As I mentioned in yesterday\u2019s post, the way I believe Magicjack authenticates with their proxies is they combine your password with their proxy info to create an MD5 hash. With that hash your can authenticate with their proxies to make and receive calls. Without it, you will not be able to connect. In Windows I mentioned a tool called MJMD5 that creates this hash authentication for you. In Linux, it is a little bit different. In Linux, you have to compile the tool yourself. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 for this.<\/p>\n

<\/a> Install gcc so you can compile the source code\n>sudo apt-get install gcc<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Create a directory called mjproxy\n
>mkdir mjproxy<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Change into the newly extracted directory\n
>cd mjproxy\/<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Download the mjproxy source\n
>wget ftp:\/\/ftp.bauer-power.net\/misc\/magicjack\/mjproxy.c.tgz<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Extract it\n
>tar -xzvf mjproxy.c.tgz
<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/li>\n- Compile the source code into a program\n
>sudo gcc -o mjproxy md5.c mjproxy.c<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Give everyone full permissions\n
>sudo chmod 777 mjproxy<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Make the program file executable\n
>sudo chmod +x mjproxy<\/span><\/strong><\/em> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- Run the following to start the proxy authentication process and leave it running\n
>.\/mjproxy 0.0.0.0 5070 proxy01.<yourcity>

<\/a> <\/p>\nNow that we have our MD5 proxy running, we are ready to setup our SIP softphone! For this I used Twinkle which is available in the repositories. To get it working, do the following:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Install Twinkle\n
>sudo apt-get install twinkle<\/span><\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- After installation open Twinkle from Menu > Internet > Twinkle<\/em><\/strong> <\/li>\n
- Setup your account information with the following:
\n- \n
- Your name: Whatever you want<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- Username: Your Magicjack Username (E<YourPhoneNumber>01)<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- Domain: 127.0.0.1:5070<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- Realm: Blank<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- Authentication Name: Your Magicjack Username (E<YourPhoneNumber>01)<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- Password: Your Magicjack Password<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- AKA OP: Leave Deafault<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- AKA AMF: Leave Default<\/strong><\/span> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- Click OK and you are ready to go! <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\nNow you can make Magicjack calls from your Linux machine! Make sure you have a good USB microphone headset though. When I tried it on my laptop with the internal mic there were a lot of echoes. <\/p>\n
The cool part of this setup is that you could configure mjproxy to run as a service by adding it to init.d\u2026 Hmmmm, with that you could configure say\u2026. Asterisk<\/a> or 3CX<\/a> to authenticate with Magicjack, and share out that number with a bunch of users using extensions.<\/p>\n
\n - Username: Your Magicjack Username (E<YourPhoneNumber>01)<\/strong> <\/span><\/li>\n
- After installation open Twinkle from Menu > Internet > Twinkle<\/em><\/strong> <\/li>\n
- Create a directory called mjproxy\n
