Max, Thanks your your reply. I have made some comments:

My question above is not intended to be Mac Specific. I would like to know how anyone would connect to a PRI with OPENPBX Don't people running OpenPBX on on other platforms need to connect to PRI/T1s? > > At the moment we have serious problems supporting OSX both because > - it has very personalized libraries > - no one of the *active* developers has a mac to properly test the > code I am fairly certain I can arrange for a Mac to be available for this effort.

You are implying that there is something fundamentally wrong with os x for this kind of application. but I don't follow what the flaw is. Can I get more info or and example? Is this message related : Dec 27 08:44:20 WARNING[5192]: timer.c:124 _set_interval: Requested a timer with 1000000 nanosecond interval, but system timer reports a resolution of 25165824 nanosec. Timing may be unreliable! What does it mean? 3) I am trying to figure out how to properly report a new bug I have found in openPBX on OS X.... On my Intel based Mac Book Pro within 10 minutes to 2 hours after I start OpenPBX, My Cisco 7912 can not make calls to any number (including the Demo at 500) ... It gives a fast busy after less than 1 or 2 seconds. I ran the same exact setup on an eMag G4 running Yellow Dog Linux 4.1 and it does not have the same behavior. My question on this is... What data can I collect to help make a more complete bug report. I get no messages even with set verbose and sip debug What is your advice about how to proceed with this issue? Where should I post it? Should I collect more data? Etc? > > Anyway i would be glad to see some OSX people who can actively test > *and* _develop_ on Darwin joining us so that OSX can be supported > better > in the future (and not ignored because of a lack on interest). I am ready willing and able to test. I am a programmer too, but I am not sure I will be at a level to help with that side of things. > > Max > > [1]: i have an OLD iMac G4 and i don't know if the kernel is the > same on > OSX servers. I don't even know if OSX servers have a GUI. OS X and OS X server are virtually identical. OS X server ships with a bunch of extra services built in and turned on. Anything built on OS X should run well on OS X server. > > P.S.: let me add a small footnote - It's always a bad idea to reply > to a > message to create a new thread.

Rats, I thought changing the subject was enough :( Last Question: Mark Engelhardt _______________________________________________ Openpbx-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openpbx.org/mailman/listinfo/openpbx-users
