Ekiga(1)			 Version 2.00			      Ekiga(1)

NAME
       Ekiga - SIP and H.323 Voice over IP and Videoconferencing for UN*X

SYNOPSIS
       ekiga [-d level] [-c URL]

DESCRIPTION
       Ekiga  is  a  SIP  and  H.323 VoIP, IP Telephony and Video Conferencing
       application which complies to the SIP and H.323 protocols. It can  con‐
       nect to a variety of other SIP and H323 applications including specific
       hardware. Ekiga can work with or without a webcam, and is able to  cre‐
       ate  pure  audio	 communications	 or traditional audio+video communica‐
       tions. Ekiga  was  formerly  known  as  GnomeMeeting.  Ekiga  has  been
       designed for the GNOME desktop and therefore uses gconfd-2(1) for stor‐
       ing its userdata. It offers  to	configure  almost  every  option  from
       within  the  GUI.  Command-line options include -d to turn on debugging
       during calls.  -c to call another URL.

OPTIONS
       -d level
	      turn on debugging (on the console), level should	be  between  1
	      and 4.

       -c URL Calls  the  given URL. Ekiga can be running or not when invoking
	      that option. SIP, H.323 and CALLTO URLs are supported.

FILES
       /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/apps/ekiga/
	      The system wide configuration file. See gconf-config(1) for fur‐
	      ther details on gconf. (The actual place can differ depending on
	      your system's configuration)
       ~/.gconf/apps/ekiga
	      Per user configuration file.  See	 gconf-config(1)  for  further
	      details.

ENVIRONMENT
       On  startup Ekiga reads the system-wide gconf schemas (like every other
       GNOME2 app should do) from  /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/apps.	 Every
       modification of the gconf keys using the GUI, gconftool or gconf-editor
       is reflected in real-time by Ekiga.
