Matthew:

After a long time pondering and thinking about the universe,  I had finally 
decided to get packet sniffing (wireshark) installed.  The packet snifer 
appears to have taken the problem away !!!  "No more 200 ok on Register" !!!

Must be one of those Murphy law thingys.

Cheers!
Reza.

Reza,

What about doing a packet capture for all SIP packets coming into you
Asterisk box?  Once you see the error message in your logs, stop the
capture, open it with Wireshark, and look for which endpoint send a 200
OK at the time of the error.  You could also use Wiresharks builtin voip
call analysis to break each SIP session down to see if any have really
long delays between register and the ok.

Hope that helps!
