Jan,
Thank you for the response.
The longer I use the SER proxy server, the more uses I find for it.
What I am currently envisioning is this:
I run a PBX PROXY server for a specific business customer. This customer has a private naming (numbering) plan. The names of the UA devices are 101, 102, 103, etc.. These are 'extension numbers'.
I would like to be able to make the PBX 'pretend' it is the phone. It will send a REGISTER to the GATEWAY, and then subsequent INVITES for that number will be sent to the PBX. The PBX will determine how to deliver the call using local rules on the SER proxy. The rules will be something like:
business days between 9am and 5pm forward all incoming calls to x100.
If extension 100 is busy (or doesn't answer), roll to extension 101.
If extension 101 is busy (or doesn't answer), roll to voice mail.
And a million other things.
I realize that I can forward the call from the GATEWAY to the PBX, but, I think it would be MUCH cleaner if I could tell the SER PBX engine to REGISTER a number....
Make sense?

Greg,
it would be possible with some shell script magic. It is possible to send a REGISTER message using the fifo interface.
Before we dig into into it, let me ask what is the reason for doing something like that ? Can't you simply forward the SIP messages from GATEWAY to PBX and if PBX is off or crashed then the GATEWAY will send "Request timeout" to the PSTN (instead of 404) ? Or am I missing something ?

Hello,
I have a SER server, it has 2 phones registered to it. The phones are 300000 and 300100. The registration works fine, and I can place calls between them. I am calling this my 'PBX'.
I have another SER server that can connect to a PSTN. I can register my phone number with it, and I can make and receive calls from the PSTN. Let's say that phone number is 2145551212@addaline.com. I'm calling this my 'GATEWAY'.
OK, here is the tricky part. I would like to make the SER 'PBX' *REGISTER* 2145551212@addaline.com with the SER GATEWAY ... just like it is a UA. So an incoming call to 2145551212 would get delivered to the SER PBX, and I'll figure out which extension gets the call with local rules. For very simplistic delivery at the PBX I can alias 2145551212 as 300000.
If the PBX crashes, or is turned off, the 2145551212 registration will eventually evaporate.
Anyway, I can't figure out anyway to get SERPBX to register with SER GATEWAY.
Is this possible?
