[Asterisk-Users] IAX Registration being lost

[Wiley Siler]

More info.

What IAX service are you trying to connect to from your * box? 

So...  Are you saying you have a DSL modem in a Smoothwall firewall that
routes between the DSL modem (eth0) and the NIC (eth1) that serves up
connectivity to your internal network?

Your configuration is getting more puzzling by the minute.

Send more data por favor...

Thanks,
Wiely

There's no DSL router, just the Smoothwall (Linux) firewall.  i.e.:

Your Firewall/Router ---> Asterisk Box

Great - homework :)  I'll have a look at this when I get home tonight.
