I think that's right, but I don't recall ever trying.  I know that their
echo test has no video, so that's probably an indication that their
regular calls don't have video either.

Re: [Ekiga-list] No common codec (G711 aLaw)

[Damien Sandras]

Hi,

I get a no common codec error when I try to make a phone call, using 
my phonzo.com account. Phonzo supports G711 a-law or G729, according 
to their configuration help page: 
http://www.phonzo.no/privat/utstyr/eget_utstyr/


I have enabled PCMA, PCMU and Speex (wide band) in the Ekiga 
Preferences-Audio-Codecs dialog.


The Ekiga -d 4 output is attached.

Does anyone know what might cause the error?

The Ekiga version is 3.2.7.



You probably need to disable video.

behind two nat routers and how do you do it?

STUN does not work in this situation - because the STUN is too smart for
its own good (or maybe the S stands for Stupid).  You would think a
broker for a STUN-like protocol would simply pass on the public IP and
ports seen by the broker - but maybe I'm missing something.

You cannot use ekiga.net, because it requires STUN, and also barfs on
private IPs in the SIP trace headers (which I understand is an RFC
violation - it is supposed to ignore them).  Port forwarding on both
routers would work with normal STUN, but fails for ekiga.net because of
the 2nd problem.

I have 2 routers at home to isolate the WAP from the home LAN.  However,
I turn off "network detection" (STUN), and use Ekiga just fine with
aptela.com, and diamondcard.us (ekiga callout).  These service do not
require STUN.

I connect to family and friends by running openvpn - and ekiga works
fine over a VPN.  This also solves the lack of SRTP support in ekiga.
(Your contact has to be connected to your VPN also.)

I think that the ultimate solution is getting (you and your contacts) on
IP6.  Then all the NAT problems go away.

Thanks for all the good information. Are there any plans to address 
the problems with ekiga.net?



The problem is that if we do not check for private IP addresses, users 
will be able to call eachother, but RTP trafic will not go through.


That means users will complain of "no audio" problems...

Is that preferable ?

It seems that icons are really down to the gtk icon theme? I have been

Yes.  I use gnome-icon-theme package, what is the name of this

it provides some icons.  I have to add it as dependency, but I do not

It's the same name in Slackware. I think it needs specifying in
gtkrc-2.0. It doesn't seem to pick up on it if no icon theme is set
manually.

I'm slightly at a loss there.



You can simply disable all of them but one, and see if it still works.

The main user interface should also show you what codec is in use. I 
would suggest trying H.264,

Maybe, but ?

Our PABX (Alcatel-Lucent OXE) are networked, and everyone has its own 
realm/domain

some have SIP licences, some not.
If I don't enter a realm/domain, i can't register



It should be guessed automatically, whatever the realm/domain is, as

 I do see other messages like 'sip:usern...@ekiga.net' subscribing to 
presence of 'sip:0018555095253', but this is understandable since 855 
is a toll free number.


sip:001818xxx is not the number of an 855 or 877 number 
(presumably used by ekiga or diamondcard as a utility to route calls), 
but an 818 number of a friend in California.


There are no other instances of this kind of thing on the log file. So 
that is a little disturbing.




That is not a problem, that is because it is in your roster. The server 
will reject it.


3.  The main problem that I have had with ekiga (besides not being 
able to get through to the 518 area code) is that callers on the other 
end sometimes complain of an echo. When I do the echotest callback in 
Ekiga, I sound fine. And generally, I hear other people very clearly 
on my end. But several people have complained of a distracting echo on 
the other end.


Are you using a headset ? With a good quality headset, it should work.

Not sure why though. But your IT admin should know why.

Perhaps you should try disabling all video codecs to see what happens. 
But the hint is there :

Looking on google, I found this:

And I wonder if it does not happen just because you are calling from an 
IP range the CISCO rejects.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Bug prevents VPN use

[Damien Sandras]

  
  
What Ekiga is supposed to do, is to
  send one message per interface with the interface IP address as
  source. If your routing is well configured, then only one of the
  various SIP messages should reach the remote user.
  
  Please note that Ekiga 3.3.2 is an old development release which
  is not intended for public use...
  
  Le 29/09/13 10:45, cookedbr...@hushmail.com a écrit :

I
want to use Ekiga without a central server by manually entering
IP addresses to connect directly to others. This works fine on a
LAN. But on VPN it doesn't work because of a bug, and this bug
actually exists with the LAN but it's not noticed. I am using
Ekiga version 3.3.2-0ubuntu3 on Ubuntu 12.04.

What happens is that when userA sends a message out to userB,
Ekiga attempts to sends communications out to ALL Internet
interfaces that userA is connected to. I discovered this from
the firewall log. As an example of what's happening in my
situation, say that userA has a LAN address of 192.168.1.1 but
is also on a VPN with a VPN address of 10.8.0.6. When Ekiga is
used to send a direct message to userB who is on the LAN with an
address of 192.168.1.2 (sip:userB@192.168.1.2), Ekiga sends this
signal out from userA on both 192.168.1.2 and 10.8.0.6. So in
the ufw firewall log of userA you will see something like this:

OUT=eth0 SRC="" DST=192.168.1.2
OUT=eth0 SRC="" DST=192.168.1.2

Notice that the second one says "eth0" even though it's using
the tun() interface. That's part of the bug. When this is over
the LAN it's not a problem. But when trying to do it over a VPN
it is a problem. So now let's say userB is far away in another
building, but connected to the same VPN as userA. userB has a
VPN address of 10.8.0.10. This time userA sends a message to
userB using the VPN address. userA will enter
"sip:userB@10.8.0.10" into Ekiga. userA can actually send
messages to userB and userB will see them. However, userB cannot
send any messages back to userA. The firewall logs show why this
is. Here is what the firewall log for userA will look like when
sending the message out:

OUT=tun0 SRC="" DST=10.8.0.10
OUT=tun0 SRC="" DST=10.8.0.10

Notice that the first one is tun0 but using the LAN as source.
That's part of the bug. But it's able to send messages over the
VPN to userB at 10.8.0.10. But when userB tries to send messages
back, it tries to send them to the LAN address of userA. Here is
what the firewall log will look like for userB when trying to
send communications to userA. userB has a LAN address of
172.16.0.1 with a VPN address of 10.8.0.10 and is communicating
to userA with "sip:userA@10.8.0.6". Here is what the firewall
log of userB looks like:

OUT=tun0 SRC="" DST=192.168.1.1
OUT=tun0 SRC="" DST=192.168.1.1

Ekiga for userB is trying to send signals to the LAN address of
userA, which is why userB cannot send signals back to userA over
VPN. But userB shouldn't be able to see the LAN address of
userA. I'm guessing Ekiga is sending this. And again notice that
it's saying both interfaces are tun() when the first one is
eth().

The correct thing to do, which all other programs do correctly
over VPN, is for Ekiga to only use the tun() interface for
sending signals out. If you connect to more interfaces, such
more VPNs, it will do this for each one.

When this is fixed, it will be a nice, easy way of using VOIP to
communicate with anyone through VPN. The most difficult part is
setting up VPN, which is pretty straightforward if following
step-by-step the server guide for Ubuntu 12.04. Ekiga using
direct connect over LAN is easy, so fixing this bug will make
Ekiga into a nice skype alternative for people who are capable
of setting up a VPN using OpenVPN.

(I also want to restrict all ekiga traffic to one specific

A short explanation will be appreciated.



Not specifically required. The standard says nothing about multiple
interfaces handling.
It is just a question of routing after that point. You can see this
as a kind of fork of SIP requests.
If you have two routes to the same destination, through 2 different
interfaces, it should work too, but both routes have to work both
ways : ie, if you can send a SIP PDU, you should be able to receive
incoming requests and responses through that route too.

  Thanks for explanation, Damien!

A question still remains for me: why is this done the way it is?
If I e.g telnet some.ip.add.ress then routing rule apply and all
traffic will go over the vpn interface (tun0 or such). 



When you are using telnet, there is an active TCP connection between
both peers.
When you are using Ekiga, you are working connectionless, ie through
UDP. That means that userB can not use the same connection to reply
back to you. All it can do is send a SIP message to a destination IP
and port.

If user B has two local interfaces (eth0: 192.x and tun: 10.x), when
EkigaB will send a SIP message to userA, it will send it twice
(because it can not determine how routing will work, that's the
kernel responsibility) :
- one SIP message to userA through tun0 with tun0 source IP address
to userA IP and port
- one SIP message to userA through eth0 with eth0 source IP address
to user IP and port

One of them should work.

Your mail suggests that both messages are sent using the same
interface but with different source IP and ports. That's weird.

The best would be that you post a -d4 output somewhere (not on the
mailing list) of userB trying to reach userA so that we can
determine what Ekiga is doing.

  How does Ekiga assure that the packet is actually sent out eth0
  with eth0 source IP? By default routing and source address
  selection are completely decoupled and if default route is to
  tun0, then all packets regardless of source address will go out
  tun0. One has to put policy routing in place to avoid this and
  assure that eth0 IP packets actually go out eth0 (and then you
  have to have the concept of multiple default routes that might
  change over time that needs to influence the policy routing
  settings).
  
  

You are right... If Ekiga is listening on IP-A and IP-B, then it
will send one SIP packet per IP. Exact routing conditions, including
interface selection, are determined by the routing configuration.

One of the objectives is to drop old
  STUN by default and have the ekiga.net platform handle the NAT
  part (Far End NAT traversal). If eventually it requires a proxy
  for the audio and video streams, then we will setup one, and see
  what it asks in terms of bandwidth. If it requires too much
  bandwidth, we could open up a special type of Ekiga.net account
  with that kind of service. I don't know yet.

softphone and for the Ekiga.net platform.

You can expect a 5.0 release before spring. That
will be the first step.

Re: [Ekiga-list] help needed to configure ekiga

Hi,
  
  Where did you get Ekiga from ?
  That's abnormal...
  Perhaps you could put a -d4 output somewhere.

Hi
  All,
  
  
  I tried to run ekiga last year and had no positive results. I did
  see an updated ekiga (now ver 4) and I installed it right away. I
  already had a sip address from my previous try at running ekiga.
  
  
  But, ekiga won't recognize that account. I obtained a second
  account today, but ekiga won't recognize that account either. I
  did receive the email from ekiga.net confirming that the new
  account had been activated.
  
  
  Right now, the only think the program does is say 'processing...'
  when I look at the account information. I've tried a bunch of
  different things, and nothing works-I get the same error.
  
  
  What do I need to do to make ekiga work???
  
  
  TIA.

The Ekiga.net account does not register because you are behind a
NAT. See http://wiki.ekiga.org for troubleshooting. NAT is a complex
matter and it is not well handled by Ekiga currently :(

The second account does not register because your
username/authentication username/password combination is wrong.

At the time of writing, csipsimple continues to fail. This error was
not occurring last month.

Other sip account providers are not showing this error on the mobile

Nothing changed on our side I would guess there is a NAT issue
(see our wiki).

Hi,

  Hi all,

I just wanted to drop a message to the list, reporting that I
had installed and tested ekiga successfully.  I
do not know why the original installation (asus mobo desktop
running xubuntu 13.10) put out a single line -d 4 file though
and why it refused to allow my registration.

I needed a new ubuntu installation anyway, so I installed ubuntu
in another partition (this time in xubuntu 12.04). Within 2
minutes of downloading ekiga, I had it running without errors on
the new partition. I also installed it in my Dell laptop (Dell
15 Inspiron, xubuntu 12.04), and it fired up and ran without
difficulty. I didn't do anything different, and the reason why
the first install attempt failed is a mystery.

I've stopped using skype now, which gives me great joy. Thanks
to all who made technical suggestions via this list.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Which call settings make calls the most stable?

[Damien Sandras]

  
  
Having Ekiga crashing is certainly not
  normal, whatever codec you are choosing.
  
  I would use iLBC and H.264. It runs pretty well for me, without
  crash, for thousands of calls...
  
  Le 15/02/14 18:09, Mark Carroll a écrit :


  Thanks to Eugen we now have calling mostly working, except that there
are stability problems that seem very dependent on which codecs are
chosen, especially video codec. For instance, theora often freezes and
H264 lasts for maybe a minute before the call hangs up. I can even
completely crash Ekiga by choosing the wrong codec, e.g., the gdb trace
at http://pastebin.com/3EYDBJRQ -- seeing as that exception arises from
libavcodec.so.53 I wondered if it would work to try libavcodec.so.55
instead or if that would not be compatible with opal 3.10.10.

More generally, I wondered, for calling among Linux amd64 Ekiga 4.0.1
ADSL users, which settings do people find to actually given reliably
stable video calling? For instance, while I find that video codec
matters a lot, I am not finding that things like picture size make much
difference. Some clues to find settings that not only work, but work
well, would be most welcome.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Window-size settings and picture-in-picture

[Damien Sandras]

  
  
Le 18/03/14 00:31, Dennis New a écrit :


  In fullscreen mode, there is no way to move the picture-in-picture to a
different corner, or to disable it, so it will always cut off the
bottom-left corner.



This is currently not possible.

  
Also, I think the call window should respect the user's geometry
settings, and allow for more scaling options than simply 1x and 2x. In
many cases, 2x is still to small for me. Also, if my video settings
have a different size than the negotiated size settings of a call, the
window size will bounce between the two sizes when pausing/resuming and
disorganize my desktop. Both of these issues could be solved if all
videos simply scaled to whatever size window the user prefers.



However, this is already implemented as a new feature in our master
branch.

Why not? :p If it's possible to overlay a picture-in-picture, wouldn't
it be possible not to? :p The changing of it's placement doesn't have
to occur in real-time -- additional settings to control it's location
(and size) would also be satisfactory.


I didn't mean it is impossible to do. It is simply not implemented
yet :)

Feel free to propose a patch on master if you have the time to. If
not, you can  report it as a suggestion on bugzilla.gnome.org so

My guess would be that it links to a different libavcodec
library than the one whose headers were used to compile things.

  
  
  I've just recompiled both Opal and Ekiga and get the same error.
  
  
  There's no way that it's compiled against a different version. Is
  
  there a recommended ffmpeg version to use?
  
  
  Currently, I have version 2.1.4.
  
  
  Have you seen this?: 
http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2012-April/123454.html
  
  
  I will have to patch Opal by the look of it.
  
  


If the compilation succeeded, that means that avcodec_init was
present in your headers.
If it fails at runtime, that means that the library you are linking
to does not contain that method.

=> your headers and libraries are different, believe me

  My guess would be that it links to a different libavcodec

  one whose headers were used to compile things.
  


I've just recompiled both Opal and Ekiga and get the same
error.


There's no way that it's compiled against a different
version. Is

there a recommended ffmpeg version to use?


Currently, I have version 2.1.4.


Have you seen this?:

http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2012-April/123454.html


I will have to patch Opal by the look of it.


  
  
  If the compilation succeeded, that means that avcodec_init was
  present in your
  
  headers.
  
  If it fails at runtime, that means that the library you are
  linking to does not
  
  contain that method.
  
  
  => your headers and libraries are different, believe me
  


Perhaps you have ffmpeg/libav installed from your distribution,
and you also installed it manually?  During compilation, one of
them is used, and during execution the other gets used.

  
  
  Slackware doesn't have ffmpeg in it's stock repo. But like I said
  I
  
  rebuilt both Opal and Ekiga from what I had installed, and there
  is
  
  only one version installed.
  


Impossible !
What does :
grep avcodec_init /usr/ -r
return ?

Re: [Ekiga-list] Prack issue

[Damien Sandras]

Can you post a debug output somewhere ?

I think it should not follow the Contact field but instead follow 
in-dialog requests routing. In that case, record-routing might impose 
the request to go through the SIP proxy if I'm not wrong.


More generally speaking, if BYE requests are correctly routed, I see no 
reason why PRACK requests would not be correctly routed...


Le 02/05/14 11:44, Rubén Gracia a écrit :

Hello Ekiga team,
In Ekiga1-Ekiga2 SIP calls (using a registrar server between them), 
the 180 Ringing message coming from Ekiga2 (to Ekiga1) contains 
"Require: 100rel", so a PRACK message is sent from Ekiga1 (to Ekiga2 
going through the registrar server)
Problem is that Ekiga1 send the PRACK message to the registrar server 
with the R-URI IP of the registrar server instead of the Ekiga2 ip 
(that is defined in the "contact" field (inside the 180 Ringing 
message)), so the message can not be delivered properly to Ekiga 2

Is it possible to solve this wrong behaviour?

If you enable echo cancellation in the prefs, there is also noise

Yes, all of this works correctly. Unfortunately, it is still impossible
to choose where the PIP frame has to be displayed.

I am not sure if I will have the time to reimplement it. Changing the UI
was an enormous job (I am busy on this since more than 1 year - spare
time only), and we still have to add new SIP features, then improve
Ekiga.net...

Re: [Ekiga-list] nf_conntrack_sip and ekiga

[Damien Sandras]

Actually, it should magically work without doing anything. You do not
even need distinct destination ports: Linux implements symmetric NAT,
where the public IP/Port will be dynamically allocated depending on the
internal IP:port and the external IP:port. As long as the internal IP is
different, you do not need to ensure different internal ports.

If it does not magically work (with STUN disabled), then there are still
bugs...

I have never tried it myself.

My suspicion would be that too many audio codecs are enabled and you
reach the MTU once the authentication information
has been added : the packet never reaches ekiga.net.

Can you try removing some codecs ?

[Ekiga-list] About Ekiga.net

[Damien Sandras]

Hi everyone,


Ekiga.net has been running since 2006 when there were no free SIP
providers. Maintaining the platform is much work for our small team.
Some features have been missing for years without anyone having the time
to implement them.

Should we keep the platform or try to find a partnership with someone to
move it to another platform?

Who is using Ekiga.net? 

Through the years there have been nearly 1 million subscribers.

Ah well, if each of them had donated 1 € ;)

I found several possibilities. I also saw that the Kamailio developers
were offering a free SIP platform with advanced features.

Hard to say, what I would really like is finally have NAT traversal
handled by Ekiga.net, to make it work in all cases.

The big problem is that maintaining both the platform and the software
takes much time. I am spending nearly the entire WE on this.

The top 3 missing features are:
- Server-side NAT handling
- Be able to delete his account
- Have a better account recovery procedure

Currently, the password is sent in clear text (which is inadmissible)...

Re: [Ekiga-list] About Ekiga.net

[Damien Sandras]

Hello Tony,

Thank you for the e-mail.

Ekiga is the software. It is based on the SIP protocol, and as such, is
compatible with other SIP software : client-side and server-side.
Ekiga.net is the platform. It is where you register a free SIP address
that you can exchange with friends and family to get in touch.

Of course, you do not need Ekiga.net to use Ekiga. Some people use Ekiga
with their own PBX system, with Polycom videoconferencing software, or
with other SIP providers.

But if you do not use them and need to ekiga to talk to relatives, the
easiest is to get a SIP address from there.

I think we need help with maintaining the WEB look&feel of the various
sites (outside of coding skills to maintain the software and the
platform).

Re: [Ekiga-list] STUN server "stun.ekiga.net" replies Blocked, external IP 127.0.0.1

stun.ekiga.net is an alias to stun.voipbuster.com

Perhaps they are down ?

If that's the case, I can change the alias to stun.sipgate.de

We used to have our own STUN server, but that's not the case anymore...

It should subscribe automatically. What release are you using?

Unfortunately, I am not aware of a module supporting this in Kamailio or 
OpenSIPS. There is the msilo module, but it is limited to "MESSAGE" SIP 
requests while Ekiga will move to the more modern MSRP.


Unfortunately again, I do not think that Ekiga 5.0 will be a big improvement in 
that area. We are severely lacking manpower. And while we will support more 
codecs, a revamped UI using modern libraries, other features like server-side 
contacts lists, im history and so on will not be implemented now.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Security Check Failed

[Damien Sandras]

Hi,
Your provider is buggy. Actually, Ekiga is able to handle several
accounts at the same time.To do so, it relies on the "realm". The
"realm" is supposed to be unique: both worldwide (not two providers can
have the same realm), and from the point of view of the provider (you
should have one and only one realm corresponding to the provider SIP
"domain").
You can see in the REGISTER response:SIP/2.0 401 UnauthorizedCSeq: 1
REGISTERWWW-Authenticate: Digest realm="sip.blueface.com",
nonce="WEqHgFhKhlQ42SeHns8yNIV4kvU7BP6j"
And in the INVITE response:SIP/2.0 401 UnauthorizedCSeq: 1 INVITEWWW-
Authenticate: Digest algorithm=MD5, realm="sip.blueface.ie",
nonce="16ed6ca7"
The realm is changing, just like if you had 2 different providers.
Tell them to read the SIP RFCs.

Re: [Ekiga-list] Call recording?

[Damien Sandras]

Hi,
Unfortunately, Ekiga does not allow call recording.You will have to use
software like Asterisk or Freeswitch for that.
Recording soundcard input/output might be the easiest way. I never
tried, but you can find some interesting links on the Web:https://askub

Re: [Ekiga-list] error sending a message

Hi,
I suppose that Linphone and Ekiga do not support the same protocol for

If you send the Bad Request message from a tcpdump or a -d4 output, we

Indeed. Ekiga 5 is ready since 2 years except for the IM part. However,
releasing it requires several hours of polishing, writing a new manual,
updating the website, the ekiga.net platform, and so on. 

I do not have the time anymore to dedicate all my evenings and all my
week-ends to free software development.

It makes me more sad than you can ever imagine, but currently, there is
noone developing on Ekiga itself.

I will probably try in a few weeks/months to finish what I can in the
release because I use Ekiga 5 daily and it works well enough.

[Ekiga-list] Ekiga.net discontinued

[Damien Sandras]

Hi all,

Due to the lack of time, and to the last outages, I have taken the
decision to discontinue EKIGA.NET before the end of the year.

Thank you for your support during all those years.

It has been a pleasure!

Re: [Ekiga-list] Ekiga.net discontinued

[Damien Sandras]

Hi Bret,
Thank you for your email and support.
You are absolutely right...
Actually, Ekiga, the software, is not discontinued. Ekiga.net, the SIP
platform that goes with it, will be shutting down by the end of the
year.
However, actually, the state of the software is not better. I have
actively maintained ekiga during more or less 12 to 13 years. A new
version is nearly ready (without instant messaging support anymore, and
without STUN/NAT support). A few years ago, I asked for help to finish
it. It was a call to developers, but nobody answered.
Having to maintain the software, the SIP platform, the websites, the
manuals, the documentation for that new release alone is simply not
possible. It would be if I was unemployed. But in that case, the "free"
as "free beer" aspect of Open Source would be annoying for me :-)
So well, if developers want to keep working on the Ekiga software, they
are welcome. The code is in GNOME's git, available for everyone!
