Daniel,

Thanks for the clarification. Since mi_xmlrpc is equivalent to mi_fifo, I could use this module

to send MESSAGE and INVITE from a remote server.

mi_xmlrpc depends on specific versions of libxmlrpc client, on some distros it cannot be found. Also, it has some weaks in security (you have to use the firewall, there is no interaction from config file).

You can run any mi command via rpc interface (e.g., sercmd or xmlrpc) if you load the mi_rpc modulem then use mi* RPC command:

http://www.kamailio.org/docs/docbooks/3.2.x/rpc_list/rpc_list.html#rpc_exports.mi_rpc

For example, running same mi command as done by 'kamctl fifo ds_list' is via sercmd: 'sercmd mi ds_list'.

For instant messaging, you can use directly the rpc command tm.t_uac_start or tm.t_uac_wait. If you connect using sercmd, you can use 'help cmd' to read a bit about each rpc command.

Cheers,
Daniel

It is rather difficult to properly craft SIP messages in a single line
(to properly pass all parameters).
Therefore, the xhttp_rpc module does not support this kind of functionality.
Asynchronous commands are not implemented by the xhttp_rpc module:

It is better to use the xmlrpc module for this kind of functionality.
http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/stable/modules/xmlrpc.html

just to add a bit and make clear that xmlrpc module is different that mi_xmlrpc. Practically xmlrpc uses internally the same mechanism as xhttp, so no dependencies on http libs. You need libxml2, but since you deal with presence, you should have it.
