asterisk users - Nov 2005 - SIP Forward

Hi guys,

I'm trying to forward a call from one * server to another using SIP.

Everything works when I use fromuser in the sip entry of the *  
forwarding the call. The problem is that when the receiving * sends  
the call to the UA, it puts the caller to be the value of fromuser  
instead of the caller-id (as documented).

If I remove the fromuser, then the calls are denied because of "wrong  
password on authentication for INVITE to '"{calleridnum} ...'.  
Meaning, it's trying to authenticate the call based on caller-id  
instead of the peer name.

How can I set it up to authenticate without necessarily using fromuser?

Thanks,
Waldo

I apologize for the resend. I haven't received much feedback from this.

I also noticed that what I'm getting is the caller id as the caller  
name and the sip peer name as the caller id number.

Does anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

Thanks,
Waldo
