I was wondering if any of the sunray-users community were using VoIP using SIP clients running on the Sun Ray server?

If so, could you share your experiences?

Thanks

Hello,

it's not really the case you mention, as we tried software SIP client with USB phone (or headset) but it was too much hassle to come by. (We didn't even try as the design appeared complicated ans missing some apps)

Finaly, we built the following solution:

we put a hardware phone next to the each DTUs and we have a script which active the phone with the correct number when you login and deactivate the phone when you logout or lock the screen (explicit lock, a timeout lock will not trigger the removal script) (smart card removal).

It works very well and this provide complete transparent phone solution. And also, nearly all phones accept internal dialing even if the attached DTU is not logged, which is really cool. (imagine, you get into your office, smart card into your pocket, you wanna tell the guy in the next building that you wanna go out dinner, just pick up the phone, no need to get into software SIP client)

We also added phone-from-dtu (ok, I just invented that name), which allows you to dial your hardware phone from your DTU. It's just a shell script called dial <number> wich will do all the job. We created a gnome applet to interface with this script.

Regards
