To get MOH working, I'd suggest looking at the archives for this list a bit - lots of clues there. Ensure that you actually have mpg123, and not mpg321. Restart asterisk. It should "just work" with 7960's.

John,
Excellent, I removed them and works fine. I started playing with MOH, but haven't seen an example of how to specify this on a per system or per extension (but I haven't googled for it yet either). I do have one line uncommented in the moh config file, but I assume I need to do something in sip.conf or extensions.conf to make it work.
Suggestions?

------------------------> >>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?)
