[OpenSIPS-Users] Forwarding REGISTER messages to Asterisk

[Simon Shaw]

I was hoping to solve this issue in a more generic manner.
Any idea how I change the IP address in the contact header?

It's easy: if you forward the REGISTER from OpenSIPS to Asterisk then when 
Asterisk calls that user it will do it directly, since of course "Contact" in 
REGISTER has the UA IP as it's logical.

This would be possible with "Path" feature (see "path" module and related 
RFC), but of course, be sure that Asterisk doesn't implement it.
