Dave,

Have you tried connecting to
	h323:192.168.1.34
(or IP as appropriate)?  It works for me both on a LAN and over a wan
with 3.0.[12] and 3.1.0.  Regrettably, I have other show-stopper
problems, but that's another thread.

Patrick, you say you have other SIP clients, but will the h323: thing
work for you in your ekiga-to-ekiga work?
