YaST does not install Ekiga by default, even with the GNOME install pattern. Nonetheless,
it??™s easy to install via YaST. The first time you run Ekiga, the setup wizard walks you
through all the information needed to make phone calls with your computer.
CHAPTER 9 Being Productive: Office Suites and Other Tools 178
In the first screen, Ekiga asks your name for purposes of the phone directory. In the next
screen, you are asked to set up your acccount at Ekiga.net. A browser window opens,
where you deliver a minimal amount of personal information, define a username (which
is also added to the directory as
@ekiga.net), and a password to access the
network. You??™ll be sent a confirmation email at the address you specify. Once you have
set up your account, enter your username and password and move to the next screen.
Here, Ekiga checks for a network router and firewall, and discovers whether the router
uses a Network Address Translator (NAT) for security purposes. In the likely event this is
true, the wizard will ask you to enable STUN support.
