asterisk users - Mar 2003 - kphone registration failures

I wonder what I'm doing wrong here, trying to use kphone with asterisk.

I have the following entry in sip.conf:

[kphone]
type=friend
username=brianc
secret=mysecret
host=192.168.1.4
context=home

When I go to the "Identity Tab" in kphone, and ask it to register with
my asterisk server, I see the following on my asterisk console:

NOTICE[114696]: File chan_sip.c, Line 3643 (handle_request): 
Registration from '"Brian Capouch"
<sip:brianc@192.168.1.4>' failed for
'192.168.1.4'

I then get a dialog box from kphone, where I type in the secret shown above.

I then get another NOTICE on the console, exactly the same, and then the 
dialog box in kphone pops up again.

Infinitely.

Any help that might be out there would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

how about s/[kphone]/[brianc] or conversely s/brianc/kphone

i vaguely remember a requirement for the username and [entry] to be the 
same in sip.conf, but that may have changed, try it out

Be sure you are using the "asterisk" realm.

How does one "use" a given "realm?"

Thx.
