With authentication on? Great...

so the new SUBSCRIBE is authenticated??? great move! Else partysip
would continue to answer 401/407

What is the request-uri of the subscribe?

If I understood correctly: it works well in this situation, but it doesn't
work properly if the windows proxy is not running?

This is expected as partysip can only forward SUBSCRIBE and will do so
in the case where the request-uri contains an ip or fqdn which is not
his domain (those values comes from "serverip" and "servername" in
partysip.conf). In the case where the request-uri matches the domain,
the SUBSCRIBE will be forwarded if the username is known else he will
answer 404 Not Found.

I think this is the behavior expected of partysip-0.4.4...
