How to make SIP calls?

1. Choose the correct network interface in Edit->Preferences->Network
Settings->Listen On.
Also setup IP translation or (!) STUN if needed. If you don't know what
to do with these settings leave them as they are for now.

2. Set up your accounts on Edit->Accounts.
Click on Add and enter your account data.
You can freely choose an account name.
Protocol should be SIP.
Registrar is your SIP server ( example: sip.qsc.de ).
In the most cases Relam is the same as your SIP server ( in my case it
was qsc.de and not sip.qsc.de ).
User name and password represent your login data.

3. Now click OK.

4. Check the A-Checkbox just left of the account name in the account
list. This makes gnomemeeting register automatically when it is started.

5. Click OK.

Now quit gnomemeeting and start it with LC_ALL=C gnomemeeting -d4 in the
console.
This gives you debug information, so that you ( and we ) can spot
possible problems.

Jan Schiefer!
