Check with Mark.  Also, note that there's no guarantee that some kernel

disallow it in some future version.

 I agree that it would be good to have Asterisk running with another

If you're that concerned about it, why not use the NSA kernel with ACLs?
It would probably be even better served if you worked to secure the
entire execution environment (e.g. chroot, ACLs, etc.) instead of just
changing the uid.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Let's TALK ABOUT IT!!!

2003-10-07 Thread John Todd
  It is that type of mechanism that enum uses and yes it was to solve a
 similar goal, but in this case you need a 'route server' type system - in
 particular as this is for IP routing of PSTN end points not on an IP
 network.
A discussion about this came up a while ago.  I suggested something along
the lines of BGP, where each endpoint announces prefixes of what they
can get to.  You'll need a central machine that everyone peers up with and
then you can use a switch = statement or exten = _.,1,Dial in * to query
that machine and get the best route for your call.  If you make sure that
your destination machines are not behind NAT or a firewall, you can do an
IAX handoff to get the connection set peer to peer instead of through the
central server.
Example:

4 remote * machines, each configured with our BGP software.

Machine 1 announces that it can terminate calls to country code 1 with a
cost of .02.
Machine 2 announces that it can terminate calls to 1 with a cost of .05.
Machine 3 announces that it can terminate calls to 1-830 with a cost of 0.
Machine 4 announces that it can terminate calls to 1-830-751 with a cost
of 0.
You place a call to 1-830-751-2000 and the system determines that it can
place that call for a cost of 0 to machine 4.
You place a call to 1-240-988-4000 and the system determines that it can
place that call via either machine 1 or 2, but lowest cost is machine 1.
[general summary to all branches of this thread]

Yes, that describes TRIP (RFC3219 - 
http://www.zvon.org/tmRFC/RFC3219/Output/index.html) fairly 
accurately.  While not having quite a central machine with which 
everyone peers, it may be that each ITAD (Internet Telephony 
Administrative Domain, like an ASN) would have one main router to 
which all their local Asterisk servers would be leafs, and then that 
core router would peer with other core routers at other ITADs or 
maybe some large IRR-like servers which were clearinghouse-only style 
route distributors.

I offered money here on this list previously to anyone who thinks 
that they're qualified to develop and integrate a TRIP implementation 
into Asterisk.  Warning: it's not a trivial issue, and I will only 
consider programmers with a full understanding of the magnitude of 
the task.  This could threaten to be a surprisingly large mesh with 
possibly hundreds of thousands or millions of routes of an extremely 
dynamic nature, and such an implementation is not for the beginner. 
I'm still taking applications.

In other notes: I saw in other parts of this thread the discussion 
about how to do number routing via DNS.  This is a good idea, so 
good, in fact, that it already exists in Asterisk and is a set of 
RFCs.  It's called ENUM, and it routes phone numbers via the DNS. 
See enum.conf and show application EnumLookup - the good folks at 
nic.at were kind enough to pay for and work on these improvements to 
Asterisk.

ENUM is great, but it's going slowly as far as the hyper adoption 
rates of Internet time are any comparison.  The main issues seem to 
be political, since the triple whammy of ownership, 
authorization, and administration seem to be in the way.  If you 
are in a country that hates VoIP, don't expect to see above-board 
ENUM any time in the near future.  :-(

BUT: The nice thing about ENUM, especially in Asterisk (and hopefully 
soon in SER) is that one can specify cascading trees in which to 
look up data that are not necessarily e164.arpa. as the root.  I will 
leave it to the reader to figure out why this is a good thing and a 
bad thing at the same time.

ENUM and TRIP provide DIFFERENT functions: ENUM gives out exact 
answers, and TRIP provides gateway answers.  First, you look up the 
number in ENUM.  Is there an answer?  If so, send call to that 
SIP/H323/IAX gateway.  If no answer, then look up the number in TRIP 
and find someone who has a cheap/good/fast/whatever gateway to that 
particular number range, and send the call to that SIP/H323/IAX/etc. 
gateway.

In fact, I had a really nasty thought the other day: make a DNS 
resolver hack that allows ENUM lookups to incorporate TRIP replies. 
Yuck, yuck, yuck... but it would allow TRIP integration into any 
system that supports ENUM with no additional work on the telephony 
client side.

2003-10-07 Thread Marcel Prisi
If you write code in C/C++, you'd better use sqlrelay :

http://sqlrelay.sourceforge.net/

SQL Relay is a persistent database connection pooling, proxying and load 
balancing system for Unix and Linux supporting ODBC, Oracle, MySQL, 
mSQL, PostgreSQL, Sybase, MS SQL Server, IBM DB2, Interbase, Lago and 
SQLite with APIs for C, C++, Perl, Perl-DBI, Python, Python-DB, Zope, 
PHP, Ruby, Ruby-DBI, TCL and Java, command line clients, a GUI 
configuration tool and extensive documentation. The APIs support 
advanced database operations such as bind variables, multi-row fetches, 
client side result set caching and suspended transactions. It is ideal 
for speeding up database-driven web-based applications, accessing 
databases from unsupported platforms, migrating between databases, 
distributing access to replicated databases and throttling database access.

I would be more than happy to help write a DB Virtualization function

I *love* the way it works in Java, but that's not a real possibility.
It wouldn't need to be as complicated as JDBC but it's a nice model.
We could however:
1)  Abstract out the schema from the database calls
2)  Develop a pluggable driver interface to translate to whatever DB
you're using.
This way...  You want MySQL, you develop a translation driver that
maps * db calls to MySql.  (fairly trivial)
Same for Postgres  (I'd suggest making this the default, as no GPL

Same for Oracle, etc.

Hi,

I had Snoms (100 and 200) configured with H.323 working with

Since I upgraded to asterisk-0.5.0 and I had problems with H.323
I switch to sip.
(The problem was: when I transfered from one H.323 phone to
another, chan_oh323 crashed and I had to restart asterisk. But when
a gatekeeper avoids that situation, it works fine - I tried with gnugk.)
But I still have the config file. The important things are:
fastStart=no

h245inSetup=yes
Same settings for the phone!

For the rest you can take the example config from chan_oh323.

This section should be expanded to know about ISDN and signaling should
really be combined with this section since you only use
kewlstart/groundstart/loopstart when actually touching the PSTN
interfaces. Also you should either interrogate the system to know how it
plans to load the drivers so you know which order the channels will be
in.

Does this make a difference as to whether it is software or not?

As a side note, you might want to disable the sip module if it isn't

Where do you plan on connecting these with actual channels? Also do you
plan on building out menu generation.

Don't forget to explain to the user your coddling about significant
digits, ie. for x number of extensions you will probably need to extend
1 more digit so they all start with the same digit, or only consume 1 or
2 significant digits since one or more will also be used to signify
outbound dialing and any number of other lead digits might need to be
used in other functions like meetme apps.

Might as well add configuration of outbound prefixes for dialing. Ready

gets tricky as you can't specify a mailbox until you specified
extensions and worked out the problems with the extension logic.

 Would you like to setup registration for FWD, IAXtel, SIPPhone or iptel?

Hi



I am a newbie and just set up my first Asterisk box.



I have got 2 x Grandstream 101s working as extensions and am now
looking to get to the outside world. 



Q.) Can you use a voice/fax modem as an FXO interface?



If yes, then how would I configure it.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] direct-inward-dialing (DID)

2003-10-07 Thread Andrew Kohlsmith
 Example: 456-7000 is your main number and you have 7001 to 7099 as DIDs:

 exten = 7000,1,Goto(AutoAttendant|s|1)
 exten = _7XXX,1,Macro(yourdialmacro|${EXTEN})

How are you dropping the 456 there?  I thought extensions picked up what 
either the SIP phone had dialled, or what DTMF detection picked up when * 
answered the line...?

I'm looking at purchasing a PRI with 30 DIDs (can't get any fewer from Bell 
Canada) and routing the calls coming in to multiple remote * boxes based on 
the called number.  I was going to ask a question similar to John's but 
just didn't get around to it yet.  :-) 

If you could explain in a little more detail how you turn the CNID into an 
extension I'd really appreciate it.

The number of digits that your telco sends to you is a configurable figure
(at least it is here in Aus). The example assumes that the telco is sending
you the last 4 digits.

What about the following device: USB FXS device (S100U)?

This sounds like a nice thing. What language are you using?

I know this would be adding a burden to coding, but can you also make the app be data 
driven so any future additions or new hardware would just be added to a a text file? 
(I know, this would be making another .conf file.)

[Asterisk-Users] Digium FXO

Is it possible to send an external hookflash
command to the Digium FXO card from the asterisk PBX?








Re: [Asterisk-Users] Help with questions for initial Asterisk wizard (GUI)

2003-10-07 Thread Steve Totaro
This is a great idea.  I have a good understanding of Asterisk but would use
this for initial setup if it were quick and easy, then go in and tweak the
settings.

This is especially good for a client that would like total ownership and
admin over the product but do not have the time or desire to ascend the
fairly steep learning curve of Asterisk.  Most network admins I know don't
like having an outsider come in to admin a machine on their network (myself
included).

You will experience alot of negativity from people that would like to see
themselves as the Best or the Master of anything and feel threatened if
something promises to take that away from them.  This is their crutch to
feel Special in the world.  To that I say Ba!

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Anyone else use Audacity for prompts?

2003-10-07 Thread d . redmore
Why compress all your prompts to .gsm files?  Isn't * going to have to 
reformat them anyway based on the codec being used for the call?  I have all 
my voice prompts as 8khz/16bit .wav files (* can't seem to play back 8 bit 
files).  I recorded them through soundforge as a 48Khz/16bit mono .wav - did a 
little tweaking to compress and brighten them up - then resampled to 8khz.  
Quality is as good as any I've heard from any commercial PBX...  It is 
important to me, if I'm going to use * for my business, that the voice prompts 
sound as clean and clear as any other system - from a marketing/PR standpoint.

[Asterisk-Users] Can AGI be used in this way?

2003-10-07 Thread Dave Wilson
Hi all,

I'm about to build a basic browser based call management module with some
basic functions and was wondering if I can use AGI in the following way:

browser app -- calls perl script containing AGI stuff -- controls
asterisk.

The most important task I'm hoping to integrate is call transfer via web
browser.

If not, are there any other ways to do this? My web app is built with CFML
but I can access/interact with any of the following:

linux shell - can pass any command/arg combos;
java libraries;
perl libraries;
php libraries


TIA,

The telco will send x(configurable) digits as CNID on a PRI. This
becomes the extension inside of asterisk automagically. I know you can
have anywhere from 3 digits up to the entire 10 digits sent to you.
While my company was on channelized em t1 we had 4 digits of DID, and
now on PRI we get the whole 10 digit number.

[Asterisk-Users] Communication between 2 telephones

2003-10-07 Thread Mireia.Munoz-de-jesus
Hi!

I have installed everything, asterisk, pwlib,openh323, chan_oh323. And now?
I want to install ophone to talk, but I don't see what is the asterisk role.
I mean, ophone lets us to talk with another phone,... why do we need
asterisk? What does ophone do and what dows asterisk do?

Thanks for all your help

Hey all,

I am in the middle of creating a new user wizard which will generate all 
the .conf's the new Asterisk user will require to get themselves up and

 This is what I have come up with as a rough draft.  It is far from 
complete, so I'm asking people to submit things that should be added, 
changed, removed etc.. etc...  so please help me come up with a good 
logic for the questions so that I may start the work on the actual wizard!


Maybe it's me, but only the most basic of setups will be handled by a
wizard. The person who does the setup necessarily needs to know a fair
amount about routing of calls.
Exactly.  This is not meant for the advanced user to come in and manage 
their entire system (at least not at this point).  This is meant to give 
the clueless newbie a little place to start in making their 
configuration instead of having to search all over the web for the 
handbook, websites from different people, asking questions in the IRC 
channel that have been asked 1000 times, etc.. etc..

I understand your concern, but it is simply meant to be a stepping stone 
for those with NO knowledge of how to setup a .conf file in Asterisk.  I 
realize it won't be able to take a non-existant * box to an advanced 
setup ready for production, and that is not what I am trying to 
accomplish.  I'd simply like to give the user a place to start and get 
some basic configuration files so that they can kind of visualize how 
they work.

Do you have any SIP devices? (yes/no)
+ SIP phone
+ Softphone


Does this make a difference as to whether it is software or not?
No, but it was late, and I was just writing stuff as it came to me :)

As a side note, you might want to disable the sip module if it isn't
going to be used to help close down unused ports. If you plan to coddle
a user, might as well do it right.
Good idea.  I'll have to keep stuff like that in mind for disabling 
modules that aren't being used.

  Where do you plan on connecting these with actual channels? Also do you
plan on building out menu generation.
Menu generation would be something I would like to add, perhaps using 
the festival application?  It might not be something I worry about at 
first though.

Don't forget to explain to the user your coddling about significant
digits, ie. for x number of extensions you will probably need to extend
1 more digit so they all start with the same digit, or only consume 1 or
2 significant digits since one or more will also be used to signify
outbound dialing and any number of other lead digits might need to be
used in other functions like meetme apps.
Hrm... right.  Yet another thing to keep in mind.

Might as well add configuration of outbound prefixes for dialing. Ready
to tackle all those international codes too. I'm sure our euro friends
will love it if you get those patterns all down for them.
Might as well eh? :)  Perhaps I can just have it ask for the prefixes 
that the user would like added, then the administrator can worry about 
adding all their own prefixes.  If I get THAT ambitious, then we'll see...

Would you like to activate any of these extensions now? (yes/no)
	+ List extensions with CONFIG | EDIT | DELETE | ADD links
		+ Who is going to use this extension? (name)
		+ What is the email address of the person as this extension? (for 
email notification)
Shouldn't this be folded into the extension setup?
Probably.

This should be folded into channel setup. Of course this is where it
gets tricky as you can't specify a mailbox until you specified
extensions and worked out the problems with the extension logic.
Right... perhaps voicemail configuration should come more towards the 
end, or at least after all the extensions are configured... ?

Set up Meetme apps, upload and use voice prompts, layout appropriate
contexts for incoming outgoing and menus, DISA. 

What point do you feel that a user is too advanced to us your wizard, or
at what point do you think a user of your wizard will be more pissed at
being hindered by the product than helped?
I don't feel that any user should go in thinking this wizard will help 
them put a machine into production.  This wizard is simple meant to give 
the beginning a user to start and learn how to actually manage the .conf 
files him/herself.  I look at it like this:  I'm a new user, and I have 
never even thought about looking at a configuration file for Asterisk, 
what kinds of things might I want to start out with.  I'd probably want 
to setup my dev kit I just ordered from Digium.  I might want to connect 
to some sort of SIP proxy so I can receive calls, such as FWD, 
SIPPhone.. etc.. etc..

I may have a pair of Asterisk boxes with SIP devices that I want to call 
between either with SIP or IAX (and as has been mentioned, the SIP

[Asterisk-Users] Xten X-lite codec problem ???

2003-10-07 Thread Areski
Hello folks,


I trying to get working my xten (X-lite V2) working with Asterisk !!!
It's working nice with my development server without nat but NO in my
production server with NAT=yes !!!


Below my client configuration for asterisk:
[general]
port = 5060 ; Port to bind to
bindaddr = 0.0.0.0  ; Address to bind to
context = default   ; Default for incoming calls
allow=all

[phone1]
type=friend
host=dynamic
username=phone1
secret=phone1
mailbox=; Mailbox for message waiting indicator
context=demo
callerid=Windows 2124


My X-lite is configured how I read in some old threads

Under System SettingsNetwork
1- Set the IP of you * box in Outbound SIP Proxy

Under System SettingsSip Proxy

1- Enable yes
2- Username (the name or number in your SIP.CONF [brackets]
3- Leave Authorized User blank (and remark out in SIP.CONF if you have
it in
there.)
4- Obviously set the password
5- Domain/Realm: the IP of your * box.
6- Sip Proxy: the IP of your * box.
7- Send Internal IP: ON


When I use the dev server is working correctly... but to the production
server, however it is seems to work fine in asterisk side (if I check
the console mode, or sip trace) but I don't hear anything in the client
X-lite...

I don't understand why cause the only things I changed is nat=yes...

A bit of help will be really welcome,

[Asterisk-Users] IAX and Jitter problem

2003-10-07 Thread silverflash
Hello, 

I've been playing around with * for quite a while now, and have run into a 
problem that I just cannot seem to figure out. 

When using * and any IAX client (I have tested with GnoPhone and both 
clients from iaxclient.sourceforge.net) I have incredibly bad jitter on the 
connection. 

What I'm running is a P3-1Ghz machine with 512mb ram for a server.  The 
other end has been various machines (all connected via 100mb switch) ranging 
from a AMD K6-2 350 running Win98 to another P3-1Ghz running RH Linux 9.0 
and GnoPhone. 

I've tried changing the jitterbuffer settings in iax.conf (including turning 
it off as I've seen some recommendations on the archives) and I've even 
tried rebuilding zaptel with the various jitter control switches. 

At this point I have extension 8500 setup to take me to voicemailmain.  When 
I connect (IAX only - I do not have any Digium cards in the server at all) I 
can generaly not tell what is being said at all.  I've used sox and a player 
and know that the .gsm files are okay. 

Anybody have any suggestions of what to try?   So far this has been 
something I've been playing with before I attempt to put it in a production 
system, but so far am not having a whole lot of luck. 

I've not been able to try SIP as of yet, as I've not found a softclient and 
the application I will be using * for would require this. 

Thanks,

We had the same problem and had to modify our extensions like so:

Add a w before the number and it will pause a bit.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] agi exit problem

2003-10-07 Thread mattf
The way I worked around this is to log the uniqueid in a database when the
call is placed with the start time and then execute an agi script upon all
hangups:

exten = h,1,AGI(call_log.agi,${EXTEN})

That script queries the database for the uniqueid and if it exists in the
table it figures out the call length and updates the record

It's a little bit of perl overhead but if you have a fast system and a fast
DB it should have very little delay.

Wouldn't it be cool if you could take the call back, into the IVR script after 
the remote party hangs up ?

Might be usefull for callcenters where agents want to allow customers to re-
enter the IVR wherever they left off. Ofcourse one might hack it by 
transferring the user back into the IVR one way or another, but it is a hack. 
Taking the call back after the Dial statement seems more elegant to me ?

exten = h,1, will not work if you park a call then pick it back up.  You
are flipping the call direction from what Mark told me.  Whats wrong with
CDR data?  is that not good enough to tell call lenght?

 The way I worked around this is to log the uniqueid in a database when the
 call is placed with the start time and then execute an agi script upon all
 hangups:

 exten = h,1,AGI(call_log.agi,${EXTEN})

 That script queries the database for the uniqueid and if it exists in the
 table it figures out the call length and updates the record

 It's a little bit of perl overhead but if you have a fast system and a fast
 DB it should have very little delay.

[Asterisk-Users] Large-scale Asterisk deployments: VON panel

2003-10-07 Thread John Todd
I'd like to float the idea of a VON panel discussion for large-scale 
open-source deployments, specifically using Asterisk as an 
application service and as a gateway service.  In order to do that, 
I'd need to get a list of panelists together who might be interested 
in speaking.  If you manage an installed base of 1000 users, and 
you're using Asterisk, I'd be interested in hearing from you.  I know 
of at least five of you that I've spoken with directly, and I'm sure 
there are a dozen or so more out there that are keeping quiet.  If 
you are willing to talk about problems, solutions, and (importantly) 
your value comparisons and real costs, then I'd like to hear from you.

VON is in Santa Clara, California (Silicon Valley) March 28-31 2004. 
If you are a speaker or panelist, your admission to the conference is 
free.  I'm just fishing to see if the panel might be well-attended; 
if so, I'll ask the folks at pulver.com if they're interested in such 
a panel.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] call parking on specific park number

2003-10-07 Thread John Todd
Hello,

Is there any way to park a call on a specific park number?
Not to my knowledge.

If this is not possible, is there any way to create multiple park orbits?
Not to my knowledge.

This seems to be lagging behind some of the other features within 
Asterisk which allow compartmentalization of phone calls in a way 
that would suggest that those other features were designed for 
multiple entities using the same system.  The use of contexts in 
voicemail, as an example, show excellent attention to segregation. 
However, parking is still a single pool, which would allow 
inadvertent pickups of calls between organizations if someone 
fat-fingered the extension.

Everyone would be very happy if you re-wrote the parking applications 
to support multiple contexts and submitted the patch.  :-)

Also, is there any way to invoke call parking of an active call coming
through a Zap channel from the manager interface?
MATT---
Does redirect do what you want?

A segfault during compile is either a hardware problem, or a gcc
problem. Specifically this error said it was an internal compiler
error and therefore falls squarely on your hardware or gcc version. If
you don't have any reason to suspect your hardware, check for gcc
upgrades. 

If gcc wasn't the problem, check your memory, cpu temperature, cpu
period, and possibly your hard drive and controller in pretty much this
order. Any of these could flip a bit or 2 and screw everything up.

RE: Re: [Asterisk-Users] IAX and Jitter problem

2003-10-07 Thread Joe Dennick
I'm coming at this thing from an Operational standpoint rather than a development 
standpoint.  Viewing your problem from that angle, I wonder how well your network is 
performing.  Could you have a cable problem that the Asterisk server hasn't reported 
(Layer 1); or perhaps your * Server is connecting at 100 megabit/half duplex, but the 
switch is configured (or auto-detected) 100 megabit/full duplex (Layer 2); or perhaps 
you have a bad port on your switch (Layer 1 or 2); or perhaps there is a mis-typed 
subnet mask or default gateway somewhere between the systems that hasn't been caught 
yet (Layer 3).  Is your Asterisk server busy doing anything else that's tying up 
resources?

You also menitoned that you haven't yet found a soft-phone.  X-Lite (from 
www.eten.com) works really well on Windows workstations.

  Hello,

  When using * and any IAX client (I have tested with GnoPhone and both

  connection. 
  
  What I'm running is a P3-1Ghz machine with 512mb ram for a server.  The 
  other end has been various machines (all connected via 100mb switch) ranging 
  from a AMD K6-2 350 running Win98 to another P3-1Ghz running RH Linux 9.0 
  and GnoPhone. 
  
  I've tried changing the jitterbuffer settings in iax.conf (including turning 
  it off as I've seen some recommendations on the archives) and I've even 
  tried rebuilding zaptel with the various jitter control switches. 
  
  At this point I have extension 8500 setup to take me to voicemailmain.  When 
  I connect (IAX only - I do not have any Digium cards in the server at all) I 
  can generaly not tell what is being said at all.  I've used sox and a player 
  and know that the .gsm files are okay. 
  
  Anybody have any suggestions of what to try?   So far this has been 
  something I've been playing with before I attempt to put it in a production 
  system, but so far am not having a whole lot of luck. 
  
  I've not been able to try SIP as of yet, as I've not found a softclient and 
  the application I will be using * for would require this.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] clocking source for T100P?

2003-10-07 Thread TC
is it preferred that the T100P generate the T1 clock or that whatever it is
plugged in to (channel bank, PRI, whatever) generate the clock?

That depends on the environment
This is what i have read b4 about t1 timing srcs

1. If the T1 is point to point  where both ends terminate on a different
* boxs. Then one of the T100p supplies clock for the other . The
network, unless other wise designed, will not supply clock to the T1

2. If the T1 originates from a PRI or channel bank, switch, etc, then the
network supplies clock
UNLESS the t100p can supply a T1 clock source traceable to a
Stratum 1 Primary Reference Source (PRS) ,
 then the T100 can supply clock back to the T1..

see here for a defintion of stratum src
http://www.raltron.com/products/pdfspecs/sync_an02-StratumLevelDefined.pdf

I am sure the clock on the digium h/w is not  Stratum 1 :)
Its is probably a Stratum 4 TTL oscillator...
I think there are only a few Stratum 1 src in the NorthAmerica big .

If your just clocking a channel bank it maybe a toss up who has the the
best timing src, but some might have a Stratum 3  certifed src ??

From what I have read most telcos have Stratum 2 or 3 devices as
backup but get an outside feed from a bonfide Stratum 1 src

Brian,

Would you be kind enough to give me a brief overview of why it doesnt work.  I also 
appreciate the work aorund.  This is something I will have to educate my soon to be 
users on.  We do a lot of conferencing of calls as a matter of facilitating clients' 
immediate needs.

For now I will try parking one or more of the calls and conferencing via calling the 
park extension.  

I already have a meetme room setup, but it's not quite as convenient as asking someone 
to hangon while you get the other parties on the line to work out an issue.  
Especially since it is our policy to authenticate all meetmes.

Thanks for everyone's response to this issue.

Leif, why don't you put the script up on the wiki so that we all can

As a newborn Asterisk user, I had severe problems configuring an ISDN card.
I believe a lot of new users start with a linux system and an ISDN bri card for tests.
When I mailed the list, I got no answers that solved the problem, but a lot of mail
from other users saying
I've got the same problem. If you solve it, please inform me how!
Oh, and kapejod that suggested I buy a real ISDN card to replace the junk I tried to 
use.
And so I've done. I'm eagerly waiting for my CAPI ISDN card :-) Maybe the CAPI part
of the Wiki will be a bit more detailed soon...

RE: [Asterisk-Users] call parking on specific park number

2003-10-07 Thread mattf
I would love to have separate callparking contexts available, it's omission
the reason I have not been using it up to this point.

As for redirect I haven't tried it yet, I just want to use the manager
interface to send a call on a zap channel to a parkedcall extension(ext.
700){or a specific park extension if possible} and then have manager receive
what park number that call is put on so I can display that on a user
interface application.

Thanks,

MATT---

Everyone would be very happy if you re-wrote the parking applications 
to support multiple contexts and submitted the patch.  :-)

Also, is there any way to invoke call parking of an active call coming
through a Zap channel from the manager interface?

MATT---

Does redirect do what you want?

[Asterisk-Users] auto 'modprobe wct1xxp' on startup?

2003-10-07 Thread john lawler
Hi guys,

Thanks for your answers on my two questions yesterday.  That's exactly 
what I was looking for, sorry for not noticing it myself, but I'm still 
getting acclimated to Asterisk and even Linux--from what I see so far, I 
love it.

I've got another one now.  Since my Asterisk install and configuration 
is fairly stable at this point, I'm interested it ensuring that during 
the event of a power failure, when the power returns (or if the machine 
is manually restarted) that Asterisk will successfully load on the other 
side (automatically).

I've used the provided asterisk startup script (which I moved to 
/etc/rc.d/init.d) and RedHat's 'chkconfig' to make sure that Asterisk is 
started on bootup, but the problem I'm having has to do w/ the wct1xxp 
module, I believe.

When I want to start Asterisk manually, I just type 'modprobe wct1xxp' 
and my two T1 cards are correctly started and then I can start asterisk 
w/ the normal commands and everything works.

But, when I come back from a restart, it appears that the Asterisk 
startup failed, and I think it's b/c the wct1xxp module is not loaded.  
What is the recommended way to ensure this happens?  I've been reading 
and found that modprobe (on startup, it appears) uses /etc/modules.conf, 
and here's what mine looks like:

   alias eth0 e1000
   alias scsi_hostadapter megaraid
   alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
   alias usb-controller1 usb-uhci
   options torisa base=0xd
   alias char-major-196 torisa
   #post-install wcfxs /sbin/ztcfg
   #post-install wcfxsusb /sbin/ztcfg
   #post-install torisa /sbin/ztcfg

   #post-install wcfxo /sbin/ztcfg
   post-install wct1xxp /sbin/ztcfg
   #post-install wct4xxp /sbin/ztcfg
(I commented out all of the modules I think I don't need, but it didn't 
work when they weren't commented out anyway).  Does this have something 
to do w/ it?  Do I need to add something to indicate that wct1xxp should 
be loaded on startup elsewhere?

I appreciate your willingness to share your knowledge and expertise.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] agi exit problem

2003-10-07 Thread mattf
Why does having a call go through call parking make the h not work? 

I currently don't use call parking for other reasons so I've never run into
that.

What is the event to run an agi script after a parked call is hung up?

I don't use CDR data because I have a custom perl/TK interface that grabs
live info from a database and I need a lot more flexibility than CDR can
provide. And I'm spoiled by being able to change the AGI scripts on the fly
without restarting Asterisk.

 That script queries the database for the uniqueid and if it exists in

 It's a little bit of perl overhead but if you have a fast system and a

This was probably not a good idea as you have configured your kernel

directory there should be a Config file that matches your running
kernel. You should then ba able to copy it from the /boot or / directory
as .config in your kernel source root directory. At that point you
should be able to make oldconfig and it will configure your kernel
source exactly as the running kernel.

I don't know if it would cause problems or not, but it doesn't hurt to
have consistency. 

 save the conf  do make dep.

All that file does is explain what to do when loading the module.

You can one of a couple of things. First you can edit the startup script
to try and load the modules. This way is easy, but I'm not sure it is a
good suggestion since it would try to reinsert the module when asterisk
is restarted. 

You could make a new init.d file and link it in appropriately so that
the module loading happens before asterisk startup.

You could edit the /etc/modules file and list the appropriate drivers.
This may be a debianism, but I don't think so.

I hope you are getting the picture that there is a lot of ways to get
this type of functionality accomplished under real operating systems. 

Have fun.

This is the same problem I just had.
Don't know if it's the best way, but it works.
I created an executable file called rc.modules in my
/etc/rc.d/
rc.modules-
#!/bin/sh
/sbin/modprobe wct4xxp
---
and since the module needed to load before the init script called
asterisk, I call the rc.modules file from within the rc.sysinit
file (at the end of the file)
/etc/rc.d/rc.modules
boots with no problems now, otherwise asterisk would not just simply
start by calling it from an init script.

astman comes with asterisk. It is a console based manager interface. If
you had libnewt-dev on your system, it should have been built and
installed for you.

As for the problem of zombied channels. You should only have to restart
asterisk at worst, not the whole system. I'm not sure what causes the
zombied channels and am basically waiting for someone more qualified to

RE: [Asterisk-Users] direct-inward-dialing (DID)

2003-10-07 Thread Paul Crick
There's been a few replies but thought I'd elaborate on my initial reply..

 How are you dropping the 456 there?  I thought extensions picked
 up what either the SIP phone had dialled, or what DTMF detection
 picked up when * answered the line...?
No.. if you have a PRI, the signalling is digital, no DTMFs there.. so
Asterisk received the caller ID and dialed number as part of the call setup
message. I should have explained in my example that I was assuming your
telco was sending you 4 digit DNIS. The stuff I used to work on previously,
we'd always ask for full 10 digit DNIS. Easier that way, you know exactly
what's going on (and no possibility of clashes if you have DIDs from
different exchanges).

 I'm looking at purchasing a PRI with 30 DIDs (can't get any fewer
 from Bell Canada)
Out of curiosity, where are you located and what's the PRI cost? (I'm in
Vancouver and looking to get a T1 in the very near future)

 and routing the calls coming in to multiple remote * boxes based
 on the called number.
So a sort of central hub/switch, taking calls in then farming them out to
remote * boxes over IP?

Cheers
Paul

[Asterisk-Users] Second Send: Using PCI backplane

2003-10-07 Thread Dennis Gearon
I am wondering if it's possible to use a bunch of cards in a PCI 
backplane instead of going out to the extensions with T1 and then and 
adapter.

How are people connecting to large amounts of extensions?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] agi exit problem

2003-10-07 Thread Paul Crick
 Wouldn't it be cool if you could take the call back, into
 the IVR script after the remote party hangs up ?
Yeah, for the exact reasons you suggested!

We had an IVR product that would allow you to zero out to the call centre,
get some help, top up your account, whatever, then when the agent hung up
the phone we'd plop you back in to the system exactly where you left off..
scored big points when we implemented it cos previously the user would have
had to hung up and redialed..

Maybe we need a new DialAndReturn() function? :-)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Second Send: Using PCI backplane

2003-10-07 Thread Steve Creel
You are wanting to use a PCI backplane and put a bunch of TDM400P FXS
cards instead of a T1 and a channel bank?  If that's what you're asking...

A T1 card and a channel bank yield 24 extensions.  If you figure the
TDM400P is $305 for 4 extensions, it would cost $1830 to get enough FXS
ports (not to mention the IRQ and other problems you may run into with
that many cards).  The T1 card is $495, leaving you $1335 to find a 24FXS
channel bank (which is more than enough on eBay).

A large number of extensions would be handled by way of T1s and channel
banks - up to 96 channels on one pci card with the T400P (1 pci card and 4
channel banks).


Out of curiosity, why are you reluctant/opposed to a T1 and channel bank?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Second Send: Using PCI backplane

2003-10-07 Thread Eric Wieling
Each card needs it's own IRQ, not shared with any other device (not even
shared with other Digium cards).  Adding a PCI backplane gives you more
slots, but not more IRQs.

[Asterisk-Users] Dynamic registration to flakey for production system

2003-10-07 Thread Stephen R. Besch
Three days after launching our * system with 20 GS phones, I have 
finally had to give up on dynamic registration.  The phones keep 
dissappearing from the sip peers list, even if just sitting idle.  
Either I spend half my time re-booting phones to get them registered, or 
the extension appears busy to outside callers and people get really 
irritated.  Even setting the registration interval to 5 minutes was not 
enough to guarantee that lines didn't go south.  The workaround was to 
hard code the phone IP addresses in sip.conf and turn off SIP register 
in the phones.  It may cost be a bit of securiity, but since the phones 
are all on 192.168, I don't think it is too much of a risk.  However, if 
I was on a public network, or, if the phones were using DHCP for 
addressing, this could be a major headache.  Has anyone else had this 
problem and if so, what was the solution?

[Asterisk-Users] [PATCH] allow announcements in app_dial

2003-10-07 Thread Brancaleoni Matteo
Hi.

Since a customer requested us that feature, I wrote this
little patch for app_dial to allow to play an
announcement to the called party, as soon he answers.
you can define the file to play in the dial() option,
using A(filename).
for example:

exten = blah,1,Dial(Zap/blah,30,rA(/my/own/announce)Tt)

that doesn't break anything ...
feel free to blame me for anything bad this patch could do ;)

if for the list is ok, I'll submit to the bug tracker, under
a feature-request.

Hey all..in trying to futher troubleshoot my caller id problem I'm 
looking at some past troubleshooting tips and this struck me as strange:

If I cat /dev/zap/1 I *always* see data...no matter if the line is in 
use or not...is that typical? Just curious...

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dynamic registration to flakey for production system

2003-10-07 Thread Chris Albertson

I'm debugging SIP registration too.  My next step is to
install an Ethernet sniffer to log everything that goes ovr the 
wire using ports 5060 and 8000~8020.  I'll soon know what's up.

You would be able to see if the phones are forgetting to register,
or if they are and Astrisk is dropping the data on the floor.

Switched Ethernet means I have to run the sniffer on the server
however or go and find a non-switching hub.

I have tried the soft hangup.  And sometimes it works.  But there are times that the
