[Turnserver-users] INSTALL and SETUP on OpenSUSE

[Markus F. <li...@ma...>]

Hallå allihopa,



I have a little problem setting up the server.

I am right no doing my master thesis. Major topics cover STUN,TURN and ICE. By

creating an own test bed now, I wanted to give your nice turnserver development

a try. I am using Opensuse 11 as my server platform. I was able to build and

install the server so far. Is there any further difference building it as

"debug-build" than just the ouput? Sorry if I place quite some beginners

questions, but that's what I am right now.

Another thing is, when I try to connect with my application, e.g. a recent

PJSUA build (pjsip.org), I get first some DNS resolve issues, which are finally

solved by looking up the server address. I don't think that is related to your

turn  implementation. it should be PJSUA internal, because it tries to find some

_turn_udp DNS address, which I can't provide. Then it resolves to the "ordinary"

address. When now allocating resources for the STUN/TURN, I get an "Unauhtoized"

error message prompted. Okay, I thought maybe some issue with password, realm,

etc, so I looked all up again, double checked it. No difference for the outpute.

Note: I tried both, just the simple default setting untouched and later on my

own config via "turnusers.txt".

Another thing is, that I am not really sure about how to use your test clients?

client, server, peer is a little confusing naming for me though. My "guess" was,

you mean "caller== client, callee==server and peer==turn-relay". Totally wrong,

or did I get it? :)

I tried instead the pjturn-client software in their PJNATH suite. This one

couldn't setup the appropriate STUN bindings. It looked like that, although I

have to acknowledge, I am absolute unfamiliar with this piece of code, so I

might not be to good in interpreting it.

I had also a little the impression, when I used the debug-build , ehm by the

way, i am using the latest svn files, that the turnusers.txt had no impact? But

it was found regarding the output.

one more not, the debian.init isn't to good for the Opensuse approach, although

I try to use it. It works, when eliminating the "--background -m" statements.



Here are my descriptions of my config files:



##

# TurnServer configuration file.

#



## public IPv4 address of any relayed address (if not set, no relay for IPv4)

listen_address = "nat.xyz.com."



## listening IPv6 address

## public IPv6 address of any relayed address (if not set, no relay for IPv6)

listen_addressv6 = "::1"



## UDP listening port.

udp_port = 6956



## TCP listening port.

tcp_port = 6958



## TLS support.

tls = false



## Daemon mode.

daemon = true



## Max client.

max_client = 10



## Max relay per client.

max_relay_per_client = 2



## Allocation lifetime.

allocation_lifetime = 1800



## Certification Authority file.

ca_file = "./ca.crt"



## Server certificate  file.

cert_file = "./server.crt"



## Private key file.

private_key_file = "./server.key"



## Account method.

account_method = "file"



## Account file (fi account_method = file).

account_file = "/etc/turnserver/turnusers.txt"



######### and the turnusers file ######################

turnnat:pwxyz:nat.xyz.com



######### opensuse init-script ########################



the original script, word by word placed in init folder as

"/etc/init.d/turnserver"

Pointing to the config files in folder "/etc/turnserver/" to "turn...cfg/txt"

deleted just the "--background" and "-m" commands, as my terminal told me

daemon-start-stop did not know them.

So, finally, if you miss real questions above :



What is wrong with my setup?

Is there something hard coded, I have to change?

What build is the right to get it running?

How to start the server, is my changed init script okay?



At last, what you do is great work, and it comes just in time for my work ;)

...

Maybe later on, when I understand much more of the material, i am even able to

put something into the project to aide you folks, but now it's me who needs your

help.

Thanks for all efforts in advance!



Hälsningar / best regards,



Markus
