Re: [Ekiga-list] registration failure

[Andreas Freiherr <Andreas Freiherr web de>]

Damien,

I even checked with the firewall completely disabled. Same problem: once I cannot register, restarting Ekiga with either setting at the firewall does not help. It seems to depend on the phase of the moon.

Learning how to write reliable programs would also be a big step forward ;-)

Seriously: problems very similar to mine have been reported by multiple Ekiga users already, and it I have seen multiple authors complaining about difficulties when debugging Ekiga (where did the "general history" go?). So maybe it isn't just me...

Part of the delay is for being busy, another big part was contributed by the fact that we seem to be aiming at a moving target here: for a while, it seemed like I could hide the problem by using port forwarding instead of port triggering, but then, it came back. Later, it appeared to work even with port triggering, and today, it failed again. I am afraid the results are generally not repeatable.
