I'll be a little more constructive than that. I've never done it the way you're trying to do it, and don't know whether it will work. I will say that I dis-recommend trying to test faxing, or even SIP in loopback mode. My experience is that debugging is more fruitful when you have two systems you can control, and this applies specifically to faxing where you want to be able to watch the sender and receiver separately. If you can disentangle the logs in real-time, more power to you. Fire up a virt if you don't have a second machine you can control. Now for the part I do know something about. Native asterisk fax support and native asterisk sip support improved in 1.6. With 1.6 there is a built-in app_fax module which works quite well for sending fax over SIP with T.38. I found the configuration and debugging simpler and more understandable. I never really knew why my asterisk-1.4 faxing experiments went so badly, and I had no reason to go find out once my asterisk-1.6 faxing worked so well. I will say as an opinion: Openh323 + ptlib_unix + t38modem + hylafax + asterisk-1.4 sounds like a lot harder to troubleshoot than: asterisk-1.6 with app_fax built-in Try 1.6. You'll be glad you did. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
