Registering to several gatekeepers at the same time is not possible with
H.323.

If you configure your gatekeeper to accept calls from unregistered
users, it will act as a gateway.

If your gatekeeper is on host rankin.net, and that Chris is registered
to it, and that the gatekeeper accepts incoming calls from unregistered
people then anybody can reach you using h323:chris rankin net

Those URLs are storable in the address book, not in ILS though. Future
versions (probably not 1.2) will allow users to specify their URLs when
registering. We also plan to provide a public gatekeeper, but I lack the
time to develop the registration system.
