Can you check with "ngcp-kamctl proxy ul show --brief" whether the 
contact is there? Since registrations need to be present in the kamailio 
cache, the ngcp backend doesn't write such contacts directly into the 
db, but initiates an xmlrpc call to kamailio, which in turn syncs it 
into the db.

Also, did you change anything in regards to local ip addresses? Are the 
ips and ports where kamailio and other services are running on the same 
as in the provisioning.xmlhosts table?
