Aerobles, you are a star. thanks alot for the info. i will try it out. Finally am in the right Forum.

Thanks Again

Hello,
I am currently forward deployed with my regiment overseas and we have been using trixbox for almost a year. But due to constant dispute over who has to pay what bill especially for international calls, we finally resolved to experiment with a2billing:
I followed the step by step instructions provided at the link below:
http://trac.asterisk2billing.org/cgi-bi ... boxInstall ( many thanks for the script) and every thing was perfect!!!
All living in the same building and behind the router (public IP addr) where the trixbox is connected are able to register as a2billing SIP friends, make calls and see every detail at the customer interface.
Now we are trying to extend the experiment to other friends living in the barracks with very little success :
When registered as FreePBX SIP Friends , they can place calls using available trunks with no problem but when registered as A2billing SIP friends , I can see from the CLI how the caller is authenticated, call gets initiated , the called number rings and the connection drops within seconds
My question is how can you configure A2billing on a tribox with a Public IP address to enable outside calls from SIP friends?
Below are the debug lines from the CLI and any help will be grately appreciated
