[Freeswitch-users] Registering with digest authentication, but empty password. How?

[Steven Ayre]

Botnets that scan the net looking for insecure VoIP servers are extremely
common. You'll probably get one trying the door once every couple of days.

Given that, allowing access to your server with an insecure password is an
*extremely* bad idea.

If they want to digest auth, then they should be using a proper password.
