USE SKYPE ON YOUR OBI: A HOW-TO GUIDE
cdelite:
Update: the problem I reported yesterday went away after I rebooted by computer. So I still have no idea what caused the problem originally. Possibly it was because I was already running Java for something completely unrelated when I started playing with SipToSis.
I got outgoing calls (Obi -> Skype) working fine using Obi speed dials, and will probably test incoming calls over the weekend. One thing I hope to accomplish is to allow specific incoming Skype callers to access the Obi attendant so they can call landlines and mobiles via Google Voice.
If this all works, I am also toying with the idea of pulling an ancient XP laptop out of my junk drawer and putting it to work as a dedicated 24/7 SipToSis server. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

I got your idea to work with the following.
In SkypeToSipAuth.props:
*,sip:[skypecallerid]@192.168.1.150:5061
192.168.1.150:5061 is the IP address and port# of your OBi.
Change your OBi Voice Services -> SP2 Service -> X_inboundCallRoute to:
{skypests>skype1|skype2:aa},{ph}
skype1 and skype2 are the Skype usernames you want sent to the AA.

I just called Obi support. The tech advised me to post a question in the forum with regards to the following instructions: "NOTE: replace “192.168.1.150” with your OBIHAI's IP address which you can find by dialing *** and then "1" from the phone connected to the Obi. Use either “:5060” if you are setting up SP1, or “:5061” if you are setting up SP2. Normally you will use the latter. If you're setting up SP3 or SP4 you'll have to research which port number to use. Replace “YourSkypeUserID” with your actual Skype username." Tech says I need to configure Skype thru ObiTalk and not the local webpage, as he says is indicated here by this IP address, or it will mess up the whole Obi account that I have set up. Also, I don't know what "use either ":5060"...or "5061" means. Where do those numbers go?

I have a Skype number. This being the case is there another (easier) way to set up Skype on my OBi200?

So, I need a computer on for this to work?
