But when I use these in the account druid in Ekiga, I just get the message "Registration failed: Registration failed" in the status bar, and "Registered accounts: 0" in the dialog.  No other explanation what's wrong.

I tried to just take a newer ekiga rpm but it wanted to pull in several dependencies so I played safe.  And I haven't tried altering the NAT/STUN configuration because I really don't understand what they are and can't find a simple explanation.  I don't think my firewall settings are particularly severe, just the default router settings and normal security level in Mandriva.  What should I look for?

Send us the complete -d 4 output (see the wiki).  Sometimes there is an 
error code (606), but afterwards it works or gives another meaningful error.
