RE: [Serusers] Windows Messenger 5.0 - sr-users

4 Dec 2003


      Windows Messenger does not subscribe at ser. ser only forwards the
subscribe request to the requested client. Kphone uses the same
technique.
Anyway, I suggest to uninstall Windows Messenger 5.0 and install 4.6 or
4.7. For further investigation: start a packet sniffer (eg.g ngrep9 and
analyze the SIP messages (and/or post it here)

I can't say it's a messenger issue.  Messenger wants a 
contact list, and to
show you who is online and offline.  Your phone doesn't do 
that.  The phone
talks to SER to see if the person is signed in.  Or does 
kphone and sipc
show users signed in?

I have made exactly the same observation. I treat it as a 
problem with 
Messenger as it works fine between two kphone UAs or between sipc and 
kphone. I'm running ser 0.8.12.

I have 0.8.1 running on Suse 9.0.  It works great with my Zultys 
phone, Polycom IP 600, and the Helmsen agent.  When I try to use 
Windows Messenger 5.0 I have a slight problem.
UserA signs in.  UserB signs in, and sees that UserA is online, and 
there changes the UserA in the contact list on ONLINE.  But UserB 
never shows as ONLINE on UserA's desktop.  So UserA can't
call UserB.
...
The update never goes to UserA's desktop.  What am I missing here?
