Rich -
Leave out the "allow" lines entirely, including the "allow=all" - this was a problem I discovered post-publishing (that I thought I corrected in the notes, but I see that it's not there.) The "allow=" lines need a "disallow=" line to balance them. If you leave both out, the system will choose the "right" codec, but if you only put one in, things get twisted up a bit. I've updated the article (again?)

Just stumbled across the problem noted in my original post below. I added:
allow=ulaw
allow=ilbc

to sip.conf instead of the recommended 'allow=all' and now all phones work.

Can someone help me understand this? (It would appear, based on my very much
lack of experience, that * was attempting to set up the conversation using g723,
when all of the phones have 'default=ulaw' definitions. Should I leave the
ulaw definition for future production use, or is this really something that
I did to read/learn more about for a very small office use?)

------------------------
Can someone offer a hint on what I'm doing wrong with the basic * config?

Just implemented * for the first time using yesterday's cvs. The initial
> configs are based on John Todd's article at http://www.onlamp.com/lpt/a/3956,
 and using two 7960's for initial testing. When one 7960 calls the other, I
 get the following and the call is dropped:

     -- Executing Dial("SIP/3001-ec1c", "SIP/3000|20") in new stack
     -- Called 3000
     -- Got SIP response 488 "Not Acceptable Here" back from 206.222.193.92
   == No one is available to answer at this time
     -- Executing VoiceMail("SIP/3001-ec1c", "u3000") in new stack
   == Parsing '/etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf': Found
     -- Playing 'vm/3000/unavail'

My sip.conf looks like:
[general] port = 5060 ; Port to bind to (SIP is 5060) bindaddr = 0.0.0.0 ; Address to bind to (all addresses on machine)
allow=all ; Allow all codecs context = bogon-calls ; Send SIP callers that we don't know about here
[3000] type=friend ; This device takes and makes calls username=3000 ; Username on device secret=npi2003 ; Password for device host=dynamic ; This host is not on the same IP addr every time
context=from-sip ; Inbound calls from this host go here
mailbox=100 ; Activate the message waiting light if this ; voicemailbox has messages in it [3001] type=friend ; This device takes and makes calls
username=3001 ; Username on device secret=npi2003 ; Password for device
> host=dynamic ; This host is not on the same IP addr every time
> context=from-sip ; Inbound calls from this host go here
> mailbox=100 ; Activate the message waiting light if this
---------------------------------------

and my extensions.conf looks like:

 [general]
 static=yes              ; These two lines prevent the command-line interface
 writeprotect=yes        ; from overwriting the config file. Leave them here.

 [bogon-calls]
 exten => _.,1,Congestion

 [from-sip]
 exten => 3000,1,Dial(SIP/3000,20)
 exten => 3000,2,Voicemail(u3000)
 exten => 3000,102,Voicemail(b3000)
 exten => 3000,103,Hangup

 exten => 3001,1,Dial(SIP/3001,20)
 exten => 3001,2,Voicemail(u3001)
> exten => 3001,102,Voicemail(b3001)
exten => 3001,103,Hangup

exten => 3999,1,VoicemailMain(${CALLERIDNUM})

 Apparently I'm doing something wrong, but since this is my first attempt
 at making * work, I don't actually have a clue what I'm doing (yet).

 Asterisk did complile and install clean the first time (on new RH9 system),
 and both 7960's are registered. In some attempts to dial, I do receive
 vmail announcements, etc, so whatever I've done wrong I'm guessing it must
 be in the above config statements.

 If someone would kindly point out my error (and maybe a constructive comment
 about the error so I can learn), if would be greatly appreciated.

 TIA,
 Rich
