Bob, Digium just released Fax For Asterisk (FFA, http://www.digium.com/en/products/software/faxforasterisk.php). Rajesh was wondering when a GUI page would be committed, so that users could use the new FFA on the GUI.

We have a fax server. Will Asterisk recognize an incoming fax and route it there or is this what you guys have been talking about?

Following Neil Stone's comment, if you are interested in hearing about a fax update, please start a new thread and don't reply to an unrelated thread. Its quite annoying to readers when that happens, and eventually many loose their willingness to help. So, if you were unaware, consider this a quick 101 of mailing lists. If you were aware, consider this a warning that if you want to be taken seriously, you'll have to be respectful. -- Ryan Brindley Digium, Inc. | Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA main: +1 256-428-6000 fax: +1 256-864-0464 Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rajesh Kumar ( Alshaya Group International )" <r...@alshaya-group.com> To: "asterisk-gui@lists.digium.com" <asterisk-gui@lists.digium.com> Sent: Monday, April 13, 2009 5:14:38 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: Re: [asterisk-gui] Queue Agent Support Needs Major Rewrite Hey any update on fax as Digium as released fax application hope to see it soon on gui Regards, Rajesh Kumar Alshaya Group International r...@alshaya-group.com Tel (+965 2298-0555 Ext 307) Mobile (+965 9722-4083) ----- Original Message ----- From: asterisk-gui-boun...@lists.digium.com <asterisk-gui-boun...@lists.digium.com> To: Asterisk GUI project discussion <asterisk-gui@lists.digium.com> Sent: Mon Apr 13 22:32:59 2009 Subject: Re: [asterisk-gui] Queue Agent Support Needs Major Rewrite George, You are definitely right, and both are known issues. When I first got onto the GUI dev team and looked at the queues stuff, the 'secret' sharing was one of the first red flags I saw. Its since been proposed that an 'agentsecret' variable be in users.conf for the very reason. And while I can't update on the status of that feature, I can at least report that its acknowledged. As for the 'an indication that the left hand doesn't know about the right...', besides that that comment is a bit unnecessary; its also just not true. If you look at http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=14459, you'll see that we were aware of this at least in Feb (although I'd claim more like Nov of 08), and that its a blocker for the next release of the open source GUI. The reasoning for the delay in development can simply be explained by listing my schedule. Good news is that its next on the list. :-) When I begin development on AddQueueMember (replacing AgentCallBackLogin), I'll report back to this thread on the svn branch if you're interested in helping test. -- Ryan Brindley Digium, Inc. | Software Developer 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA main: +1 256-428-6000 fax: +1 256-864-0464 Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Pajari" <george.paj...@netvoice.ca> To: asterisk-gui@lists.digium.com Sent: Monday, April 13, 2009 2:04:56 PM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: [asterisk-gui] Queue Agent Support Needs Major Rewrite Just started to try to use the queue agent and the current implementation of the Asterisk GUI essentially renders these features unusable for us. The major problem is that the agent login password, incredibly, is the same as the SIP secret. Obviously this needs to be changed so that the agent passwords are separate and independent of any other authentication information (for SIP or whatever). (I won't comment on the fact that this little gem appears not to be documented anywhere.) A less important issue but an indication that the left hand doesn't know about the right is the fact that AgentCallbackLogin is deprecated in 1.4 (and is removed in 1.6) yet is still being used in AsteriskGUI 2. I'll hand code some stuff in the extensions.conf so we can use queues but either the queue support in Asterisk GUI needs to be fixed or removed. To have those tabs suggesting that queues can be used through the GUI is just cruel temptation. -- George Pajari (dCAP), netVOICE communications 604 484 VOIP(8647) x102 www.netvoice.ca www.ip-centrex.ca www.ip-pbx.ca www.vpas.ca www.digium.ca www.grandstream.ca www.sipura.ca www.snom.ca Open Source VoIP/Telephony Specialists 1 877 NET VOIP (638 8647 x102) _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-gui mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-gui _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-gui mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-gui _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-gui mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-gui _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-gui mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-gui
