Hi, Today we had an issue on one of our openser machines. Some CPEs that were trying to register came from an IP address that for some reason would not (or very slowly, or both) resolve to a DNS name. Therefore openser was very slow to respond to any incoming SIP message, resulting in loads of unreachable customers. About one third of the registration attempts was succeeding and I think hardly any call attempts succeeded. What lead us to the DNS problem was that we increased the loglevel from 3 (our normal loglevel) to 7 and we noticed lots of "comp_ip: could not rev_resolve ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" messages. Why is the function eval_elem() in route.c calling comp_ip which in turn wants to resolve an ip address? Is it really necessary? Naturally I will try to find out why the dns resolver was taking so long, but I'm having trouble finding out from the source why resolving an ip address is necessary. Thanks! -- Andreas (who's very sleepy, it took quite a while to figure this one out)
