OK so, I've recently switched to linux and yes, I've had success with VMware and magicjack, but what I'd really like to do is keep it in linux. To that end, I've installed Twinkle, a highly rated SIP phone for linux. I'm able to fill in all the info correctly (something that eludes me in wengophone and that other one that Kumar has told me about but which I can't remember.
Anyway, all that stuff comes up properly, but then when I try to make the program register the weird dialog comes up. It shows my name, my username and IP of the server I'm trying to connect to, and then it says "login required for realm: stratus.com"
I have no idea what stratus.com is or why I would need a login for it. Perhaps I am doing something wrong? Maybe I'm getting confused as to what domain and realm mean in comparison to user domain and proxy domain as per the original softphone walkthrough. Can any of you gurus do any traces with some program or other and see if you find MJ doing anything with stratus.com?
All other input is appreciated too. Thanks everyone.

SIP uses a digest authentication scheme that is essentially the same as that for WWW; see http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2617.html . In MJ, the username is a 13-character string, usually E<phonenumber>01 . The password is usually 20 characters, consisting of digits and uppercase letters. If you have not supplied the correct user/pass, the softphone will likely query you for it. It tells you the 'realm', which is a string supplied by the server as part of the challenge. In this case, the server vendor is Stratus, so they happened to use stratus.com as the realm string.
"login required for realm: stratus.com"

Don't ask why I posted this, it just struck me as a fitting analogy.

A correct registration sequence is:
Client sends REGISTER request.
Server responds: 401 UnAuthorized, with WWW-Authenticate: header.
Client sends another REGISTER request, with Authorization: header.
Server responds: 200 OK.
Use Wireshark or tcpdump to see what's happening. If you don't see the 2nd REGISTER, you have a config problem. If the 2nd REGISTER gets a 401 response, then the user name or password is wrong (or you are connecting to the wrong proxy). Note that MJ does not use an "auth ID"; the From: field of the register must contain the same account name e.g. E212555121201 as the username field in the Authorization: header.
Are you able to register another softphone with your MJ account?

Ya know, come to think of it...I don't think so. I've tried xlite, ekiga, wengophone and twinkle on linux, and none of them work. I even tried xlite in windows and it couldn't connect either. I'll have to try it again tomorrow when I can get a LAN connection (my wireless driver in windows doesn't work atm) but the MJ itself works just fine. Frustrating...
