<ul><li>check the directory in which the FGCOM is installed for the files "phonebook.txt" and "positions.txt". These are normal text-files in which you can add missing informations with a standard editor, for Windows you should use the "WordPad" (not the "Editor")). Replacing a complete "Windows" position.txt with a "Linux" one can lead to errors, although lines of both files may be exchanged/added.

    (c)2007 by H. Wirtz <wirtz@dfn.de>
    Version 1.2.2 build 223M
    Using iaxclient library Version SVN 223M
   
    AL lib: alsa.c:564: set access failed: Invalid argument
    Successfully parsed commandline options.
    Reading list of airports...done.
    Initializing IAX client as guest:xxxxxxxxxxx@fgcom.flightgear.org.uk
I.e. everything is fine, except the final
    Call 0 answered
is missing.
<ul><li>Check your network by using some other application (e.g. your file browser to look up an usually not used http-address - if you use a recently used address the answer might be out of your locally saved copies - even so the network is not connected! (e.g. use "http://mainz.de/")</li>
<li>If you use a firewall (what you should - out of general safety reasons!) make sure the ports</li>
  2005 UDP Vcp-Stream
  4569 UDP FGCom  VoIP, (Inter-Asterisk eXchange)
  5000 UDP in/out Multiplayer    (VPN Sftw.)
  16661 UDP FGCom listening to FGFS, usually “local host” only
are enabled for your PC.
</li></ul>
</li></ul>
</li><li>'''"Initializing IAX client"''' not successful: Check if you defined the right server, it must be "-Sfgcom.flightgear.org.uk”. Watch it: The “S” must be capital in Linux, but small for Windows (“-sfgcom.flightgear.org.uk”)!
</li><li>No response '''"Call 0 accepted"''': Check your network, especially your firewall for open ports.
