Being very interested in SIP Routers and SIP Softphones is is an obvious step to SIP Servers etc. Having found OpenSER on the Web I have decided that I should at least get a system that I can run locally to use for testing kit and to demonstart to whomever the potential of SIP communication. I realise that I need a "server" and a Linux OS to run on I would be obliged if someone could advise the most reasonable lump of Hardware to use by giving a indication of say type of Processor and Memory requirements. I have to hand a Chassis that has a AMD K6-2 350 Mhz processor and 106 Meg of memory. I do also have a another chassis with a AMD K6-2 550 Mhz Processor and 256 Meg of Memory but that currently runs a test version of XP . I realise that Linus is required can anybody suggest which "version" of Linux has had the best success with OpenSER as I would like to avoid as much as possible the need to interact to much with the OS so I can concentrate on the Application more. In anticipation .................thanks

Hello,
Debian is the main OS used in development, but you can use what flavor of linux you like more. As for hardware requirements, if it is a demo platform, then you will need about 40MB of memory in the default configuration. You can decrease the amount of the memory via -m parameter or recompilation of OpenSER.
The CPU is not a major requirement if you are going to run the openser with just couple of calls per second.
Cheers, Daniel
