Re: [Partysip-dev] SIP Client

[Vishal Jain]

Well, here is the exact scenario that I am trying to achieve. I am using
MSN messenger in Communication Service mode as it uses SIP protocol. There are
2 users that exist in say "chat.com" domain. Both login to partysip with
username and password that I specify in configuration file as

user    address@hidden  uuser1  puser1
user    address@hidden  uuser2  puser2

Login for both is successful. Now these users add each other as contact. Once
the contacts are added, SUBSCRIBE message flow from each client to partysip.
First SUBSCRIBE messege is rejected saying "Proxy Authentication Required". So
they send request again with their IP address, port number, user id and other
stuff. Partysip reply 404 NOT FOUND. These users are currently logged it and
if somehow I manage to send the INVITE message, it goes via proxy as expected.
But the SUBSCRIBE requests result in NOT FOUND even though that user is live!
I think there are some issues with MSN messenger as well.

I created one more domain say "chat.xp.com" where I run the SIP server provided
by Microsoft on Windows XP. Say I have user address@hidden and I add it as
a contact list of address@hidden the SUBSCRIBE message is properly directed by
Partysip to "chat.xp.com" machine and I did see this user live, as Microsoft
SIP Proxy replies with 200 Message. I can even send them message, but it is a
whole other story, as messages are not proxied via Partysip. MSN messenger
clients themselves have brains to directly connect to other client. They use
Partysip server for just SUBSCRIBE messages and for address resolution of
contacts.

My main requirement is to use MSN messenger, as we just need IM and not the
phone or multimedia content.
