At least on linux, linphone does not need an account.  I use it for peer
to peer sip calls using IPv6 (and Cjdns for stable IP and encryption). 
The OP was attempting to use a peer to peer connection via IP4.

Potential problems:

1) the normal IP4 syntax is sip:[email protected].  For IPv6, it is
sip:user@[2001:db8:1234:5678::90].  I've never tried leaving out the
user as the OP did (and I haven't used IPv4 in 15 years).  (Note that
the address book works just fine for storing raw ips of contacts ready
to dial.)

2) Using peer to peer IP4 is *very* problematic unless you have a public
IP.  NAT is very complex to work around for SIP.  The solutions offered
by linphone (like STUN) all involve a public server.   If you want to do
peer to peer SIP, I would give up on IP4.  You need IP6.

3) On 3.6.1, I need to turn off "guess_hostname" and set contact to my
peer to peer sip url by editing ~/.linphonerc.  Linphone tends to guess
wrong for peer to peer use.

4) Windows is very wonky on networking - it may be preventing peer to
peer operation in some way, and the operative assumption is that Windows
users do most things through centralized services.
