I have learned the hard way that using old configs with new firmware is asking for trouble. It is much better to keep your custom configurations in a MAC specific overrides file and replace the sip.cfg and phone1.cfg files completely. This doesn't guarantee that you won't have problems, but it's a lot easier to troubleshoot an overrides file with a dozen items in it than to sift through big, customized sip.cfg files. > Now, I have two follow-up questions: > 1) Is that normal? (my guess is no) Well, you shouldn't need to re-register every 30 seconds, either. What was the reason for configuring your phones like that? -Stephen- _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
