Hi there, We recently did our first * install with CAPI and we found the levels of support (and general knowledge) within the community seriously wanting. In fact, we found things so bad that I would caution against using CAPI unless you are feeling particularly game and confident in your abilities to fix problems, as you are likely to find it very difficult to get help if you need it. Out of the half dozen or so help requests that I or my colleagues posted to this forum or to the #asterisk IRC channel, for example, we didn't receive a single helpful response. Not one. Not that there wasn't anyone who was willing to help, but there just didn't seem to be anyone around who was using CAPI in anger. We originally chose CAPI over ISDN4Linux because of the commercial support that was supposedly available through junghanns.net (CAPI also provides a better feature set than ISDN4Linux, but we don't use any of the additional features, so this wasn't a consideration for us), but when we called upon junghanns.net for support it took them so long to respond that we needn't have bothered (we had stumbled across a fix ourselves by the time we got a response from them). If this hasn't scared you off then check out the documentation at http://www.junghanns.net/asterisk/ and the sample files/readme that come with the CAPI source. There is also a fairly good configuration guide at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+How+to+connect+with+CAPI and the CAPI readme is reproduced at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+CAPI+Readme. Drop me a mail at damian dot funnell at fff dot co dot nz if you would like me to send you a copy of our conf files so you can see how we're using it. Right now we are trying to diagnose a problem where the voice channels over CAPI fall apart a few times per day, resulting in all external calls having to be terminated. We don't know if this problem is CAPI related, but predictably we haven't been able to find anyone in the community who can help us figure it out. Best regards, Damian. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!
