hi, i have been playing around with ser now for around a month and am
getting nowhere.
i have two sites running ser on redhat (7.3 and 8). the ser machines are
each behind a redhat (7.3) firewall with port 5060(udp) forwarded to the ser
machines.
i cannot see presence of any users at the other site and vice versa.
please can someone guide me through how they would set up such an operation.
this really is a hand-holding job i'm afraid.
very grateful for a quick response.
cheers

Hello,
Do you have record routing enabled ? (You must have rewriteFromRoute()
and addRecordRoute() in your script). Please send us as much information
as possible (ser configs, ser logs, message dumps etc..)

hi, thanks for the quick response, its great of you to help out :)
ok here's a summary of all the probs.
using msn messenger i can connect to the ser server at my house from my home
lan. i cannot connect to the server at work nor can i connect from work to
my house.
if i use sipsack from the server itself i get

and that goes on forever. it just times out if i do the -vv option.
all the while this is going on, i get messages like these in the message

i have posted my config to my site
(http://www.genestate.com/debug/sip/ser.cfg)
i have not taken any special steps as far as firewall routing or anything
like that other than forwarding port 5060 as i said previously.
I do not know anything about the config directives you just spoke of so I do
not know how to answer you.
i think the beast thing would be for me to start from scratch and do it
properly with help from someone who knows more that me as I have probably
screwed this attemp :)
thanks again

This is an endless loop. Which means their is a problem with the
configuration.
If i lookup the IP for genestate.com i get 62.78.46.80. If understand it right
you just forwards the port 5060 from the public IP to the private IP
10.194.217.5, right?
In this case the uri==myself will not work, because Ser will just listen on
the private IP (which DNS name this have ever). Because of this every request
hits the t_relay, which looks up the destination IP (62.78.46.80) and send it
their again. You can try to add 'alias=genstate.com', but generaly you will
encounter probably MANY problems with Network Address Tranlastion (NAT). And
if you use NAT on both sides of the setup this will probably not work without
additional work.

New subject: [Serusers] SIP_DOMAIN and myself
Hi All
I am new to Linux as a whole so forgive be if some of this should be
obvious
1. I have set my domain in the cfg file but I have not set up the
relevant DNS server entries and a reverse DNS on my IP will not yield
the domain I have set. I reference the SER using the IP in my SIP
device is this OK.
2. Does the above have any consequence for "uri==myself"
3. Setting the Environment variable SIP DOMAIN - is this something I
should be doing every time I use serctl or should I be putting it is a
start up file somewhere.
4. Lastly what is digest authentication - and when would I need it. (I
have set up mysql and persistence)

It should work. But I recommend you to use real domain that can be
resolved using DNS.
2. Does the above have any consequence for

No, it will handle the IP address.
3. Setting the Environment variable SIP DOMAIN - is

You can put it anywhere you want.
4. Lastly what is digest authentication - and when

Digest authentication is an authentication mechanism that allows you
to verify that a user knows his password and thus you can authorize
him -- for example to access a PSTN gateway, make calls using your
server and so on.

Hi All
I would like to use groups to restrict calling such that a person may
only call another person that is in a group that they belong to. A
person may however belong to more than one group.
Is there anyway to use the existing groups feature to implement such a
restriction.
Thanks,

Hello,
yes, you can use existing group membership checks for that.

I have seen the same thing happen on Solaris with other scripts. If you
type "exit" on the terminal, it should continue booting. The problem has
to do with the startup script (not the ser.cfg). It somehow is unable to
exit after it starts the process (in this case SER).

OK, there is no addRecordRoute in your config script so you will have to
add it in config files of BOTH SIP servers. Simply add addRecordRoute()
just before line containing if(!t_relay()) {...
Without addRecordRoute() NOTIFY messages will be send directly from one
UA to the other and your firewall will block it.
But it will still not handle responses properly. To do that you will
have to put public IP of NAT box into Via and into Record-Route headers
and this is currently under development, I recommend you to wait for the
next release.

i have posted my config to my site
(http://www.genestate.com/debug/sip/ser.cfg)
i have not taken any special steps as far as firewall routing or anything
like that other than forwarding port 5060 as i said previously.
I do not know anything about the config directives you just spoke of so I do
not know how to answer you.
i think the beast thing would be for me to start from scratch and do it
properly with help from someone who knows more that me as I have probably
screwed this attemp :)
thanks again

what about running some sort of sip proxy on the firewalls?
i have seen a few on freshmeat etc, but have no idea yes or no.

Hello,
usually the NOTIFYs are sent directly to contact address which might
advertise a different port than standard 5060. If the request has to
pass the firewall and the port is blocked then the message is dropped.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
Daniel

i have two sites running ser on redhat (7.3 and 8). the ser machines are

i cannot see presence of any users at the other site and vice versa.
please can someone guide me through how they would set up such an operation.
this really is a hand-holding job i'm afraid.
