Are there any plans to backport this feature to 0.9.0?

Modified files: modules/nathelper nathelper.c Added files: modules/nathelper nathelper.h natping.c Log: Add support for using real SIP requests for doing natpinging instead of UDP packets with 4 zero bytes payload. This provives workaround for brain damaged NATs which close hole if no packets are being sent through it from inside, even if there are some packets going from outside.

The feature can be controlled via natping_method variable. By default old method is used, otherwise its value is taken verbatim and used as method name for generating requests. For example setting natping_method="OPTIONS" will instruct the module to use OPTIONS requests for natpinging.
