asterisk users - Jul 2011 - realm question

Hi all,

Trying to find where i got wrong in my config....

Is the "realm" parameter in sip.conf only used for possible
autentication?

The thing is, i got my box more-or-less working as i wanted,
but i can only reach internal functions (like echo-test and so on) and
other sip-clients if i dial "1234 at fqdn", while i was expected to be
able
to just dial "1234"

I presume i have either a mismatch between how the softphones register,
and my asterisk conf.

Kind regards, Hans

The problem you are reporting is not related to realm but can be context or
domain.

Tnx,
It was indeed a domain issue.
In some cases static definitions in /etc/hosts is not a good replacement
for DNS...
