.7z Here is the network activity on the server: https://vatav.cc/kam/kam_ngrep.7z So me ("radu") and "alice" are home behind the NAT, one is online and wants to see how the other one goes online and offline. I don't know what exactly to look for, but it doesn't look to me like there is anything sent to one user when the other one goes on-/off-line (there is a lot of "proxy authentication required" which drives me nuts, again I don't know if this is correct or not; Jitsi seems to be connected to the XCAP server, if I type in a wrong address for "XCAP server" Jitsi complains it can't connect). Some other things: - "kamctl online" shows almost real-time who is logged-in, so this works - siremis shows a bunch of users in "watchers list", but none in "active watchers list" - actually when a user goes online it contains the contacts of that user, but only briefly, when I refresh the view, the list is empty again. I don't know if this is how it is supposed to work, anyway, Jitsi doesn't show any change of the status of the user who changed status at all. Any help would be appreciated. It's sad something this simple as I need (basic Skype replacement) is so difficult to get working. Maybe this is why there is relatively low interest in SIP and everybody stays with MS/Google/... because "there isn't something else".
