[GnomeMeeting-list] SIP Listening fails

["JGJones (Mailing Lists)" <mailgroups bluecheetah biz>]

I am getting no SIP support with Ekiga for Ubuntu Dapper. It sometime works, sometime don't work. It seem to complain about something that is using the SIP port already

debug -1 enabled as below - at end:

It state the address is already in use. With no IM clients or Ekiga or any other SIP softphone running anywhere on the network I checked via nmap to see what would be using the 5060 port as below (it is the same even with Ekiga running)

:~$ nmap 192.168.2.2 -p 5060

Starting Nmap 3.95 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2006-03-09 15:07 GMT
Interesting ports on 192.168.2.2:
PORT     STATE  SERVICE
5060/tcp closed sip

Increasing range to 5060-5100 - same result, all ports closed - so there's nothing using those ports.

I don't know what's causing the problem or how to find out what's "using" those ports, although I do realise that I am using a distro that is still in active development

Hope you can help.

Many thanks
