Hello SER Folks,

Wondering if anyone can help me out, I am having problems with creating mysql database, I execute the command /usr/sbin/ser_mysql.sh create, I do get asked for a root password, which I am not sure of therefore I execute this command /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password xxxxxxx, here I get the message saying, /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connects to server at 'localhost' failed, along with an error message Error: 'Access denied for user 'root@localhost' (Using password: N0)

How do I overcome this problem?

Another thing I wanted to ask was to increase the number connections to mysql as described in the quick install link http://cvs.berlios.de/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/ser/sip_router/INST ALL

i.e. set=variable = max_connections=500

I really would appreciate your assistance.

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards

Hello,

Klaus, Jan, thank you very much for your answers. Below is the list of RFCs I'm interested in. As Klaus says, maybe some of them don't need explicit support, because ser can route these new messages. Or maybe there are RFCs that are not fully supported. Please, let me know if this is the case and if it could be necessary writting a new module or changing SER core.

By the way, can SER initiate a session release (it means, generate a BYE) or generate a REGISTER to an application server? If not, what would be necessary from your point of view?

Again, thank you very much for your time and knowledge. I know that there are a lot of questions in this message, so thank you.

Curro

(These five RFCs are related to new messages, so I suppose Yes) RFC 2976 (October 2000): "The SIP INFO method".

RFC 3262 (June 2002): "Reliability of provisional responses in Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)". (can SER generate PRACK, besides proxying it?)

RFC 3515 (April 2003): "The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) REFER method".

RFC 3311 (September 2002): "The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) UPDATE method".

RFC 3428 (December 2002): "Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Extension for Instant Messaging".

RFC 3313 (January 2003): "Private Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Extensions for Media Authorization".

RFC 3265 (June 2002): "Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Specific Event Notification". (As far as I know, SER handles SUBSCRIBE and NOTIFY, but I want to know whether SER can act as the subscriber to the event information, it means, generate SUBSCRIBE)

RFC 3327 (December 2002): "Session Initiation Protocol Extension Header Field for Registering Non-Adjacent Contacts".

RFC 3325 (November 2002): "Private Extensions to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Network Asserted Identity within Trusted Networks".

RFC 3323 (November 2002): "A Privacy Mechanism for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)".

RFC 3608 (October 2003): "Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Extension Header Field for Service Route Discovery During Registration".

RFC 3486 (February 2003): "Compressing the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)".

RFC 3455 (January 2003): "Private Header (P-Header) Extensions to the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for the 3rd-Generation Partnership Project (3GPP)".

RFC 3329 (January 2003): "Security Mechanism Agreement for the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)".

Hi,

is there any way to adjust the "local ip" for sems? I.E. with a "listen=my.ip.addr.ess? Is the ip address of sems crucial for voicemail operation?

Since i moved my ser/voicemail instance on a different ip address from the main SER server i have probs with the voicemail module if triggered via a "on_failure" event.

best regards,

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a simple possibility inside ser.cfg to check

if someone is trying to call herself. Or is it only possible with exec_msg where I could match SIP_HF_FROM against SIP_HF_TO or something like this?

I'd need it for the vm-module to determine if someone is trying to reach

his own voice box.

i'm not sure how useful this kind of thing would be, since i would like to user to be able to reach his/her own voice box from ANY phone. also, the user could have several sip uris of his/her own and only one voice box.

a better solution might be to ivr e.g. # "digit" and then get voice box menu.

Hey Guys (And most likely No girls :( )

I'v got this scenario now :

if a user does have voicemail everything is great!. No problems. Thou, my case is that I've got users who does not have a voicemail service, and may disconnect from my gw.

Then when a imcoming call coms, the "caller" get's a 404 (per today). So the way I want it to be is :

if (!lookup("location"){ (lookup("subscirber"){ log(1,"user's not online but does exist"); sl_send_reply("404", "Not found,but exists"); break; } log(1,"404 , user not found"); sl_send_reply("404","Not found"); break; }

If I do it like this,the !lookup("subscriber") will fail, because it cant do this. How can I get this to work ?

I see 2 difrent way's of doing it.

1: Create a database with the name users, and dump all my users from this into that database,, then have the same structure etc as I have in the locations database.. .. As far as I see , this will be a ugly hack.

2: make a new function for this ..

How and what do you guys mean ?

Thanks for a quick answer :) You guys are REALLY helpful both night and day. - Atle

Thanks Raphael,

It looks like action rewriteuser() can be used to replace the called number. Is there a caller' number variable exported, so I can replace the number?

Hello Richard,

The behavior you report is normal. That means, it is not a problem but the main feature of the module. If you want number reader to read the caller's number, you should try to modify the module's code by yourself so that it fits your needs (it is really easy if you can understand c++ code).

Hi,

I've just released the 0.4.2 version of radiusclient library. Main changes since 0.4.1 include:

- Some changes from Debian have been merged in (suggested by Sergei Golod rover@tob.ru):

+ IPv6 attributes added into generic dictionary and radiusclient.h;

+ fixed a bug preventing from using more than one Radius server in fall-back scenario.

- Restored historoc behaviour when in the absence of explicit bindaddr option in the config file operating system is trusted to assign source IP address to outgoing UDP packets according to its routing table. Previously in 0.4.x series address rerutned by gethostbyhane(hostname()) was forced as source IP address for all outgoing UDP packets. The same behaviour can be ontained by specifying `bindaddr: *' (Problem reported by Juha Heinanen jh@tutpro.com, patch by sobomax).

- Added new API function: rc_avpair_log, which allows to create pretty-print representation of full radius request or response (sobomax).

- Extended dictionary parser so that now it is possible to use comments at the end of the configuration lines (Jan Janak jan@iptel.org).

The new version is 100% API/ABI compatible with the old one. It can be downloaded at http://developer.berlios.de/project/showfiles.php?group_id=1208.

As usually bug reports and suggestions are highly appreciated.

Enjoy!

After much head scratching and experimentation I found a light at the end of the tunnel. The problem is I'm stuck in the tunnel and don't seem to be getting anywhere near the light.

I've got SER running on a RH7.3 box (IP 10.3.5.1) with pretty much default config (see ser.cfg below). There are two clients running MSN Messenger 4.6. One client is running WinXP (IP 10.3.5.2) and the other is running Win2k (IP 10.3.5.3). The builds of Messenger are 4.6.0073 (for XP) and 4.6.0083 (for 2k). Both MSN clients are pointed at 10.3.5.1 for their "Communication Service."

When logging in, the XP client gets a password prompt as it should and can login using the proper password.

However, when logging in from the Win2k client, as soon as I click to sign in, an error message appears saying "Signing in to Communications Service failed because the service is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

Here's the ngrep output: ------------------------- ]root@10.3.5.1]# ngrep -qd eth0 src 10.3.5.1 or src 10.3.5.3 or dst 10.3.5.1 or dst 10.3.5.3

My interpretation is that SER is just saying "Access denied," but I never got a chance to input a password.

The real mystery is that it works properly from my WinXP client. I've matched all the settings that I can find. I even tried changing the IP address of the Win2k client to that of the WinXP client and trying to login with the same username that worked on the XP client. Still I get the same service temp. unavailable message. I've also tried uninstalling/reinstalling Messenger 4.6 on the Win2k clients, but that didn't change anything either.

Am I doing something obviously wrong? I would *really* appreciate any guidance or ideas. I'm pretty much at wits end.

My interpretation is that SER is just saying "Access denied," but I

never got a chance to input a password.

The messages are correct -- Windows messenger sends a REGISTER message without digest credentials and SER says 401 Unauthorized (because the credentials are missing). As the next step Windows Messenger is supposed to ask you for username and password and re-send the REGISTER, this time including digest credentials.

The real mystery is that it works properly from my WinXP client. I've

matched all the settings that I can find. I even tried changing the IP address of the Win2k client to that of the WinXP client and trying to login with the same username that worked on the XP client. Still I get the same service temp. unavailable message. I've also tried uninstalling/reinstalling Messenger 4.6 on the Win2k clients, but that didn't change anything either.

Windows messenger does not like when the digest realm is different from To/From domain, this does not seem to be the case here, but I would recommend you to try some real domain -- with dot inside, for example team3.com.

If this does not help, then try to uninstall Windows Messenger and make sure that you also uninstall all libraries (RTC ?) it is using, then try to install exactly the same version as on WinXP (if possible).

I remember that some time ago somebody (Juha ?) told me that it is possible to change some value in the register to disable the realm validation, maybe this would be worth trying (I do not know more details).

I created a domain in DNS called team3. In that domain all my hosts are called "host.team3"

So now in my MSN configs, my SER server is referenced as popov.team3 and I login as admin@popov.team3.

Unfortunately, this produces the same result as before: the XP client gets in, but the 2K client never prompts for a password. You think it's because my "TLD" has four chars instead of three?

I do suspect that not all bits of MSN are being uninstalled because when I reinstalled, it remembered the IP address of the SER server. Any clue how to uninstall those libraries?

Also, it is not possible to install the exact same version on 2K and XP. I tried earlier and it complained that the XP version is only for systems running XP.

I just tried making my domain "team3.com" but the problem persists. -Chris

Hi, I'd like to get some recommendations from other users what the best option for an rtp proxy to use. From what I have seen the options are:

1.) Ser MEDIA proxy

2.) rtpproxy

3.) asterisk ( perhaps with some slight modifications )

What are people using? and any insight would be helpful, as to which model seems to work the best.

regards, Andy

Hi,

I am using x-lite softphone. If I put the non-existing "username", it doesn't allow me to login because if it fails www_challenge. However if I still have the correct "authentication user", I can still pass proxy_challenge and make the call even though the <from> field has the wrong address. Do it mean someone can appear to be another caller or non-existing caller to make the call? Is this normal according to RFC or ser?

Thanks, Richard

That's propably a domain matching problem. Take a look in to documentation: http://iptel.org/ser/doc/seruser/seruser.html#AEN1039

Hi all, The SIP phones on the Ser server have two different define: Exchange 1: number is like 61691xxx as caller: when it calls to PSTN, dialing 0+PSTN number when it calls to 6169xxxx(expect 61691xxx), dialing 0+6169xxxx when it calls to 61691xxx, dialing only 1xxx as callee: wher PSTN and 6169xxxx(expect 61691xxx) calls, dialing 61691xxx when 61691xxx calls, dialing 1xxx Exchange 2: number is like 6169xxxx(expect 61691xxx) as caller: call callee's number as callee: wher PSTN and 6169xxxx(expect 61691xxx) calls, dialing 6169xxxx when 61691xxx calls, dialing 0+6169xxxx

Using prefix() and rewriteuser() to make call mabye cause call-leg can not find. How to do that?
