Re: DefaultDomain

Hi Jan,

I can confirm the SRV doesn't work properly based on my tests some weeks ago.
Here is my observation:
If you have name.com SRV to gnugk server and A to another IP (let's
say your company's website), and when a SRV dialing comes into gnugk,
gnugk will resolve the name.com using A and then pass the call to your
web server IP, which will fail of course. The only way to work around
this is to define DefaultDomain to be your name.com, then gnugk will
be able to deliver the call locally. Of course, this trick won't work
if you have multiple domains, since DefaultDomain only supports one
value.
