[Serusers] ser not sending ACK back to MGW

Hello, Apologies if this has come up before, but I'm having some problems with SER not forwarding an ACK back to a Cisco AS5300 media gateway. This means that incoming calls break down because the 5300 hasn't received an ACK from the SIP phone. Outgoing calls are fine, because SER is forwarding the 5300's ACK back to the SIP phone correctly. Would anyone know why this is only working in one direction? With incoming calls, the sequence of events is: 1. I dial the PSTN number on my SIP phone. 2. The SIP phone sends the INVITE to SER. 3. SER rewrites the host and forwards it to the Media Gateway (MGW) 4. The MGW brings up an ISDN channel and connects the call 5. When the call is answered, the MGW sends back the 200/OK to SER 6. SER forwards the 200/OK on to the SIP phone and I can converse on the call 7. The SIP phone sends the ACK back to SER, but SER doesn't send it on to the MGW. 8. The MGW waits 19 secs before disconnecting the call because it hasn't received an ACK. In the reverse direction everything works fine, because SER sends on the ACK it receives from the AS5300. My configuration is appended below. Running IOS 12.3(9) on the 5300, the SIP phone is a Siemens Optipoint 400. SER version is 0.8.10 on Fedora Core 3.
