Now that you mention it that bug does sound familiar. I'm the only
Sunray 2FS user in my office so I didn't really worry about it and
pursue the fix.
That's good to know though if they ever do come out with Skype for
Solaris 10, or a someone ports a decent SIP softphone to Solaris 10.

The Linux version supports Video now too. I imagine you couldn't do
video from a Sunray though unless you could somehow use an IP Camera.
I think Skype on Linux uses ALSA so there may be sound problems if
you ran the Linux version on the SRSS. I don't know for sure (For
some reason I'm thinking Sunrays use OSS for Audio, but I could be
wrong and probably am). I've never tried using it in conjuction with
a Sunray. We run our Sunrays on Solaris so not an option really.
I'm currently tasked with researching ways to allow our users to use
Skype. All of our users have a Sunray and a desk phone. I'm looking
at products like Vosky, Skip2pbx, SkyStone to get Skype to work using
our existing phones and PBX. I'm leaning more towards the Linux based
Skip2pbx solution myself.
I'm also looking at SIP trunking too. On the SIP Softphone vs Skype
Software front, I have had limited success on a Sunray. I loaded up
an Asterisk vmware image on my Mac and ran SIP Communicator from a
Sunray. I was able to get SIP Communicator to work from a Sunray,
connect to the Asterisk server, audio, etc. Well, I was able to get
my mic to work from a Sunray 1G but on a Sunray 2FS, the mic didn't
work. Could of just been the cheap mic I was using I suppose.
Or Perhaps you are hitting the CR#6596045, which was fixed in
4.0_patch -01 revision.
6596045 Audio record not working on 4.0 b48 on Sun Ray 2 family
Thanks

Note:These are my personal opinions,nothing to do with my employer
In theory though it would just be a matter of connecting the Asterisk
server to an SIP trunking provider and you'd have VoIP from a Sunray.
SIP Communicator worked pretty well, but I think it's still Alpha so
I wasn't really comfortable going that route and I wasn't able to
find other SIP Softphones that worked on Solaris 10.
Not really sure I'm comfortable using softphones either. I think it
may confuse my users more than necessary. I could be underestimating
my users though. The only real advantage I can see to softphone is if
you can click on phone number on webpage or in your address book, and
the softphone dials the number for you. Now if you didn't already
have hard phones, then price would be another advantage of
softphones. Also in a huge call center, a softphone means one less
piece of hardware you need to worry about.
Anyway that's what I know. I'd like to hear if anyone else has a
better solution though.
