Hi ael,

thanks for your quick reply. My problem seems to be different though, i can 
initiate and receive calls through the GUI (I think I have not taken one, but 
at least it rings). My problem is rather the opposite, in linphone 3 I could 
initiate a call in a linphone instance from the command line (no matter if 
there was a running linphone instance or not before). In linphone 4 I do at 
least not know how that works.

Rainer
