It uses the same licensing scheme as the G.729 licenses (so as soon as 
you need to upgrade the machine, or set up LACP or VPN or any other type 
of virtual interface or in the case of G.729 you change the codec to a 
newer version {since you've upgraded to a new version of asterisk that 
doesn't support older ones} that doesn't support the old name for the 
codec, you need to re-register).

Or as in your case, it doesn't like the names of the network interfaces.

It's all a total PITA.

Fwiw, the Skype channel driver stopped working on my machine a while 
ago. I never did track down the cause.

When res_skypeforasterisk starts, 39 res_skypeforasterisk processes 
start and 1 skypewatcher service starts.

If I start it manually after asterisk has started, usually asterisk 
segfaults, (not always).

Although Sometimes it starts up properly but can't log anyone in, Either 
the user is stated as Logged Out or Connection Error, usually if I type 
skype show users I get the following error message:
