Hello. In my homeoffice I am the only person who need to receive video phone calls from colleagues in uptown office. My home office network is behind a single NAT firewall (DSL router), so I guess setting up port-fowarding on the router to forward the a few ports needed by ekiga, and tell my colleague to call me using sip:123.116.115.109 is the easiest setup. IP address doesn't change, thus usually my colleague should reach me. I hope by doing so I could avoid the complicated setup of STUN and ekiga account and so like, which troubled me for a few days and left me clueless.
My problem: I found when ekiga starts, it listens on sip connection from local host. $ netstat -ul | head -n8 激活Internet连接 (仅服务器) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State udp 0 0 *:domain *:* udp 0 0 *:41017 *:* udp 0 0 *:828 *:* udp 0 0 *:39614 *:* udp 0 0 *:bootps *:* udp 0 0 localhost:sip *:* I believe this setup won't let my colleague reach me through sip protocol, the expected behavior is that it should listen to *:sip instead of localhost:sip, at least with my knowledge on TCP. I am also confused why sip is not listened on TCP and if it is necessary at all. Question is is there a way to change ekige to let it listen on *:sip. Thanks in advance! _______________________________________________ ekiga-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/ekiga-list
