[OpenSIPS-Users] Record-Route and Dialog topology_hiding()

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Ben,

Sorry to disagree, but IMHO they do exclude one eachother.

Adding RR to TH should not be seen as a way of fixing some broken TH 
scenarios (with advertise).
So,let me try to understand what is not working for you.You do TH and 
advertise. In this case, normally, in the Contact headers generated by 
OpenSIPS (as a result of TH), it should be the TH interface, right ? 
What exactly seems to be the problem ? do you have a trace to show the 
issues ?
