[Serusers] serctl - serweb

[Gould, Aaron]

i downloaded a couple xxx.gz.tar files and opened them up.  what are the .cfg files used for?  like what is the "hello-world.5.0.cfg" supposed to be used for?

thanks samuel
 
good, then i'm not going to mess with setting up apache for serweb if i can do all that is neeed from serctl.
 
you probably don't get what i'm saying because i don't get what i'm saying.  ;)  get it?  :)
 
i'm still learning about sip.  ...and trying to set it up as i go.  i'll take your advice and read the getting started docs at www.onsip.org <http://www.onsip.org> 
 
i think what kicked off the 70 hop decrement to 0 (zero) was the dns entry i made for _sip._udp.lab.com  and put in that entry the host of the ser box as the host providing the service.  was this wrong?  i might have the cart before the horse in some of this madness.  i'm still trying to put the puzzle peices together and understand how it all works.
 
now that i've removed the _sip._udp.lab.com dns entry , i know get from the sre box a response from the UA softphone register message i i now get from the ser box a 478 error Unresolvable destination

No.
serweb is a web interface for the user management.
serctl is the tools itself to manage users.

You can do everything via command line with serctl

I don't really get what you are trying to accomplish here...

What
#serctl add
does is to add user's profile to your system so they can later use the
profile data to register their phones into your system.

Probably your config file is wrong. I recommend to go to www.onsip.org
and read the getting started document that includes a detailled
description of several configurations.
Probably, the Too Many Hops comes from a paquet being forwarded to
yourself (to the same SER) until the hop count decresases too low.
