Re: [asterisk-users] Zaptel to Dahdi
Converting is actually pretty straightforward: Bare minimum: /etc/zaptel.conf -- /etc/dahdi/system.conf /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf -- /etc/asterisk/chan_dahdi.conf Any reference to ZAP/* becomes DAHDI/* in your asterisk conf files (i.e., extensions.conf). Granted, all I use Asterisk for is a fax-to-email mechanism in conjunction with my ~18yr-old Rolm system, but I imagine more complex setups are probably not too hard to replace. Most of it was just search replace in the extensions.conf file. You can also leave the older zapata.conf intact. I believe newer Asterisk version will ignore the file's existance. Ditto on the older zaptel.conf, since the dadhi code doesn't even reference it I believe. The only thing I miss, is I thought Zaptel was a pretty cool name. Like, lasers shooting everytime a call comes in or something. Dahdi makes me think of angels singing everytime a call comes in now.

Re: [asterisk-users] Dahdi Init script for Suse?
Doesn't look like SuSE is that evolved just yet. I poked at a few other init scripts in /etc/init.d, and they're all pretty much in the format of: echo -n Starting something ... command rc_status -v Some of the init scripts are downright horrific in their design because of this. I would imagine the newer SLES stuff might have cleaned things up, but Open Enterprise Server is based on SuSE 10.1/10.2. I would imagine that, whenever Novell gets around to it, OES3 will probably be based on SuSE 11 (if they even have that version -- I haven't checked yet). I think they're still ironing out kinks and trying to force stubborn holdouts (like myself) off of NetWare onto OES2. --J -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Tzafrir Cohen Sent: Monday, January 26, 2009 4:17 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Dahdi Init script for Suse?

Re: [asterisk-users] Dahdi Init script for Suse?
Nah, not using RPMs. This is a from-source build. Part of the problem is, I'm running Novell's Open Enterprise Server, which is SLES 10.1 (I think) with Novell's OES2 Overlay on top. So the Asterisk RPMs available for that revision of SLES weren't usable for me (they had 1.2 available, and I wanted 1.4), hence, source build. Might play with 1.6 when I start feeling adventurous again, as my asterisk config is really, really simple (it's a bridge between an old Rolm CBX and HylaFax). But I figured, if their init script supports two of the top distros, why not a third?

[asterisk-users] Asterisk (or maybe Zaptel) goes to sleep after inactivity?
Hi all, Noticed a curious issue in my testing setup for a faxing system I'm putting together, but it looks like if I let the lines all sit idle for a few days (no one uses this yet, so the whole thing really does sit idle until I do testing on it or something else), something I believe on my Asterisk end goes to a kind of Sleep. It's hard to describe really, but I'm not sure if it's Asterisk itself or maybe the Zaptel side of things. The whole system is connected by a T1 Tie line to my old Rolm system (a Plain T1...RBS, EM Wink, etc..), and on the Rolm side, when this sleep issue crops up, my monitoring there either shows things like RING-IN or ERROR, but no connection is actually made between the Rolm and Zaptel, so it's like the Rolm is getting a signal down the line, but not a signal it likes. I see the Wink indicators, so I doubt it's the signalling or anything. On the Asterisk side, it just says Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:0/0/1) almost immediately after Dialing out, and then plays the no-service message. But once you make a couple of call attempts on the line after a few days of inactivity, either fax calls via HylaFax or via an IAX softphone I setup for testing, it all just starts working again, which really baffles me. Lately, I also found shutting down Asterisk and restarting zaptel seems to work too. It's kinda like getting out of bed after taking a long napalmost like the system is groggy and so poking it with a stick (repeated call attempts) or hit it with a bucket of water (restarting Asterisk/Zaptel) wake it up (unfortunately, my systems don't drink coffee).

Re: [asterisk-users] Had it with Dell Garbage - HP Question
I've got two DL385s and a DL320, and they all rock. iLO especially rocks, but to leverage the full functionality, you'll need to get the Advanced License, which opens up full blown remote console capabilities (via Java). It's a separate piece of hardware that, as long as the server PSUs have power flowing into them, lets you do things like remotely power on/off/reset the machine (referred to as virtual power), monitor OS crashes (picks up Windows BSoDs and NetWare ABENDShaven't Oopsed Linux on one yet). iLO's allowed me to do everything from BIOS upgrades to fixing NetWare boot issues all from the comfort of my home at 3am in the morning. The build quality is superb...more metal than plastic, so they can weight a bit more, but I expect that of my servers versus desktop boxes. I myself use RAID5 in my DL385 G1's (AMD Opteron), which hold up to six Ultra 320 SCSI drives, on a HP SmartArray controller (64MB of cache thoughneed to upgrade that). The DL320 is a RAID1 on 2x 10k rpm SAS drives, on a...P400 I think w/ 256MB of cache. All battery backed. OS Support is great so far.

[asterisk-users] Pre-pending certain digits (like 9) to an outbound call number
Hey all, Working slowly on getting the myriad number of parts to my fax system plan together, and one of the pieces I want to nail is how to go about, for the outbound context (fax-out) pre-pending a digit onto a number? I.e., for all my testing right now, I've been dialing '91XX', as the asterisk server doing faxing junctions into my old Rolm CBX switch, and so I need the '9' digit to dial outside numbers. However, for deployment, I'd like to save the users confusion and have the server automatically append that leading '9' digit. That possible by chance? I assume it is, but off the top of my head, it didn't seem intuitive. Below is the exten lines for my [fax-out] context, followed by some test exten lines that wound up failing: exten = _X.,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN}|20) exten = _X.,n,Busy exten = _X.,n,Hangup ; Test appending 9? ;;exten = _9XNPANXX,1,Dial(Zap/g1/${EXTEN}|20) ;;exten = _9XNPANXX,n,Busy ;;exten = _9XNPANXX,n,Hangup I was trying to do some basic matching to the NANP formula to catch when someone accidentally mistypes a number, but that didn't match up and asterisk was complaining that no exten lines in the [fax-out] context were matching. Also, is it possible offhand to block the dialing of certain numbers in the same context? I.e., just as a check, to block faxes to 900 numbers? I believe my Rolm CBX will do this for me, as it's got a pretty extensive list of area codes and exchanges that are known to be sinister in nature pre-loaded (probably needs updating, though...), but I figured that if I could block it in asterisk, to do so. Save the Rolm a wee bit of processing and all (it is old, and probably senile...) That, and I'd like to filter accidental '9911...' dials using this technique (which would dial 911 emergency, and that wouldn't be good, since I doubt faxes are a good method of calling in an emergency (unless they have a color fax and can discern that the red ink really isn't red ink...)).

Re: [asterisk-users] NIN Ghosts music (free download) safe for MOH?
-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Faubion Ok now I am curious, if a radio is playing in a store, a restaurant or at the beach, wouldn't that be considered a public performance? And even though the radio station has already paid the license fee, does this mean that the person who owns the radio is also subject to these fees? I know of several key systems with FM radio cards providing MoH and I've often wondered about the ramifications of that setup and the music industry. Well, ASCAP/BMI are stingy on collecting their fees -- one of them even went after a shop for playing the Monday Night Football theme just because they had the TV on that channel when it came on. It seems kind of ruthless if you ask me, but these guys play their cards well, and generally avoid attracting the same the kind of infamy that the RIAA has managed to garner. Unlike the RIAA, they actually pay out their collected royalties. I don't know what their fees even are, but I think they're not too bad from a business' standpoint. Probably can't hurt to call them up and just ask. They might be willing to explain things in better detail.

Re: [asterisk-users] NIN Ghosts music (free download) safe for MOH?
That'd be ASCAP (I think there's another one too). They're the ones known for calling up places, asking to be put on hold to listen to the hold music, then querying on whether it's been licensed or not (among other tactics). Pretty much, unless it's music developed in-house, I wouldn't put it on the hold line unless you're willing to risk a fight with them (and even then, they're likely to make a fuss just for the heck of it). I also suppose this is why Novell support calls are $650 per-incident -- because of the large variety of hold music you'll hear on their support radio. Groups like Metallica, Smashmouth, etc.., even a live DJ.

Re: [asterisk-users] Configuring modem pools in Asterisk
Hmm, I don't know if the zaptel fax detection will trigger. This is going through my company's Rolm CBX switch, using a plain T1 cable (yanno, RBS, EM Wink, and all that jazz) between the two systems as a Tie line, so that may mess with the fax stuff. The Rolm's just wired to take a special extension block and pump anything coming in on them out the T1 trunk group to the asterisk server (which is only being used for fax purposes as a T1 bridge to iaxmodem/hylafax). My initial tests were using the 's' extension, because the other T1 card was mangling the DTMF signaling due to a hardware incompatibility -- the replacement card lets things work properly, and asterisk hunts for an exten line starting with the first digit of my extension group, not 'fax'. Though I can probably do '_55XX' as my extension definition versus '_X.', since my extensions are four digits long and there's only 100 of them... I'm assuming in the provided example, the priority value 'n' simply illustrates where I need to add 2, 3, 4, etc..., as a quick glance at voip-info.org's explanation doesn't indicate that 'n' is valid. Not sure what the |20 in the Dial() function refers to, though... Thanks for the pointers!

Re: [asterisk-users] Configuring modem pools in Asterisk [WAS: Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?]
Okay, T1 card issue sorted out. New Lesson: Stay Away from TigerJet chips. Next up, modem pool -- I wanted to know if the below config looked anywhere near half-sane for defining in asterisk what is essentially a small pool of four waiting modems that will handle faxes if another modem is busy: exten = _X.,1,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem0/${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,2,Busy exten = _X.,3,Hangup exten = _X.,4,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem1/${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,5,Busy exten = _X.,6,Hangup exten = _X.,7,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem2/${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,8,Busy exten = _X.,9,Hangup exten = _X.,10,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem3/${EXTEN}) exten = _X.,11,Busy exten = _X.,12,Hangup This seemed logical, but redundant. I've seen the usage of macro's to condense stuff like that, but I wasn't sure how to have it auto-determine which modem to use (i.e., iaxmodem0 through iaxmodem3). In my mind, I'm thinking of this in the form of a for loop: for each modem in iaxmodem0..iaxmodem3 is it busy? Yes: Continue No: Answer done done Is something like that representable in asterisk-speak? Also pondering ahead for working on outbound faxing, I'm assuming a [fax-out] context would be somewhat similar as the above, just a different set of iaxmodems (4-7)?

Re: [asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
-Original Message- Joshua, You probably mean a T100P? The single E1/T1 card? Been a few years but I remember seeing the NMI Errors on a HP DL380 (the Intel dual Xeon model). Nah, it's classified as a D110P, although the driver says TE110P. And I checked to make sure I had the onboard jumper rigged for T1 (open), not E1 mode (closed). There's another, unidentified jumper on the board too, but I'm not sure what it's for. Seen this one. Actually now I think of it I've seen those as far back as before Asterisk 0.7 with Dell servers. The DL380 T100P (E1) setup was only used in a test for a couple of months and never taken into production so I don't have any recent data. Hmm, so is it possible this card I have is a prototype that wasn't supposed to ever make it to the market? I've seen it in quite a few online stores. That said, because you've also seen similar issues in a HP Proliant system that's very similar to the DL385 G1, suggests it could be related to something weird HP does in this class of system that this driver and card don't seem to like very much. I've got to run some diagnostics later today on it to verify there's nothing bad with the hardware, but I've also checked for BIOS updates and haven't seen anything new for this system. And I know going through HP's support will be utterly pointless, given their phone people barely speak English anymore.

Re: [asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
-Original Message- Did you get that backwards? All my TE110P cards are blue. I got them from a reputable vendor (voipsupply.com) Yanno, it's hard to tell really. I just took another look at Google, and this: http://hardware4less.net.au/images/te120p_large.png Looks like a Digium card (The asterisk logo is visible), but it could be the TE100P too, of which, OpenVox's ripoff version is also green. I'm probably seeing this card in a lot of the online stores, because even this one looks remarkably close to the TE110P, which does appear to be blue, as is the knockoff I have. I knew the ripoff market was pretty bad and shameless, but until you're actually burned by it, you don't fully realize the lengths they'll go to rip a product off. Really all I need is a simple 1-span T1 card. Nothing fancy and nothing expensive (very limited budget for this project unfortunately). I think I might be able to recover most of what I spent on the D110P, so I'm gonna have to find something that's not too much more expensive (talking $300-$450 range), and I guess, just triple check to make sure it's not another clone card :) --jkinard ___ -- 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
Re: [asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
Okay, so I've been toying around on the Rolm side, and still getting nothing. Took another look on Asterisk, finally figured out where the debugging could be enabled on the console, and finding a lot of interesting things. Running 'dmesg' simply shows the entire buffer is flooded with 'PCI Master Aborts', and they appear as soon as the zaptel driver tries to do anything in conjunction with asterisk. Further more, there seems to be a problem with chan_zap and the my_zt_write function, in that it gets a -1 return code, Resource temporarily unavailable (which comprised the bulk of the asterisk debugging output). I've attached a snipped version of that output, notably removing about 2000 lines of chan_zap repeating the Resource temporarily unavailable error. Do I need to look at downgrading asterisk and zaptel to 1.2.x, or might this be some conflict with the Proliant DL385 hardware that currently hosts the T1 Card? FYI, asterisk-1.4.18 and zaptel-1.4.8.

Re: [asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
Okay, some more interesting tidbits to throw out incase someone has run into this before. I've found out that th D100P has been EOL'ed by Digium due to it being a bit weird with certain systems, and I suspect my HP Proliant DL385 server may be one of those. Anyone used this card on such a system, running Suse (or at minimum, kernel 2.6.16.5x), and seen either PCI Master Aborts or NMI Errors being fired around in dmesg? I moved the the D110P card out of what was a 100MHz PCI Slot and into a 133MHz PCI slot. The PCI Master Aborts vanish, but get replaced by this: Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 00 on CPU 1. Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason 21 on CPU 0. Dazed and confused, but trying to continue Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? Dazed and confused, but trying to continue Do you have a strange power saving mode enabled? Ad infinium. The interesting part of all of this? The whole T1-PRI Bridge setup works now. I dial my test extension, and a fax modem comes screaming back at me a few seconds later. That timing oddity with my Rolm system vanished with moving this to the PCI 133MHz slot I guess. The downside is my server locked up a few times until I passed a couple of options given to me by Digium's tech support. I'm going to go run some hardware diagnostics on the server itself to make sure it's not going all emo on me or something, and then see what Digium can maybe help with. But I thought I'd see if anyone's had similar or other odd cases on DL385 hardware. Cheers!, --jkinard -Original Message- Okay, so I've been toying around on the Rolm side, and still getting nothing.

[asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
Hi all, So I'm trying to work on this complex fax server setup, and part of it involves connecting my asterisk server to my Rolm CBX switch, via a T1 line. I plan on using Asterisk simply as a T1-PRI Bridge to IAXmodem (which in turn, activates HylaFax+ to handle the faxing). So far, though, I don't think I'm getting 100% of the way there. When dialing the fax extension from my Rolm phone, I get several seconds of silence followed by error tone.

Re: [asterisk-users] Connecting a Rolm CBX to Asterisk via T1?
-Original Message- From: Lee Howard So, okay, there are four calls coming in on the Zap (strange, but...) There's definitely some kind of a timing error here. I cut my channels back down to 1, as the Rolm isn't waiting long enough for an answer back from the asterisk server, and it gives up too early with a busy tone now. What I'm seeing is the asterisk server taking too long to respond in kind, only to find the Rolm's quit and gone home already. Also, asterisk seems to have signalling=em and signalling=em_w mixed up, as I have to use signalling=em to see a wink sent back down to my Rolm. em_w does nothing. An attached text file (rolm-asterisk-chatter.txt) is what my Rolm is seeing. Notes on each line are on the right and are my additions. Another attached text file shows what iaxmodem is doing during all of this. Something about adjusting skew. Here's what Asterisk itself sees (appears long after the Rolm went to busy tone): -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/1-1' -- Executing [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1] Dial(Zap/1-1, IAX2/iaxmodem0/s) in new stack -- Called iaxmodem0/s -- Call accepted by 127.0.0.1 (format ulaw) -- Format for call is ulaw -- IAX2/iaxmodem0-3 is ringing -- IAX2/iaxmodem0-3 answered Zap/1-1 -- Hungup 'IAX2/iaxmodem0-3' == Spawn extension (fax-in, s, 1) exited non-zero on 'Zap/1-1' -- Hungup 'Zap/1-1' And the other calls get busy and improperly run through the auto fallthrough process (you *need* a Hangup in your dialplan fax-in context). Added, how does this look? exten = s,1,Dial(IAX2/iaxmodem0/${EXTEN}) exten = s,2,Busy exten = s,3,Hangup I think that your zaptel/zapata configuration between the Rolm and Asterisk on that T1 is misconfigured. Set it up for PRI if you can... it'll be a lot easier, is my guess. Unfortunately, the Rolm only speaks plain T1 talk. It's too old for PRI. We have an Adtran Atlas unit infront of it that does the PRI-T1 translation that we get from our carrier, but to get another card for the Adtran is more than I'll be able to weasel out of my manager for now.
