[asterisk-users] Problem configuring Asterisk as client for ekiga.net -- NAT problem

[obitori junk]

I tried both "disallow all /// allow ulaw" and "allow all".  Neither
worked.  Ekiga.net is not accepting asterisk as a client.  I keep
getting the "600 not acceptable error".  What seems odd to me is that
the NAT column shows an "n" for both ekiga.net and jnctn.net, but I have
"nat=yes" for both.  Thanks for the suggestion...I'm still open to
ideas.

Regards,

Bud Roth

sip.conf contains:  "allow all"
