Yes, that is exactly the issue with stock VoIP clients. It is quite difficult (impossible?) to get Jitsi, CSip or Linphone to send the RTP stream over TCP. Perhaps it is also our server (Kamalaio) or media proxy configuration... something to dig into. Skype on other hand seems (or seemed to) magically just try all possible means of busting through the firewall/iptables rules like oil spilling out of sinking tanker, and so the TCP only route over Tor was fine for it. BTW, it also seems Google Hangouts+ uses TCP, or can use TCP when routed over Tor. +n -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
