I am still experimenting! I have a zoiper 2.0 installed on one of my test clients. zoiper seems to work fine, so now I am attempting 
to get the freeswitch/zoiper interface working. I will also try to get an ekiga working, but first the zoiper.

First I have to figure out how to get freeswitch operational and will be working on that tonight!

Murrah Boswell
