Oh heck. It really looks like realtime has been seriously screwed up.

When a call comes in to Asterisk, I can see asterisk executing these queries.
SELECT * FROM ast_sip_peers WHERE host = '2XX.YYY.142.205'
SELECT * FROM ast_sip_peers WHERE name = '2944093'
SELECT * FROM ast_sip_peers WHERE name = '2944093'

So, the first thing it does is check and see if there are any records in sip_peers where the IP address of the message matches. What happens if this user may make calls from multiple IP addresses? Will I need one entry for each IP address that calls may come from? Will this even work? Would I be so frustrated if this stuff was documented somewhere?


From the wiki:
-------------------
Asterisk matches incoming calls to the name of a device with type=user based on the From: user name (ignoring the SIP domain). The other way that incoming SIP requests are matched to [xxx] sections in this file, is to examine the IP address that the request is coming from, and look for a peer [xxx] section that has a matching Host= value. If Host=dynamic, then no match is possible until the SIP client has registered.
------------ and ---------
When Asterisk receives an incoming SIP call, the SIP Channel Module
first tries to find a [user] section matching the caller name (From: username),
then tries to find a [peer] section matching the caller's IP address.
If no matching user or peer is found, the call is sent to the context defined in the [general] section of sip.conf.
----------
(I know that doesn't entirely explain the behavior but it is a start....)

I'm guessing that the sql query immediately before your extract was a name search that came up
with nothing....
