The current target is often places not connected to the internet, but supported by mesh.
It seemed easy to enable AUTH. (just adding #!define WITH_AUTH) to the conf file seemed to do the job. Kamailio also has a supported web interface system (siremis) that allows for user registration. Speaking of which, has anyone tried H.323? Thoughts on that?
