Hi Simon,

thanks for your help
UDP is used. But I do not have any u1,t1 or tn parameters.
Btw, it is working now. I repeated all steps again. Seems I haven´t done 
this the right way the last time.

Next problem. The server is almost idling and has plenty of RAM left. 
Currently I´m using G.711. And the network is overloaded.
So, let´s try some other codecs. Before I´m going to try tcpdump and 
ethereal myself, I´d like to ask whether you have some other prerecorded 
*.pcap files with some lower codecs available? GSM would be nice. In 
general I´d like to try most of the usual codecs available.

Christian
