[Partysip-dev] Disabling DNS resolution in partysip

[Simone Leggio]

Hi Jack and all,

a couple of questions. I am using partysip 2.1.2 on linux in an 
environment where DNS is not available, and I need therefore to disable 
DNS resolution as it unavoidably fails.

When I REGISTER user  A with partysip, I always send its IP address 
(dotted decimal) in the "contact" header field. The server seems not to 
care about this contact IP address and when user B invites user A the 
INVITE cannot be forwarded because DNS resolution fails.


1) Can I make the server use the IP address provided by A in the 
registration instead of calling DNS resolution functions when an INVITE 
is sent?

2) If this is not possible (please, tell me why) would it be sensible to 
build my own plugin that fills the bindings (I mean, SIP user name + IP 
address in the "contact" header) in some cache or db, and when an INVITE 
is received retrieves the IP address matching that user name from the 
cache, bypassing the current DNS resolution partysip plugins? How can I 
disable them, in this case?

Hope I remembered all, I'll came back to the list if new things come 
into my mind.
Thanks in advance,
