[Serusers] SER NAT'd Client & Asterisk

[Patrick Baker]

Hello all,

I have SER forwarding connections to asterisk, but I dont get sound
for NAT'd clients.  I'm using the sample nathelper config but I dont
understand where I would have to place the following.


        if (uri=~"^sip:[0-9]*@.*") {
                forward( 10.0.18.3, 5060 );
#               rewritehostport("10.0.18.3:5060");
                break;
        };

Below is my config file as current - normal forwarding works but NAT'd
clients get forwarded to asterisk but cant hear anything.

Can someone help me out?

Best regards,

Patrick
