Thanks for shedding some lights on my problems. Now I know I shouldn't mess around with registering a child gk to more than 1 parent. As for point 2 & 3, let me clarify the kind of problems I'm experiencing. 2) If I have 2 separate GK working independently (GK1 & GK2), while some calls on GK1 need to pass onto GK2, I've placed the GK2 info into the permanent endpoints section so that it would act as a gateway to receive calls from GK1. Yet GK2 can not receive ANY signals from GK1 when this is implemented. As an experiment, I've tried registering GK2 to GK1, then everything worked! Why would a GK works when it is registered to a parent, yet it doesn't even receive and signals if it is only acting as a permanent endpoint??? 3) This is similar to point 2, yet what I'm trying to accomplish is that I have multiple 4/8 ports gateway registered onto a GK. Now I have another GK trying to call these gateways, so instead of having multiple gateway registration again, all I'm doing is assigning a prefix + IP on this GK to call the GK with all the gateways registered. (The reason I'm doing this is because I only want the first GK to handle the call distribution to all these gateways, while making this unknown to the second GK). In other words, I'd like to configure GNUGK to be in a gateway mode to accept calls as if it is a gateway. Thanks for any help/suggestions!! PS: I may be wrong, but does this have to do with unregistered endpoints or the direct IP-IP feature in 2.0.8?? Quoting Zygmuntowicz Michal <m.zygmuntowicz@xxxxxxx>: > 1.
