[Asterisk-Users] SRV Lookups

[Douglas Garstang]

Kerry, thanks for the reply. The subject here is a bit misleading. I think I forgot to change it at some point. Ayway, I am REALLY curious how you got Realtime to allow sharing of SIP contact info.... is it a fluke of chance maybe?

	My comment was not specific to SRV lookups and more along the lines that without it Asterisk is not usable in production environments. This type of comment is a bit misleading at best. Without SRV lookups, Asterisk may not be usable in YOUR environment but that hardly devalues Asterisk as a whole. Not that it wouldnt make some things much easier (and possible) but it does not preclude every possible scenerio.
	-Kerry (sorry, having a bad day, didnt mean to be argumentative)

	Hi Kerry.
	 
	Did you see Kevin's subsequent post about using Realtime to share SIP registry info?
	 
	"Uhhh... you already quoted my previous message on that topic stating
	that it was not supported at this time. In any given situation, it may
	or may not work properly, depending on exactly what the servers and
	clients are doing.
	
	Even if the code had been written, there will still be many issues
	involved in actually implementing it, including (but not limited to) NAT
	traversal, call limit handling, registration expiration and others. It
	also mandates that there can be _no_ caching of peer/user information in
	memory, which currently means there is no 'qualify' or MWI notification
	possible."
	 
	Now, I can be a real jerk and say I told you so, or I could inquire as to just how you got it working when it isn't supposed to? This limitation is proving to be a real thorn in our side and I would just die to get it to work.
	 
	Doug.

		Dammit, I better go pull my servers out of all of my client's locations
		because their production servers have just been rendered unusable. Time to
		take their old Toshiba system out of mothballs an.....wait a sec, it didn't
		do it either, what now? I guess IP Telephony has just died today. Sad, and
		it had so much promise.
