Hi there
As the maintainer of siproxd I may provide some useful informations ;-)
First I have to admin that the documentation of siproxd is
a) far from complete
b) not very detailed yet
c) could be better ;-)
For your enviroment the config of the linphone SIP parameters
would look like:
Your sip address: sip:rbrewer@<your_ppp_IP_address>
Server address: sip:192.168.0.1
Address of record: sip:rbrewer@<your_ppp_IP_address>
The following check boxes enabled:
- use sip registrar
- Proxy server
- Outbound Proxy
<your_ppp_IP_address> is the IP address (or host name) that you
got on the PPP link.
For siproxd, the outbound address will be <your_ppp_IP_address>.
Currently, you have two possibilities to use dynamic IP addresses
with siproxd:
a) Edit the config file each time you IP changes
I agree, this is not desirable
b) use some dynamic DNS service and then use the host name.
I personally use DynDNS (-> http://www.dyndns.org)
I may add some better support for dynamic IP addresses within
siproxd.
(has anybody some C code snipplets at hand how to fetch the IP
address of a specific interface by knowing just its name?)
Regards,
/Thomas
