I added the new name since 100% of asterisk configs out there totally misunderstood this field and did not understand the relation to defaultip. I think we should take the next step and separate the two functions carefully. That will break a lot of configurations unfortunately. We also have to add a policy of NEVER ever using one specific config name and value for multiple functions. That's just asking for this kind of problems. Like "insecure" and "nat" and... In trainings it fun though. People get very confused and need more hours, which is good from a consultant point of view, but not good for users. ;-) /O -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-dev mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
