[Serusers] Via RPORT for CANCEL message.

[Ricardo Martinez]

Hello.
My main configuration is based on the ser.cfg from the issue 5 plus some modifications included by me.  Beside that i'm using 

version: ser 0.9.3 (i386/linux)
flags: STATS: Off, USE_IPV6, USE_TCP, DISABLE_NAGLE, USE_MCAST, DNS_IP_HACK, SHM_MEM, SHM_MMAP, PKG_MALLOC, FAST_LOCK-ADAPTIVE_WAIT
ADAPTIVE_WAIT_LOOPS=1024, MAX_RECV_BUFFER_SIZE 262144, MAX_LISTEN 16, MAX_URI_SIZE 1024, BUF_SIZE 65535

I have a question regarding to sending a CANCEL message for an INVITE from a NAT'd endpoint. As far as i know the force_rport() command adds the received IP port to the top most via header in the SIP message, this enables subsequent SIP message to return to the proper port later on in a SIP transaction. My problem is that for a CANCEL message coming from a NAT'd endpoint this command seems not to be working. This is the scenario.

NAT'd endpoint : 200.100.100.248 
SER : 200.100.100.246
SER-2 : 200.100.100.36
GW : 200.100.100.69

The NAT'd endpoint send an INVITE to the proxy, but then in the middle of the transaction decide to CANCEL the request.

As you can see in the "cancel_debug.txt" file included on this mail, the CANCEL message does not contain the "rport" in the Via header, so it seems to be routed back to the default sip port (5060). Is there a way to force the rport in a CANCEL? for a enpoint unable to put the rport by itself?
I want to do this according to the onsip document, in a compatible way.. 
Anyway i made a little test including a force_rport(); in the CANCEL handler

                record_route_preset("200.100.100.246:5060;nat=yes");
        } else if (method!="REGISTER") {
                record_route();
        };

        };

        # -----------------------------------------------------------------

        if (loose_route()) {

                if (has_totag() && (method=="INVITE" || method=="ACK")) {

                        if (client_nat_test("3")||search("^Route:.*;nat=yes")){
                                setflag(6);
                                use_media_proxy();
                        };
                };

                route(1);
                break;
        };

        if (!is_uri_host_local()) {
                if (is_from_local() || allow_trusted()) {
                        route(4);
                        route(1);
                } else {
                        sl_send_reply("403", "Forbidden");
                };
                break;
        };

        if (method=="CANCEL") {
               force_rport();
                route(1);
                break;

        } else  if (method=="REGISTER") {
                route(2);
                break;
        } else if (method=="ACK") {
                route(1);
                break;
        };

        lookup("aliases");
        if (uri!=myself) {
                route(4);
                route(1);
                break;
        };

        if (!lookup("location")) {
                sl_send_reply("404", "User Not Found");
                break;
        };

        route(1);

this solve my problem but it seems not to be so accurate.
I hope that someone can help me
Thanks!
Ricardo Martinez.-
