Hi Jaap,

I'm sorry i didn't give the whole picture. The call is first converted 
from H323 to SIP, then back to H323. I'm tracing the H323 messages after 
the conversion from SIP, and the flags are set the same as in the 
original H323 setup message. For example, if i have the flags set as 
"International/ISDN" in the original Q.931 header, after the conversion 
to SIP and back to H323, these flags do not change. Let me clarify that 
this is exactly the way i want it to behave, i'm just curious as to 
why/how it does this. Another point of interest is the topology. The 
call enters an endpoint (the h323 part). That endpoint talks via SIP 
with an MSC controller (which handles the routing/billing procedures), 
and that MSC controller talks with the terminating endpoint (via SIP), 
which in turn sends the call to its destination by H323. Something like 
this:
caller - h323 - endpointA - sip - MSC - sip - endpointB - h323 - destination


Thanks
Michalis
