Hi,

I downloaded the ser-0.8.14_linux_i386 tar zipped archive from the iptel.org website. Unzipped it in the / directory and then got the SIP server running from /usr/local/sbin/ directory.

I am using the linphone version 1.0.0 pre-installed on SUSE linux 9.3. But I am running into configuration issues while trying to configure the SIP Express Router (ser) to run as a proxy/ registrar server. I made the following changes in the Preferences menu of linphone:

Automatically guess the SIP Identity as say, “user@192.40.40.15” Add proxy/ registrar server – SIP Identity: “sip:afila@192.40.40.15” and SIP Proxy server: “sip:192.40.40.56”

No changes were made to the ser.cfg file that comes with the distribution.

My question is, should some changes be made to the ser.cfg file in order for a basic registration erquest to be received and accepted? If yes, could some one please suggest the changes? If no, what could I be doing wrong over here? Please help!

My ser.cfg file is as follows:

# # $Id: ser.cfg,v 1.21.4.1 2003/11/10 15:35:15 andrei Exp $ # # simple quick-start config script #

# ------------------------- request routing logic -------------------

# main routing logic

route{

# initial sanity checks -- messages with # max_forwards==0, or excessively long requests if (!mf_process_maxfwd_header("10")) { sl_send_reply("483","Too Many Hops"); break; }; if ( msg:len > max_len ) { sl_send_reply("513", "Message too big"); break; };

# we record-route all messages -- to make sure that # subsequent messages will go through our proxy; that's # particularly good if upstream and downstream entities # use different transport protocol record_route(); # loose-route processing if (loose_route()) { t_relay(); break; };

# if the request is for other domain use UsrLoc # (in case, it does not work, use the following command # with proper names and addresses in it) if (uri==myself) {

if (method=="REGISTER") {

# Uncomment this if you want to use digest authentication # if (!www_authorize("iptel.org", "subscriber")) { # www_challenge("iptel.org", "0"); # break; # };

save("location"); break; };

# native SIP destinations are handled using our USRLOC DB if (!lookup("location")) { sl_send_reply("404", "Not Found"); break; }; }; # forward to current uri now; use stateful forwarding; that # works reliably even if we forward from TCP to UDP if (!t_relay()) { sl_reply_error(); };

}

Regards.
