Thanks for the replies to my cry for help! :)
The weird thing is that sometimes tyhe caller does hear the phone ringing, and sometimes the line is "dead".
I will try your workaround, will it also work without playing the message for an extension? I use it at home and it sounds a bit silly :)
Are these bugs known at Junghanns?

I have exactly the same problem. It was also the same with RC3. It seems that after a couple of days of working fine, at some point incoming calls fail but outgoing calls still work (or I would hear user complaints earlier).
For the lack of ring problem, I do the following in extensions.conf:
[fromexternal] exten => s,1,Ringing exten => s,2,Wait,3 exten => s,3,Answer exten => s,4,Wait,1 exten => s,5,Background(enter-ext-of-person)
So Asterisk singals a ringing tone for 3 seconds so that the caller's phone has a chance to ring, then answers and plays the 'enter the extension of the person you want to call' thing while at the same time listening for digits.
I don't know if this is the right or expected approach but it works for me.

Hi list!
I have some strange problems with Asterisk 1.0.5-BRIstuffed-0.2.0-RC5.
Very regularly asterisk seems to lose connectivity with the ISDN line. If you try to call in you get the information tone that the number is not in use. Outbound calls do stil work however. Unloading the modules and reloading them and start/stop asterisk will solve the problem.
Another problem that occurs regularly : When you make an inbound call to asterisk the calling party does not get the tone that the phone is ringing on the receiving end. The line just seems completely dead untill the phone is picked up and you can hear the other party. Is this an asterisk / bristuff problem or something for the telco to sort out? Who should generate the ringing signal to the calling party?
Thanks!!!
