Re: [on-asterisk] Confused about Sendmail and FreePBX
Henry, I'd agree with the smart host suggestion, as long as your ISP doesn't require a username and password on their email gateway (like Rogers). If they do it simply based upon your source IP, that should work. I can offer the quick way to get rid of messages waiting to be sent. - first shutdown sendmail. On most systems you can do this as root by: cd /etc/init.d sh ./sendmail stop - clear out the mqueue directory where the active but undelivered email files hide out cd /var/spool/mqueue pwd (this tells you what directory you're in - make very, very, very sure it is mqueue) ls (have a look at the files - they should be files with d's, q's, and c's followed by numbers - I'm going a bit by memory here). (think over what you've seen, and be very cautious about issuing the next command) rm * (as root, an rm * can do severe damage to the system if you issue it in the wrong directory, be careful) - restart sendmail cd /etc/init.d sh ./sendmail start If your problem is large mail spool files that are delivered locally, the mail is stored in files in /var/mail (which is aliased to /var/spool/mail): cd /var/mail ls -l (you'll see a few files in a typical system - root and asterisk probably. If they're particularly large, you can throw away the mail by doing) root asterisk (this will permanently throw away all the mail in these mailboxes). Not elegant, but if you need to fix things in a hurry, this will do it. As always on a Linux/Unix system as root, be very careful what you're doing. Hope that helps.

Re: [on-asterisk] Confused about Sendmail and FreePBX
Henry, Sendmail is a bit of a bear when it comes to configuring. If your up to the task you need to configure it to use either SASL or TLS but it's not easy. This will allow you to us either port 465 (SSL) or 567 (TLS) which are ports that are not blocked for sending email, but require that you use one of the two authentication methods. The easier rote like was previously suggested would be to use your ISP's smtp to handle the relay. Now in regards to the 22000 emails, if you really want to delete them all, login to your server, then cd /var/spool/mail, then ls -l will show you the email files for the users on the system. Your probably going to have just two accounts, root asterisk, if you sudo rm root you will delete them. Now if you get your smtp outbound corrected, you can also make the emails for these accounts get automatically forwarded to a real account so they don't build up. Alter the file /etc/aliases by adding asterisk: root root: aster...@voip-pbx.ca Then save the file and recompile the database issuing: newaliases now email sent to those accounts should relay to the destination email account Mike Henry L.Coleman wrote: I suspect that many of the TAUG members have had trouble getting sendmail to work from their * boxes and now I am one of them.

RE: [on-asterisk] Confused about Sendmail and FreePBX
Henry: Seeing as the 22,000 messages are waiting to be sent (assuming they haven't bounced yet) they will be in /var/spool/mqueue or /var/spool/client-mqueue If they have already bounced you will likely find them in /var/spool/mail like Mike suggested or perhaps in /var/mail The other option is to get an ISP that doesn't block your port 25 (cough cough) :) Bill From: Mike Ashton [mailto:mike.ash...@qualitytrack.com] Sent: Monday, February 09, 2009 10:53 AM To: asterisk@uc.org Subject: Re: [on-asterisk] Confused about Sendmail and FreePBX Henry, Sendmail is a bit of a bear when it comes to configuring.

Re: [on-asterisk] Solid state HD

Re: [on-asterisk] Solid state HD
Ive build many a system with CF cards, they are very reliable(BSD based). Just don't write to them! cf's will easily outlive anyone in a ro state. There are some tips and tricks though you need to be aware of when using ssd's (linux has some additional tweaks needed over *BSD) In short though without writing a really lengthy email, You'll want to optimize a base image of your desired os to be read only, things like /var should be mounted as memory disks. This will give your CF card (or other ssd) an indefinite mtb (75+ years if your not writing to it). If you really want to bolster its performance on small hardware create an operating system that runs entirley in ram (loaded from a ro ssd on boot). A really good example of well put together os/asterisk distribution is askoiza. (http://www.askozia.com/) Id recommend anyone interested in os/file layouts for ssd's do a quick play about with the embedded version.

When a call is made and the remote party hangs up, the Audiocodes hangs up the call immediately. But if a call is received and the remote party hangs up, the Audiocodes does not hang up immediately. Anyone experienced this issue with Audiocodes or any other gateway in general? Any tips? -- Nabeel Jafferali X2 Networks Nabeel, I know this doesn't address the root cause of your issue but based on the informed posts of some other members, it looks like you might need a workaround. One idea is to post process the file with sox. I remember doing this in the past but I can't remember why, I don't think it was voicemail. I looked at the man page and it seems that some combination of the 'silence' and maybe the 'reverse' options might do what you need. I'm not aware of a channel variable that exposes the name of the last recorded message file (like with record()) but I think you could use externnotify in voicemail.conf. I'm not a linux whiz but it might be worth running that with the 'nice' command to prevent analysis of a 5 minute message from causing a resource blip that would affect voice quality. Good luck, Dave - To unsubscribe, e-mail: asterisk-unsubscr...@uc.org For additional commands, e-mail: asterisk-h...@uc.org
