It wasn't listening because it wasn't loading the sip module.

load=chan_sip.so

I'd been getting 'Registration Failed: Request Timeout' or similar
messages from the SIP clients.

Then, when I figured it out I got "WARNING[6150] chan_sip.c: Failed to
bind to 0.0.0.0:5060: Address already in use" from asterisk because I had
kphone up and kphone was holding on to port 5060. Was also getting
"WARNING[6162] chan_sip.c: sip_xmit of 0x81476e8 (len 449) to
127.0.0.1:5060 returned -1: Bad file descriptor" from asterisk.

Stopped kphone, restarted asterisk and I could connect from the phone
hooked up to the sipura unit.

asterisk   6285   asterisk   15u  IPv4 721843       UDP *:sip

Apparently the answer was 'yes' :).

cioa,
