H323 analysis

Client possibilities

For some possible H323 (and SIP) VoIP clients you can check this list The only two that support both H323 and linux are:

• Ekiga (see ekiga section)
• SJPhone (not explored by us yet)

Ekiga

To be downloaded from the ekiga page. Unfortunately the packages OPAL and PWLIB libraries have to be installed first. This is a tedious and time comsuming process (lots of compiling needed). When we were finally done with this we tried to configure ekiga but we got the error message: Package gnome-doc-utils was not found in the pkg-config search path. We gave up since no system manager was available at this moment and decided to go on exploring the SJPhone option first.
