asterisk users - Dec 2003 - iaxclients missing calls

Hello All
When I open up iaxcomm, it registers fine with the asterisk server.  If I
call into it, iaxcomm will ring; however if I leave iaxcomm sitting idle
for awhile (I haven't figured out exactly how long) it seems to miss
calls.  I can see the calls coming in on the asterisk server but they
never ring through on iaxcomm.  If I close it and reopen it, it takes
calls again fine.  I thought I saw someone else who had experienced this
problem too but I don't recall seeing a solution.  Any thoughts or
solutions?  I'm trying to use iaxcomm in my every daybusiness but it's
kind of
hard when I miss calls.  It complicates things a bit.  Although I used 
iaxcomm as an example here I've experienced the same problem with DIAX.
                                                                                
Thanks a bunch.

Hi, AJ.

It sounds like this is related to the other incoming ring issue.  I'll check
through the archives to verify, but I think a couple of other users were seeing
this even soon after launching iaxComm or DIAX.

I'm wondering if the iaxclient lib might be having a problem with
registration
renewal, or if it's a problem with event dispatching.

Any other users seen this yet? (That is, seen incoming ring failures become more
likely as uptime increases).

The next time you get an ignored incoming call, could you try doing an iax2
debug on the cli?

Do you see the same problem with DIAX when using IAX instead of IAX2?
