I have to re-reload sip.conf and extensions.conf to connect with Asterisk. Looking at the logs, it seems like a registration issue. So I set minexpirty and maxexpirty that seems to have no effect. can post the logs, if someone wants me to. Your kind help is appreciated. Best regards murthy www.asteriskwin32.com hosts only a very very old version of Asterisk (1.2.something). What speaks against setting up a small virtual machine to host a recent version of Asterisk? jg You have a point. My SIP provider at the moment is Vonage which I can't access from work (some security issue:) So I am confined to testing from home and I don't have any other machine to spare. If there is no other way to trouble-shoot the problem, I will have to do what you suggest. Thanks & Regards murthy For very little $$$ you could obtain an HP thin client, load a modern version of Asterisk using AstLinux, and leave your Win 7 machine to do what it does best ( which is certainly NOT Asterisk ) Once installed, it can be completely controlled and configured remotely over your home LAN, consumes very little power, has a universal power supply, consumes little power and no noisy fans. HP5720 units can be had off eBay for $20-30 US. Even with shipping to your country, really low cost solution much more in the mainstream. AstLinux uses standard Asterisk confs. The GUI is used for management and editing, and doesn't use the difficult to troubleshoot and quirky overlays of a TrixBox or FreePBX Check out the astlinux website for more details John Novack -- Dog is my Co-pilot -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

It allows you to run the Linux environment in a virtual computer as if it was an application on windows. Then you can test the most recent release of Asterisk (version 13 at the moment). -- Scott Griepentrog Digium, Inc · Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW · Huntsville, AL 35806 · US direct/fax: +1 256 428 6239 · mobile: +1 256 580 6090 Check us out at: http://digium.com · http://asterisk.org -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Here is what I have done: a) Downloaded VM Player and Ubuntu ISO http://theholmesoffice.com/installing-ubuntu-in-vmware-player-on-windows/ b) installed Ubuntu 14 something on Windows 7 (By the way the Wubi which is supposed to download and install Ubuntu turned out to be a dud) c) installed Asterisk 11 http://blogs.digium.com/2012/11/14/how-to-install-asterisk-11-on-ubuntu-12-4-lts/ By the way, there was an undocumented problem with compiling DAHDI So I skipped that step d) ran Asterisk and everything is back where they should be However, some times I get "User Busy" response from Vonage. I think thisis an Asterisk issue. If anyone knows how to rejig Asterisk so that it won't holdon to the session after hang up, kindly let me know. Best regardsmurthy
