Sure, to make calls a user maybe needs to authenticate (digest and so).
To receive calls the user needs to register to say the registrar server where 
it is. In this register process probably the user needs too to authenticate.

Note that "authenticate" != "register".

This is a common confusion, but a little reading of RFC 3261 would make it 
clear ;)

Just check if the user is registered (function "is_user_registered" or 
similar) before allow the call.
