SIP is domain based like HTTP (Web), SMTP (E-Mail) and Jabber (IM/presence). You need the phones to register with the same domain that the sofia profile is configured to use. The most painless way to do this is: 1) setup DNS for A and/or SRV for SIP to point at your box eg: sip.my.com 2) set the domain variable in the conf/vars.xml to this domain -<X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="set" data="domain=$${local_ip_v4}"/> +<X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="set" data="domain=sip.my.com"/> 3) When you configure the phone/soft phone, use sip.my.com as the domain you are registering to so for ext 1000 you become sip:1000@sip.my.com. Now you have a fully qualified unique sip url and all your phones can chat etc. Anthony Minessale II FreeSWITCH http://www.freeswitch.org/ ClueCon http://www.cluecon.com/ AIM: anthm MSN:anthony_minessale@hotmail.com GTALK/JABBER/PAYPAL:anthony.minessale@gmail.com IRC: irc.freenode.net #freeswitch FreeSWITCH Developer Conference sip:888@conference.freeswitch.org iax:guest@conference.freeswitch.org/888 googletalk:conf+888@conference.freeswitch.org pstn:213-799-1400 ----- Original Message ---- From: Alois Komenda <alois.komenda@esk.fraunhofer.de> To: freeswitch-dev@lists.freeswitch.org Sent: Tuesday, December 4, 2007 8:47:34 AM Subject: [Freeswitch-dev] Update: Problem with sending Instant Messages Yesterday, 12-03-2007, I wrote: Hello, sending IM (SIP MESSAGE) from one user to another through Freeswitch does not work for me. I have traced the problem to this point now: the call of switch_core_hash_find() in sofia_glue_find_profile__() returns NULL. Finally "Invalid Profile <IP of Freeswitch>" is diplayed on the console (among other data about the message). What is the problem here? After a small change to sofia_presence_chat_send(), sending messages worked. The parameter given to sofia_glue_find_profile() was the variable host which contains an IP address. I changed it to the hardcoded value "default". Now sofia_glue_find_profile() returns a valid profile and messages can be sent. What is the correct way to choose the profile name for an IM?
