But it seems the proxy closes the TLS connexion right after forwarding the REGISTER, and doesn't receive the 401 message. The TLS handshake is OK, and the client certificate is required (I didn't add the verification part yet). The REGISTER message goes through TLS, and is received by the authentication server. Then, the proxy sends a TLS alert (Close-notify), and after that message, the authentication server sends back the 401, and the proxy ignores that message.

This patch fixed my problem. Now the proxy receives and retransmits the 401. Thank you very much!

Best regards,
