It's comical. This is exactly the type of situation that IAX2 was designed for, and it doesn't do it very well. The very fact that I have to make modifications to the code to get IAX2 to work, but not SIP (yet), indicates IAX2 is falling far short of it's expectations. I don't see how this is complaining. I am trying to solve a problem, and given the lack of documentation out there, this is one of the few places to turn. I can't understand why it is that whenever I ask questions that are due to limitations in Asterisk, it's called complaining.

[asterisk-dev] Asterisk Usersconf
Fellow developers, At the request of many people seeking easier management of Asterisk, I've been experimenting with the idea of "users" and have a branch called "usersconf" which can be checked out from: http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/team/markster/usersconf Please take a look at it and share your comments with me on or off list as I'm trying to figure out if this is a GoodThing(tm) or barking up the wrong tree entirely. The concept basically is as follows: users.conf is effectively shorthand for creating zap, sip, iax extensions, voicemail, manager, or other entries all in one place. There is a "general" section for settings which can be overridden in non-general sections. The concept is to create a way to create things with some level of consistency, so by just adding a users.conf entry, subject to the general and enumerated settings, you get something with common secrets, names, etc. As it turns out, it's relatively little code change. In terms of processing of entries, we'll take iax for an example... First, "general" section of iax.conf is processed. Secondly, any "users.conf" entries are passed through effectively the same logic (so long as 'hasiax=yes') as other iax friends. If there are other iax.conf entries, those are then processed. If there is an iax peer, user, or friend declaration with the same name as a user, those changes are incremental over the user itself. Let me know what you all think!
