[Ekiga-list] automatic reconnecting
Hi, There are a few things that seem odd to me in ekiga 2.0.5 with respect to SIP server connections: -If ekiga starts before the network is up, it appears not to keep trying to reconnect. -There isn't any obvious way to connect, disconnect, or reconnect except starting and stopping ekiga -It appears that the number of registered accounts shown does not drop to zero when the connection is lost. This is especially a nuisance in a situation like this: -KDE network manager is used to select a network, so there is no reason to think that the network is already connected once KDE starts -KDE starts ekiga automatically -Ekiga starts hidden. When hidden, the user has no way of seeing that ekiga is not connected. Is there something I'm missing or is this an issue for a change request?

Re: [Ekiga-list] automatic reconnecting
Not a helpful message but just... I agree with you Mark. This seems a interesting but missing feature for Ekiga. A wish for next version. To take a comparison with another program (not VoIP but), gaim is able to reconnect to the network either manually or automatically if the connection is lost whatever is the protocol/account.
