[asterisk-users] secret=pw in sip.conf affecting inter-asterisk sip call

[Lee, John (Sydney)]

authentication in the dial string itself;

Thanks Kevin.  This is what I reckon from the tests that I did.  
I think I will have to remove all secret= from all my SIP entries.

However, this is contrary to what the Asterisk books say.

P.S.  I have got problem receiving emails from asterisk-user mailing
list.
I could only see it from the web mail archive.
