Hi Shelby, thanks for the reply on the IP Address Question.
I do not have a $FS_DIR/conf/sofia_profiles/ directory ? $FS_DIR/conf/vars.xml has a line :- <X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="set" data="bind_server_ip=auto"/> I'd guess that this means that the Server uses the machines IP address automatically, so, I can change the IP address to fixed and don't need to make any changes at the Server end - just need to update the Clients. regards Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shelby Ramsey" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, October 31, 2009 6:13 PM Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] New FreeSwitch User - WAPSERVER Question > Dave, > > You should check out the settings in $FS_DIR/conf/sofia_profiles/ and > $FS_DIR/conf/vars.xml.
