Here is what my experience was. Understand when reading it that I am running [EMAIL PROTECTED] version 1.5. I have 6 VoIP DIDs, two point to one auto attendant (aa_1 in my dialplan as created by AAH), two point to a second IVR (aa_2 in my dialplan as created by AAH) and the last two point to a direct extension. The "From PSTN" rules point all incoming calls to aa_1. AAH includes a "context=" in the main zapata.conf file. The rules for zapata are odd, basically you define a set of parameters and load it into a channel. If you don't redefine them and create another channel the parameters already set are included in the second channel. Therefore you can set the main setting parameters once and then change things as needed. The other thing that gets created by AAH is a file called zapata-auto.conf; this file is created by the "genzaptel" script and automatically sets your Zaptel channels up. If you open this script you'll see each of your incoming ports with a parameter setting of "context=from_pstn". What I did (against the suggestion of the file) was change the context in the zapata-auto.conf file to point to the correct IVR. The point that I missed originally that I figured out was that the reload command in asterisk does NOT redefine the channels. You have to execute a "restart" command, either "restart now" or "restart when convenient". That will reread the zapata.conf file and redefine the zaptel channels. Hope this helps, Hatton _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation sponsored by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
