Assuming Solaris is anything like Linux, the installer will just be a shell script. Open the script in a text editor and search for the text of the error message. It will be wrapped inside an `if` statement, just alter this so the test always passes.

Re: [asterisk-users] Dahdi on Realtime.
There is no specific Realtime database for chan_dahdi (that I know if). You can store the configuration using Realtime Static using the new chan_dahdi.conf notation without any problems. The only problem with Realtime Static is that you cannot use the text file, you need to load everything from the database. Another possibility would be to use an #exec from chan_dahdi.conf to extract the channel configuration from the database. Thanks for the reply Carlos. You have the model of the tables for chan_dahdi in static mode? This quite difficult to find on the internet ... And you know if the generals can also be included in a static way?

Re: [asterisk-users] TCP port, VPN and resolving the cutting voice problem
No but if google my posts about IAX2, you will see that I have seen IAX2 cause so many problems with audio, I have made a good amount of money just switching customers to SIP. Even a large ITSP. I have found it to be responsible for poor audio in over a dozen cases and after switching to SIP, the audio was five by. Several people that work for Digium that will remain anonymous, have said to only use IAX when absolutely needed. You will also see people agreeing with me and others that have no issues. I just use SIP.

I don't think I am using Direct media. Our switch should be handling all of the rtp traffic It did not do this on Asterisk 1.4.x or 1.6.2.x . If we use the # to initiate the transfer everything works. But our customers are use to using the transfer key on the phone. I found several bugs out there on the bug tracker but do not see if there is any work around. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. I have been chasing a deadlock (issue #18403) on blind transfers with 1.8SVN and have not found a work-around yet. While I can deadlock every time (Polycom and Cisco handsets), at least one other has reported different results with the Bria Softphone and Grandstream handsets. You could try a softphone and see if you get the same results as the physical phones. I have a version of Bria I can try later today. -Jonathan Bryant -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

[asterisk-users] alarm POTS lines
Hi, I've brought this up in the past and there was a good discussion - am wondering if there have been any new developments. Our dialtone service, like I am sure is true for most ITSPs, touts the ability to drop your POTs lines for significant savings. For businesses we have a low-cost Atom based PBX and a fax relay setup locally with hylafax/iaxmodem to solve that issue, and it is working very well. We don't however, have a solution for their alarm lines. The problem is of course that modem calls over VoIP are flaky at best. Even though these alarm calls are low baud rate, when we test with the alarm company we only pass about 30% of the time (ulaw from customer site to our central switch, then out a T1). To be fair there is no QoS on their Internet links yet, and that certainly plays a role. But it seems to me that there should be a solution much like our fax relay, where we literally accept the fax call over the local LAN, produce a PDF file, transfer it to the central switch which then dials it back out over a T1. In that case the only modem over VoIP is on their local LAN, which has performed well for us. I would love to see a DSP modem that could answer an asterisk channel, send the data stream over TCP to some remote asterisk, which could then relay the stream by making an outbound DSP modem call on a PSTN trunk. Has anyone attempted anything like this? As an aside, since the recent thread on Seagate Dockstar installs, I have several running. This would be the perfect platform for the relay on the customer end, being so ridiculously cheap (I bought three for $30 each, plus 3 $10 4G USB sticks). So hoping this will spark some comments on the concept in general, and really hoping someone has actually tackled something similar. It could open up a nice niche for even residential customers with expensive POTS lines dedicated to alarm systems.

Re: [asterisk-users] + on Caller-ID
Some discussion on other lists regarding this, but the + should NOT be part of the sent CLID, and isn't sent by the CLEC's. There IS some discrepancy regarding the 1 in the US. Some send, some do not. This can make for some additional coding when parsing The + is generally used only in print, though some mobile phones add internally. It is unfortunate that there seems to be no solid rule followed. the same can be said regarding dialing in the US, with each state now allowed to set it's own rules. It is generally considered, outside the PUC chambers, that 10 digits for local and 11 digits for toll are proper, but in some locales 11 digits for all calls is mandated, where overlays are in use. Some (diminishing ) locations with 7 digit local dialing still exist. Most expansion ( though not all ) in the last several years have been with NPA overlays. Splits end up as a more expensive solution, especially for the users, and once all electromechanical switches were retired, back in the early 1990's there was no longer a need for splits in NPA's. In summary, no + always a 1 John Novack Jeff LaCoursiere wrote: On Thu, 2 Dec 2010, Matt wrote: I've had this discussion in the office and with some vendors, but no one has a solid answer, hopefully someone here does.

Re: [asterisk-users] TCP port, VPN and resolving the cutting voice problem
Dear; I understood that Vyatta is the solution for the QoS, but I am not able to know if I can use a Vyatta hardware router to be DSL router and I set my QoS in it to resolve the voice problem. Is it possible? Thanks for the help. Regards Bilal Thanks all for ur participation and kindly advise. As I noticed that jitterbuffer could help if the ping does not have request time out but the voice is also cutting .. but in that case, I have to set the jitterbuffer at the IP Phones and Asterisk boxes. I have a polycom phone for example, and to set the jitterbuffer there are the following paramters: Payload Size Jitter Buffer Minimum Jitter Buffer Shrink Jitter Buffer Maximum When it use the minimum, and when it use the Shrink and when it use the maximum? If to look at the asterisk (in the SIP or IAX files) then there are a paramters for the jitterbuffer also, but really I am not able to know when to use this and when to use this: jenable, jbforce, jbmaxsize, jbresyncthreashold, jbimpl, jblog How to use the jbresyncthreashold? In which case? Regarding to the QoS, which will be need in case having a packet loose, correct? I just need to ask about something: What I will be able to do if my ISP did not setup the QoS at his side? What kind of settings I can do in my DSL router (in case of Cisco, or in case of Linksys that running linux firmware)? From the other side, if I used linux server to set the QoS, so do I have to let all the network elements to pass this linux server (so it will be the default gateway for other elements)? Appreciate the kindly help. Regards Bilal If getting a second circuit is out of the question. 1. Switch to SIP 2. Install and Learn Vyatta for QoS (Squid may help you quite a bit as well) as your router (or whatever you prefer) I use the paid versions of Vyatta but the free edition should be sufficient. I did the same setup over OpenVPN VSAT links in Iraq, 700ms ping times. I used GSM and some tricks on the Vyatta box. Originally, before I deployed the above, it was a wild west situation like what you have now. Going from G729 to GSM made a big improvement in conjunction with QoS. My theory on that is that G729 is already a very lossy codec, so any more loss, garbled audio. GSM is less lossy. Switch from IAX to SIP was another huge improvement, and then finally putting Vyatta and QoS as my router made calls almost crystal clear. There was the obvious lag time but users get used to that and wait a second or two before speaking so they don't talk over each other and the quality was five by five, except for solar flares, sandstorms, rain. Things beyond my control. Thanks, Steve T -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] alarm POTS lines
On 12/02/2010 10:58 AM, Jeff LaCoursiere wrote: But it seems to me that there should be a solution much like our fax relay, where we literally accept the fax call over the local LAN, produce a PDF file, transfer it to the central switch which then dials it back out over a T1. In that case the only modem over VoIP is on their local LAN, which has performed well for us. It can't be relayed; the alarm protocol is interactive, so a solution analogous to T.38 must be used. I would love to see a DSP modem that could answer an asterisk channel, send the data stream over TCP to some remote asterisk, which could then relay the stream by making an outbound DSP modem call on a PSTN trunk. Has anyone attempted anything like this? Guess what? There is already a standard for this, called V.150, Modem over IP. It certainly would be possible to implement this sort of thing for Asterisk, and some small steps in that direction have been taken way in the past... I'd suggest doing some Google searching to see what you can find. So hoping this will spark some comments on the concept in general, and really hoping someone has actually tackled something similar. It could open up a nice niche for even residential customers with expensive POTS lines dedicated to alarm systems. Or those customers could switch to cell-connected alarm panels (which are rapidly becoming less expensive and provide reliability benefits), or even IP-connected alarm panels. Either choice would be better in the long term than trying to convince an ancient alarm panel's modem to work over a packet network. -- Kevin P.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk error - 1.6.2 SVN - voicemail files corrupted
Hi, I know I am using SVN, but I was wondering if anybody ever came across this error. I can't read my voicemails because files seems to be corrupted, for lack of a better word. When I do access my messages, I get those errors: [Dec 2 19:45:05] NOTICE[25993]: app_voicemail.c:7432 open_mailbox: Mailbox: /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/xxx/709/INBOX, expected 0 but found 3 message(s) in box with max threshold of 100.

Looking into the directory, all files seem there. Except the sequence doesn't start at . I have thousands of mailboxes, only one has been reported as having this problem. There might be more though. 1) How do I fix this? I don't mind manually fixing it when it happens, but what's wrong exactly? 2) If this isn't the right list for this (considering it's a SVN question), what is? I'm using SVN because of the blind transfer issue somebody mentioned yesterday. Mike -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Asterisk can be started with a command line option that specifies the path to it's configuration file. The default is /etc/asterisk/asterisk.conf. Does 'ps -aef | grep asterisk' show the '-C' option being used? Also, Asterisk's configuration file can specify where ('astetcdir') it should look for sip.conf.

Re: [asterisk-users] + on Caller-ID
When sending CLID in the US it should never contain more than 10 digits (don't include the 1). In fact some providers will BLOCK your call if you do. On Thu, Dec 2, 2010 at 2:24 PM, John Novack jnov...@stromberg-carlson.org wrote: Some discussion on other lists regarding this, but the + should NOT be part of the sent CLID, and isn't sent by the CLEC's. There IS some discrepancy regarding the 1 in the US. Some send, some do not. This can make for some additional coding when parsing The + is generally used only in print, though some mobile phones add internally. It is unfortunate that there seems to be no solid rule followed. the same can be said regarding dialing in the US, with each state now allowed to set it's own rules. It is generally considered, outside the PUC chambers, that 10 digits for local and 11 digits for toll are proper, but in some locales 11 digits for all calls is mandated, where overlays are in use. Some (diminishing ) locations with 7 digit local dialing still exist. Most expansion ( though not all ) in the last several years have been with NPA overlays. Splits end up as a more expensive solution, especially for the users, and once all electromechanical switches were retired, back in the early 1990's there was no longer a need for splits in NPA's. In summary, no + always a 1 John Novack Jeff LaCoursiere wrote: On Thu, 2 Dec 2010, Matt wrote: I've had this discussion in the office and with some vendors, but no one has a solid answer, hopefully someone here does. What is the proper way to format a caller-ID here in the U.S.? Is it: +15705551212 Yes. or is it +5705551212 That would represent a call to Columbia :) I've always seen it +15705551212, but as I understand it the country code for the US is 011, which to me would indicate you put 011-570-555-1212 as the callback number. The country code for the US is 1 (actually all the NANPA countries, so Canada, Mexico, and much of the Caribbean). 011 is what you dial from within NANPA countries to prefix a country code, so to dial Coumbia, for example, you would dial 011 57 ... From other countries that would be different. From the UK, for example, the same call would be 00 57 xx... (if I recall correctly!). The + represents whatever your local country uses for international access, and only precedes the country code.

[asterisk-users] Sharing Fail2ban data
Good Day, I've been doing a little work that I wanted to share. We've had a number of Asterisk systems that have been under heavier than normal attack. We use fail2ban but we either have to let each system be exposed or keep all the data synchronized which is a bit of a chore. I wrote a little server that assists in keeping data synchronized across sites. If you're interested in using it to assist in managing your own fail2ban sharing list I'll gladly share it. I also am offering it as a free service for those who are interested in contributing to a blacklist. If you're interested the information is available here: http://fail2ban.aleph-com.net/fail2ban_sharing If you're interested in the server code just drop me an email.
