I finally got my Asterisk 1.0.7 server up and running with 2 SIP hardphones.
The fundamental problem that I had to get started was the inconsistencies in the documentation that is available.
Anyway, I noticed that there are some commands that don’t seem to be working at all.
For example:
“sip show registry” displays nothing
Is this my problem only? Other people having it?
TIA,

Should it show anything? Is your asterisk server registered with any SIP services?
What about sip show peers ? Does that show what it’s supposed to?
I’ve never had a problem with sip show registry not working in 1.0.7 - or any other command (although i haven’t used the release version of 1.0.7 for a few months now).

Are you saying that “sip show registry” is used to keep track of the places where I am registered as a client? I am not registered as a client with anyone. My two SIP phones are registered into Asterisk as a SIP server.
On the other question, “sip show peers” works perfectly.
What version are you running?

Yeah. In that case, i wouldn’t expect sip show registry to show anything. My BudgeTone doesn’t come up, only the three sip services i’m registered with.
I’m running 1.2-beta1 CVS. The above behaviour was the same with 1.0.7.

It would be very nice if the developers added these commands:
sip show client registry
and
sip show server registry

Maybe, but it’s not really necessary as sip show peers and sip show registry do what you want. I guess it’s just the terminology you don’t like!
But when you consider that “expiry” is spelt “expirey” in sip.conf, you can’t really hold out much hope for better terminology!

I just discovered the best command to see who’s registered and who’s not, with pertinent details:
database show
