Thanks guys, thought SER had to 'register' to be able to use any Asterisk contexts. But just defining a new entry in the sip.conf with just context & ip worked!
But now i'm stumbling on another problem.. Asterisk seems to want to send the SIP udp packets directly to the SIP clients. In the case of a SIP user/client behind a NAT, this obviously doesn't work. SER is configured to use the wonderful RTPProxy + SER nathelper module, and this works flawlessly (using the rewritehostport function). But when I try to call a phone number on the PSTN network from a SIP client behind NAT, SER sends the invites to Asterisk, and Asterisk makes an outbound call to the phone number, the phone rings, but when the pstn user picks up the phone, no sound, and after a while (couple of seconds), the call is dropped. Asterisk spews out the following warning, chan_sip.c:471 retrans_pkt: Maximum retries exceeded on call [EMAIL PROTECTED] for seqno 29898 (Response) Tried searching on the voip-info wiki and mailinglists, but didn't find a way to force Asterisk to use a SIP proxy/SER. Any ideas ?
