Hi Darrin, Hi Marc,

Darrin, with an OpenSIPS frontend you can do more things actually:
1) move the HA in OpenSIPS - it will be able to re-route if one of the
Asterisk boxs is down
2) do LB - you can use in parallel multiple Asterisk boxes and to
balance the traffic between
3) you can terminate TLS (from client) and convert to UDP to deliver to
Asterisk.


Marc, Darrin has a point here - if you want to give a quick try to
something, it is nice to be able to install it easily.

We already have an APT (for debian) repo up and running (still beta). We
could do the same for RPMs or, in the worst case, to generate the
packages for download.
Also, there are some RPMs (for suse) - see
http://www.opensips.org/index.php?n=Resources.Downloads


Regards,
Bogdan

our setup. We?re currently running a cluster, using Heartbeat, between two
servers. It works well but I?m interested in seeing if we can improve it. My
manager heavily uses RPM?s for installations rather than source, particularly
using yum to update. I?m trying to actually install OpenSips via that method.
Does anyone have/know of where I can find an rpm aimed at EL4? And how I can nab
libxml2, with the dependencies. I can get an RPM from for libxml2 from
ftp://xmlsoft.org/libxml2/, but the dependencies for it are causing me
headaches. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.
