Re: [Ekiga-list] automatic reconnecting



Not a helpful message but just... I agree with you Mark. This seems a interesting but missing feature for Ekiga. A wish for next version.

To take a comparison with another program (not VoIP but), gaim is able to reconnect to the network either manually or automatically if the connection is lost whatever is the protocol/account.

Best,
Laurent

Hi,

There are a few things that seem odd to me in ekiga 2.0.5 with respect
to SIP server connections:

-If ekiga starts before the network is up, it appears not to keep trying
to reconnect.
-There isn't any obvious way to connect, disconnect, or reconnect except
starting and stopping ekiga
-It appears that the number of "registered accounts" shown does not drop
to zero when the connection is lost.

This is especially a nuisance in a situation like this:

-KDE network manager is used to select a network, so there is no reason
to think that the network is already connected once KDE starts
-KDE starts ekiga automatically
-Ekiga starts hidden. When hidden, the user has no way of seeing that
ekiga is not connected.

Is there something I'm missing or is this an issue for a change request?

Mark
