Hi all,
I am running into some problems here with PrivacyManager. We used to use it
without any issue, but now there seems to be several problems.
We are currently running Asterisk 1.2.4.
First, it seems that if the user does not press the pound (#) key after
entering their number, PrivacyManager will fail. I have the minlength set to
10, and entering 10 digits doesn't work. Entering 11 digits doesn't either.
But entering 10 followed by the pound key will.
Second, once the user figures out how to operate PrivacyManager, there's
another problem: My extension rings to a SIP extension (Polycom IP phone) and a
Zap extension (we have a 4-port card with 4 different extensions on it -- one
of which is my cordless phone.)
On the cordless phone (through the Zap channel) the caller ID shows
"Privacy Manager" along with the user-specified number. However, on the IP phone, it
simply shows "unknown"
Is this just us, or is PrivacyManager not working correctly anymore?
Any help would be appreciated.
Jeremy
Has it EVER worked correctly?
From the Wiki and my experience with 1.2b1, if the callerid number
isn't a number, but a word ( such as asterisk ) it doesn't even come
into play, acting as if there were a valid phone number. The Wiki had a
"fix" that again according to the Wiki, fixes that problem but breaks
the callerid name
IMO, Privacy manager should come into play if the callerid number field
doesn't contain a string of digits, or, even better, a string of digits
of a length that can be specified, all without breaking the callerid
name..Replacing any callerID name delivered with "privacymanager" seems
unnecessary.
