Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and fax
I would recommend you use Iaxmodem / Hylafax / Avantfax for your needs. We use this with several customers and it works very well. This way you do not have to patch Asterisk with spanDSP. You can set up as many virtual fax machines as your machine will handle.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk and fax
Dear list, I need to setup asterisk to send and receibe fax. I just looking about SpanDSP, Hylafax/Iaxmodem, AsterFax,...etc. The asterisk box has Digium hardware, one TE420B and one TDM2402 (8 FXO ports). I just read the SpanDSP (txfax and rxfax) makes the system more unstable that Hylafax/Iaxmodem. And the Asterfax solution does dislike cause its licensing. The TE420B, is configured in E1 mode. Which is the best solution to use with this hardware? Which solution do you use to send an receibe fax?

That is what I do as well. Use the "fax" extension to forward FAX calls. This does require that the FAX machine be connected to an FXS port on your Digium card. I do this with another computer with a FAX modem connected to an FXS port on my Digium card and it works great. Eventually, I'd like to move the FAX modem to the same machine with the Digium card so that I won't have to have another machine up to receive faxes; anybody ever tried that? It would be something I've never tried, having an RJ-11 cable between two cards in the same box. Any grounding/feedback issues with doing that? --Greg ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

No. Asterisk does not have fax support and there are no plans to add it. You can however send the faxes as voice calls, however there is no assurance as to its reliability.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2
Just a quick note, make sure /var/spool/asterisk-fax/ exists and is writable by whatever asterisk runs as. Assuming your connection is good enough, I had "LINE ERROR"s because app_rxfax aborted right after the handshake as it would not write the output file. I think there is a debug mode in app_rxfax that may shed some light. Otherwise see Alexander's reply about the connection quality. --Luki ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2
Get a regular POTS line and put a 50.00 fax on it. There are too many variables, 1. Does your provider really give you a clean g.711 connection or are they routing you from a VoIP based Trunk. 2. The internet may not provide the bandwidth or the relability you need to have a fax connection. 3.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2
Hello, I've been trying to setup a Fax2Email mecanism on my Asterisk box. I have been using the following: 1) An incoming IAX line on Unlimitel (Im not even sure if it's worth mentionning the provider, but I do just in case) 2) NVBackGroundDetect from Newman Telecom 3) The following extension to test: exten => fax,1,SetVar(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk-fax/${UNIQUEID}.tif) exten => fax,2,rxfax(${FAXFILE}) 4) A fax on a PSTN line to test the fax-to-file part of the system. Now, the extensions are called when appropriate, and the system seems to work...until the fax actually tries to send the image, and then I get a LINE ERROR on the sending fax. The actual error code goes something like this: "COM.E-7" In IAX.conf, I have configured it as disallow=all and allow=ulaw as specified in the instructions I found on the following page http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+fax . Where should I start looking to resolve this issue?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] asterisk and fax over ip - concept
That is a nice thought and takes care of problem with fax transmission over IP. However not applicable in my case though. Most 'fax users' will not have Asterisk on site but some other fxs gateways instead. Also from what I've read RxFax tends to cause problems.

Not so much a hylafax issue, but in order for my software maintenance requirements and management simplicity I like to keep as much as possible in one app. Integration with asterisk would simply mean less applications running on my systems to worry about.

While this is just starting to get a little OT, there is another option - but it requires a little change in mindset and work habits. Instead of blindly faxing, consider setting up a PC with a decent ADF scanner. Chances are that the document being faxed is going to either be mailed as well, or just filed. It could also be a standard document that you fax to many people. The PC could drop the document as a PDF, multipage TIF, or whatever to a shared folder. The user could then email the document image, use the PC fax software (like Hylafax), or just archive the document for future reference. The old paper copy can go into deep archives (sometimes even offsite - which may be a good thing from a records keeping aspect.) Frankly, I hate filing lots of paper. Chances are that I am going to have to get the damn thing copied for someone, the paper gets lost, etc. If it's electronic, I can even look at it from home or on the road. If I'm in a meeting and someone starts questioning the details of a contract, I can pull the thing up and resolve the question instantly. All my files are available to me or other people I delegate authority to access, whenever and wherever needed. There was a big push for "paperless" offices, which for the most part failed. Partly, disk was Very expensive, along with scanners, special HSM software, etc. It's a LOT more affordable and practical today. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Perhaps one of those unified printer-copier-scanner things might be better, but the models that will take multiple input pages start getting expensive.

[Asterisk-Users] asterisk and fax over ip - concept
I will be using Asterisk to connect remote offices to PSTN - over IP (SIP). These offices will use fxs gateways such as madiatrix and audiocodes to send VoIP traffic to Asterisk. Asterisk will in turn push their traffic to PSTN. The other way round will also work ie. Asterisk will forwards traffic from PSTN to those gateways (offices). The problem that I have though is that most companies send and recive faxes - and so will these. I dont want these offices to bypass faxes directly to PSTN but would somehow like to workaround fax over ip and Asterisk. What came to my mind was to add an fxo gateway (connected to PSTN) beside Asterisk to break out faxes to PSTN. Such a fxo gateway could communicate with the fxs gateways at customer premises and could reliably transmit faxes using t.38. The way I would imagine it is as such. When Asterisk would see a 'call' coming from a specified number (assigned to a sip port of an fxs gateway) instead of bridging the call directly to PSTN over a zap interface the 'call' coule be forwarded to the fxo gateway (over sip) that could reliably handle the 'call' (fax transmission). Would the t.38 transmission be properly handled by the t.38 supporting end points whith mediastrem passing through Asterisk ? (dont have much experience with t.38) Has anyone ever tried anything similar / different / wierder to try and deal with fax over ip and Asterisk ? Any suggestions and comments are welcome.
