[asterisk-users] Spoofing CID

2008-07-03 Thread Robert Goodyear
So who out there is aware of the FCC or FTC laws concerning spoofing caller
ID for deceptive purposes? There's a collection agency out there who has my
wife's name crossed with someone else's, and they are picking numbers from
our area code to present themselves as when calling us (over and over and
over.) I of course would like to turn this around on them as they refuse to
believe who we say we are.

Yeah I'm thinking either homeland security or some other identity-critical

Wow. How on EARTH do these people stay in business? Just running the  
law of averages and hoping it works out?

$10 a month for unlimited routing through their 800 number seems like  
a risky gamble for them.

[asterisk-users] Mixing Vars into Voicemail WAVs

2007-06-04 Thread Robert Goodyear
Has anyone out there tried to mix the envelope metadata for  
voicemails into the audio payload that's stored by Asterisk? I would  
like to have the CID and Timestamp baked into the beginning of the  
WAV file, not just as text in the email itself.


Thanks!

[asterisk-users] ZOOM 5806 ATA

2007-04-25 Thread Robert Goodyear
So in my ignorance I bought a Zoom 5806 ATA from Micro Center. It was  
cheap, what can I say?


Anyhow, the docs are horrible, but the control panel is fairly  
straightforward. I can get it to register against Asterisk but I  
cannot get it to dial.


Does anyone have a working configuration they can share?

Thanks!

Re: [asterisk-users] Marketing 101

2007-04-25 Thread Robert Goodyear
Agreed. Highly-considered purchases like telco infrastructure are not  
as much a push as a pull sale. It's about being in the right place at  
the right time with all the right answers. Almost like buying a home.  
Since the turnover is SO long with core business process equipment,  
it's almost a beauty contest when the time comes around.


A better analogy would probably be in luxury car buying. You need to  
look good, have a good feature set, be luxurious to drive, have all  
the right bells and whistles above and beyond basic requirements, and  
then of course have a track record of reliability and great service.


Just my $.02

Cold Call/Networking/Word of Mouth are decent methods of getting

Maybe I should clarify what I was asking.  It's not so much the  
how but the

what.
What are people doing to get PBX Sales/Support business.  I know  
how to get
IT business but potential customers still see the Telco business  
as quite

different and are used to using separate companies for that.

What I was asking is how the traditional telco guys get new
sales/support/consulting business.  With IT it's usually a  
combination of
cold call/networking/word of mouth.  I'm hoping that Telco is the  
same but I
never see any telco guys at networking events so I am thinking  
they cold

call and advertise targeted at business owners.  I'm not sure though.

I have experienced pretty nasty echo on my PRI w/TE110P. The echo was

we haven't noticed a severe degradation in sound quality - most of my

You could write a little script to mangle/unmangle your SIP context  
and then SIP RELOAD. You could assign it to a context called  
'disabled' whose only valid extension matching therein is to that  
same macro to authenticate and change your context back.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Very complicated dialplans?

2005-08-06 Thread Robert Goodyear

Using 'r' flags makes baby Jesus cry.  Stop doing that.







Excuse me?



r: Generate a ringing tone for the calling party, passing no audio  
from
the called channel(s) until one answers. Use with care and don't  
insert

this by default into all your dial statements as you are killing call
progress information for the user. Really, you almost certainly do not
want to use this. Asterisk will generate ring tones automatically  
where

it is appropriate to do so. r makes it go the next step and
additionally generate ring tones where it is probably not  
appropriate to

do so.


Can you educate us all on the appropriate circumstances in which to  
use 'r'?

exten = 300,1,SetMusicOnHold(confclass)
exten = 300,2,MeetMe(300|M)

I don't know why but for some reason I was convinced that setting the 
class here would not carry forward to the Conference's scope. Thanks 
for listening.

[Asterisk-Users] Skip Announcement Confirmation in MeetMe

2005-07-12 Thread Robert Goodyear
Anyone know how to bypass the CONFIRMATION of the user announcement 
recording in MeetMe?


While I like the please say your name to announce a user into a 
conference, I find it confusing and time consuming to make the user to 
press 1 to accept a recording they haven't even previewed.


I'm not a coder, but I'd be happy to comment out the confirmation loop 
if someone pointed me in the right direction.


Thanks.

[Asterisk-Users] SIP NAT + m0n0wall 1:1 mapping

2005-07-11 Thread Robert Goodyear
I know a SIP client behind a NAT trying to peer with Asterisk behind 
another NAT is troublesome. Has anyone had any luck doing this by 
interfacing Asterisk to the WAN using 1:1 NAT translation to give it a 
public IP while still firewalled?


In my instance I'm using m0n0wall, but this is a hardware-neutral 
question.


Thanks.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Definitive CallerID Format and anonymous?

2005-07-08 Thread Robert Goodyear


On Jul 8, 2005, at 12:43 AM, Jay Milk wrote:


All,

I'm currently only setting CID as a ten-digit number.  Has anyone on
this list tested caller-id delivery with various services?  Is there
*one* usable format (i.e. 1+10, or +1+10), or does it vary from
provider to provider?



Jay, FWIW the US standard for CLI is ten digits. I don't know if this 
has anything to do with your root question, but I thought I'd chime in 
here. I notice that one of my providers sends 1 plus ten for US calls, 
which is nonstandard and thus breaks CNAM lookups on the recipient's 
end via their PSTN provider. When one of my providers was sending the 
plus sign and eleven digits, it would break completely when that call 
was destined for an ATT cellphone.


Hope that helps.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Sometimes yes - sometimes no (dialplan)

2005-07-04 Thread Robert Goodyear

I am confused about one of my installed server

The dial plan seems to be ok, but sometimes NOTHING happens if I 
try to dial an extension (from X-Lite), next time it is done.


X-Lite does not have a tone, nothing and does also have no time 
out. It seems it is not connected to the server. However, a sip 
show users / sip show peers   shows that the phone is connected.


SIP clients generate their own dialtone, so if you've got no 
tone, that sounds suspicious of a problem with the client itself. 
I assume you've debugged the problem by registering a hard SIP 
client on that server?


The CLI prompt does not show anything either. It is like the phone 
is not talking to asterisk at all.

sip show users/peers   does show the phone.


...shows the phone REGISTERED, yes?


yes!!!



...yet no other information in the CLI or logs? C'mon, help us help 
you. The clue is in the question.



I cannot make up a CLI entry ;-)
There is nothing about it!!!
As I said it is like it is not connected!



Well if you say it's registered, then packets are getting to asterisk 
and asterisk is accepting them, and you've allowed that SIP client. 
So... if you say there's absolutely NOTHING happening when the phone 
dials, then it sure seems like the phone is bad -- again, assuming no 
event whatsoever is happening when you dial.


What else have you done to debug this? Have you registered the phone 
directly against another * box? Have you registered another phone 
against this * box?

yes, robert, but how do i join the two legs inside a call file or

i have experienced that call files can do a call to a channel and
if this call is answered it can either be connected to an extension
inside a context or call an application with parameters.

Mahmoud: you don't pass file extension to the playback app, and there's 
no such app called playbackground. Plus the OP wanted the announcement

Thank you, Robert!

The announcementfile plays well, but at Dial-option m i have to

that is something i cannot use (as i wrote in my post).


Noted, which is why I offered option two.



Background command waits for a user input, but the caller should be
connected to
SIP Phone 100 after it has answered and the announcement has been
played.


But it doesn't REQUIRE input. Background completes when then sound file 
ends. Are you saying you want to move on to announcing the call to the 
callee as soon as it comes in while the caller is listening to the 
soundfile?


I was following your sequential steps in your post, but if you intend 
to fork the process and be doing two things at once, then it's more 
complex.




Before
connecting to SIP Phone 100 the caller should hear a soundfile...

wiki says nothing about an Dial-option to play a soundfile to the 
caller

;-(


Sure it does... BACKGROUND.

It can also give me two-way (inbound AND outbound) failover with timeout forwarding from my VoIP provider, where if after xx seconds my external inbound IAX2 trunk does not pick up (either by design or ISP failure) the call is routed to my Cox DID, then internally IAX2 trunked across to my PBX.

I'm sure all this can be done with the TDMoE method, but I was just throwing this at you so can make an informed decision.

FWIW I've just been IAX2 trunking over to my other server with the TE110P in it; works very reliably and I can do a failover to VoIP if, say, all channels are busy or something else bad happens. It can also give me two-way (inbound AND outbound) failover with timeout forwarding from my VoIP provider, where if after xx seconds my external inbound IAX2 trunk does not pick up (either by design or ISP failure) the call is routed to my Cox DID, then internally IAX2 trunked across to my PBX.
 
I'm sure all this can be done with the TDMoE method, but I was just throwing this at you so can make an informed decision.

Right, the TDMoE virtual zaptel configuration as pointed out by Colin Anderson's post.

But I also saw the note about 2.6+ kernel issues, so I threw my idea at you. As far as dialing in to Server A's extensions, either plan them so they don't conflict, or prepend a digit to push calls into the right context on Server A when coming out of Server B.

Every trials(1-6) I got only 51 mailboxes copied. My quick guess is
256/5(u0103 and xx03s)=51...1, so changing tmp[256] to tmp[4096]
does not work. 'Pseudo-diagram' as you mentioned before(6/8/05)
is desirable for expandability, but it also did not work.




So what about the variable BASEMAXINLINE? Did you change that and 
recompile yet?

Just use alias extensions that then define a ring group of SIP agents

FWIW I provisioned a PRI and a DS-1 for $300 each. Don't know if I'm

one fiber drop, but that's what I'm paying here in Orange County. Also,  
I had a business cable modem before, which was *allegedly* not shared

Do you think there's any coincidence that exten 838, where you indicate  
the last vm is copied to, falls right around character 256 of that  
argument?


I would experiment by temporarily shortening the contexts to q (for  
headquarters) and s (for stores) and trying again. That would shorten  
the argument you're sending to the vm app considerably and would give  
proof if this is or isn't the issue.


Let me know... I'm very curious now!

Kind regards
Jenn

Hi Jen thanks for the info but I already knew that, what I want is for
it to not get picked up by voicemail on one of the channels. dialing
them in sequence is not an option either, and as I mentioned changing
the settings on the actual phones isn't an option either.  I remember
there was an option for the user to hit * to accept the call but I
think thats only with ZAP, anyone know of a solution to this problem
or something similar for SIP.


Shidan




More details needed. If you cannot control the behavior of the phones 
behind the other SIP GW (as you described it) then your only option is 
to control the duration of ringing to just below the threshold of 
pickup on those phones. Also, what happens when one of those phones is 
busy? If it goes straight to VM then that'll blow the whole timeout 
trick.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Digium G729 licensing - is it worth the trouble?

I hope you answered, As many times as is necessary to ensure I'm

Asterisk community by being a user/developer/contributor of Asterisk

Seriously. Even big, scary Microsoft lets users pick up the phone and 
explain a reinstall circumstance to unlock a lockout. And they're not 
even dealing with an open-source community who are constantly tweaking, 
adapting, modifying, recompiling, rotating out hardware ad infinitum ad

[Asterisk-Users] Don't know what to do if second ROSE component is of type 0x6

2005-06-07 Thread Robert Goodyear

I've seen this in the list archives; nobody had an answer.

Having dug through tons of OSI docs, I cannot figure out what a second 
ROSE component of type 0x6 even is, much less debug its origin or 
reason the libpri pri facility code hates it.


Anyone?

Christian,

I don't have any specific answers about your particular SNOM device, 
but what you are wanting to accomplish is an attended transfer, 
instead of a blind-transfer.  You should verify that the SNOM 360 is 
capabile of doing an attended transfer.  Cisco 79xx series phones 
provide both blind and attended transfer modes.

Enable atxfer in FEATURES.CONF so it will work with any hardware. *8 is 
the default key but I remapped features more intuitively like: *7 for 
call pickup (Star P) and *8 for call transfer (Star T) -- makes it 
very easy for people to remember using the letter of the feature.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] VoiPSupply Dot Com

2005-05-26 Thread Robert Goodyear
It's not the licenses, that's like 10% of the problem.  One can always buy licenses...  But the 16 man hours I wasted waiting for the across-town overnight shipment vastly outweighed the cost of the licenses.


To mitigate risk, why didn't you ask to pick up the product in person?

The main gripe is:
It's the fact that the next-day delivery for across town was two days late.
Add to that the fact that it was shipped to the Bill-To address and not the Ship-To address.
Thereby causing me to bill out 16 hours of my time (which isn't cheap), for sitting on my hands.

THAT IS THE PROBLEM!


I don't have any feelings about Voipsupply.com one way or another, but you're really beating a dead horse here about something that should be common sense. Like Ronald Reagan said about the Soviets: Trust But Verify. Translation: get a tracking confirmation number before you travel and waste your valuable time next time. Sh*t happens with shipping no matter how diligent the supplier is.

[Asterisk-Users] Affecting overhead with Runlevel?

2005-05-21 Thread Robert Goodyear
This is a _very_ green question, but I am just beginning to explore and 
learn Linux. Have to admit I avoided it for years due to other 
obligations but discovering Asterisk has forced my hand.


So: knowing that the X11 window GUI is a resource hog, is it 
appropriate to use the GUI to install and configure various components, 
then set RUNLEVEL to 3 once all is nicely set up and running cleanly? 
Would this give the same effect as doing a minimal install or is the 
mere presence of the installed (yet not inited?) packages too heavy?


Corollary: if Asterisk is running as ROOT, is there any benefit to 
booting at RUNLEVEL 1 to prune the overhead down even further? Or is 
that really only for debugging or administrative issues?


Thanks,

That would work fine.  You could still log in to the console and run 
the Asterisk console (asterisk -R) to watch things work, which is 
instructive.




Noted. To clarify, will dropping back to runlevel 3 still ensure a 
smaller set of processes that would be as non-intrusive as if I had 
installed Linux with console/command line support only or would there 
still be stuff hanging around that's inextricably there because I had

No, runlevel 3 typically doesn't include any graphical console 
processes.  Having them installed but not running only wastes disk 
space; there would be no difference to Asterisk from a CLI only 
installation.




Outstanding. Thanks for your time. So that's the answer to my question;

[Asterisk-Users] Anyone done the Cisco 7960 FW migration path programmatically?

2005-05-20 Thread Robert Goodyear
Has anyone out there scripted the rollthrough migration of the Cisco 
firmware?

It would be fantastic if there was an app that would generate a set of 
templated .CNF and XML files based on the MAC addys entered, then 
control and present your .BIN images through TFTP.

It could then also send the reboot signal too, walking through the 
oh-so-ridiculous path from 3.2 (which every 7960 I've bought to date 
seems to ship with) through whichever image you've bought.

If my scripting/programming skills weren't so weak I'd try myself.

Could it have anything to do with the fact that the number is prepended

Is that being stripped by the agi script when it queries 411 and

Or am I just a dumb fart no quite getting what I'm doing? (this is the
likely case!)
P.S.  If anyone has a suggested script to remove the +1 from the

it would be helpful in other areas as well...


I always conform the number before passing it anywhere. From Teliax I 
do this:

exten = s,1,Answer()
exten = s,2,SetCallerID(${CALLERIDNUM:2})
exten = s,3,AGI(callerid.agi|${CALLERIDNUM})

You could wire your own. It's simply pins 4,5,7 and 8. If you do, 
beware the attenuation of a long ethernet run.

That said, spending the time to wire up 16 ports may make a refurbed 
Cisco sound cheaper.

I suppose by this you mean some sort of client software installed on 
the client PC that listens to events targeted at a particular port 
this software is listening to. If this is the case, how do you make 
Asterisk communicate with this client software?

Listening for new rows in the mySQL db that Asterisk is writing events 
to.

[Asterisk-Users] Is there a product to simulate a PRI trunk?

2005-05-13 Thread Robert Goodyear
Does anyone know of a way to simulate the signaling of a PRI trunk for 
testing/setup purposes? I realize this may be a rather naive question, 
but I was wondering if you could take a TE110, for example, and using a 
crossover cable (or not?) and some means of emulating the NI2 signaling 
protocol connect it to another TE110 on another machine to test and 
verify an installation before the telco comes out to provision our new 
trunks.

Regards,

You should note that while this works technically, it won't catch

In other words, two asterisk servers connected back to back with a T1 
cross-over cable won't tell you that Asterisk's NFAS code doesn't work 
with Lucent 5ESS switches, or that Sangoma's code pre-firmware v1.1 
and pre-driver beta6 versions won't bring up the D channels when 
connected with certain switches.  Everything will work between two 
asterisk boxes perfectly.

Right. Which is why I wanted to figure out if there was a way to 
emulate the particular signaling protocol; in my instance, NI2, to 
ensure I'm doing all the right things on my end based on what I tell 
the simulated telco end to impersonate.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Is there a product to simulate a PRI trunk?

2005-05-13 Thread Robert Goodyear

There is no way, with an asterisk box to emulate a particular vendor's 
switch.  You can always change your signalling type and present 
different signalling protocols (asterisk supports quite a few), but 
you will never be able to emulate a switch from a different 
manufacturer, and then of course you have different firmware and model 
versions to deal with as well.

I can say from experience that connecting two asterisk boxes back to 
back will get you 80% of the way there, when testing for 
functionality, but you won't know if you are going to run into a 
problem until you connect it to the actual switch hardware you plan to 
connect.

Noted. OK, thanks to everyone for the responses. I'll set up for NI2 
and hope for the best when the LEC brings the trunk up.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] What do you name yours

I use tree names, alphabetically, e.g.:
Ash, Birch, Cedar, Dogwood, Elm, Fir et al.
Never had anyone asking me how to pronounce any Sci-Fi arcana that way. 
No offense meant to Sci Fi zealots, of course.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] CNAM lookup: new method for Caller ID Name delivery

2005-05-05 Thread Robert Goodyear
Other notes:
  The clever integrator of this application will save themselves some 
lookup $ by caching the responses from the database into their own 
database, along with a datestamp.  Perhaps if an entry is 90 days 
old, the system will re-lookup the entry in the Accudata database but 
otherwise will present the memorized answer.  (Hint: the caller ID's 
of your inbound call pool is probably 80% redundant)

I wonder if CallerID names are in the public domain or considered 
public record?

I have had this same issue also on SIP and IAX calls, but it varies
provider to provider.  Last time I checked I had this issue with
livevoip and teliax, but not with voicepulse.  Which is curious
because you had this with voicepulse right?  Maybe they fixed this
problem and the others just haven't caught on yet?

It might be time for me to do another QA session. It's been a while 
since I did some A/B testing across my providers. FWIW I use Teliax, 
VP, VoipJet, SimpleTelecom and I have a few minutes to burn off of 
sixtel if they're still in business.

I'll let you know what I discover.

How many other people are there here that write music?  Would there be

Would there be any chance of creating a GPL exception for them if we

I have rather a few songs, mostly in the trance/psytrance genre but 
also  dub and DnB.

Ideas?

Good idea. Might be an interesting niche to fill by creating a 
selection of dropout-tolerant (and smoothly-compressible) seamless 
loops.

IIRC I had some nice results using SoundEdit32 or perhaps it was BIAS 
Peak's loop factory on Mac OS X. Did a nice job of pattern matching to 
seam a selection cleanly.
