[Freeswitch-users] effective_caller_id_name in user directory not being passed to SIP endpoint

[Gavin Hamill]

Brian,

Yes you're right - I started from almost zero config so  auth-calls was not
set in the sofia profile. I solved the issue yesterday by using set_user
based on the Caller ID (i.e. trusting the incoming Caller ID for the
'default' context' - accessible by internal port 5060 calls only).

It turns out that whilst I already had this in vars.xml:

  <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="set" data="internal_auth_calls=true"/>

I didn't provide the matching line in sip_profiles/internal.xml:

        <param name="auth-calls" value="$${internal_auth_calls}"/>

I have now added that line to the sip profile, removed the 'set_user' from
the dialplan, and authentication is working just as it should.  Many thanks
for taking the time to point me in the right direction - it's really
appreciated!

Cheers,
Gavin.
