Re SST:  Yep, everything you said is true.  I was using SST to verify the 
endpoints were still alive.  At the same time, i wanted to kill the call at 
some specified point regardless if both endpoints were still there.  For 
instance, I want to limit all calls to 15 minutes but at the same time check 
every 45 seconds to insure the endpoints are still on the network.  With the 
addition of the dialog ping I think this problem is solved.  I also can't think 
of a valid reason to want SST module at the proxy outside of this.  I guess the 
answer to your question is "I don't need it - not sure what I was thinking".  :
