Re: [Ekiga-list] How do I connect to a different VOIP service through Ekiga

[Natasha <tashazo gmail com>]

Skype is on a different (closed , proprietary) protocol that doesnt 
allow communication with any other network/protocol (unless you pay for 
their calling to regular phones).
Ekiga runs on the sip and h323 protocols, and it is open to 
communication to anybody using those same protocols - for instance, you 
can call anybody with a sip address.
Check out the Ekiga wiki for more info:
