hi, I have just today started playing with SIPS at
work and found ser fun.
BTW, all the following is done with micro$oft messenger 4.6 for testing (eugh!)
I have set it all up at home and am trying to connect from work. I know the
connection is getting through the firewall because a tcpdump shows all the
expected results, and I know that ser is running ok, because I can login from
my home workstations.
Does ser do any sort of access control based on ip addresses that may be
causing it to reject my external connections?
No. You have to explicitly specify it in the config file, for example
something like:
if (src_ip==1.2.3.0/24) { drop; }
Increase the debuging level and look in the ser log. It should write
something when it receives a packet.
Also, I have set up the realm with mysql authentication and I can communicate
with others on the same domain, but should I be able to communicate with
other sips users of other private networks (as long as they allow it) without
any configuration.
Do I have to do something to make that work?
No, it should work.
