You're correct, I forgot the host= parameter when copying my settings to
the list.  I assure you it's in my current (WORKING) configuration.

Actually, I think that was the difference between it working and not
working, if I remember correctly.  It was a late night :)

I did not include a context in my example -- fwiw, my full config
contains "context=german-sip" -- I did not think this was necessary to
get SIP working for others, and those who know asterisk enough (and many
know it better than me, being a newbie of 2 weeks) will likely have
their own context settings anyway.
