We have a cron job that moves master.csv to subdir/timestamp.csv and then tries to parse and delete all csvs in that directory. The reasons we did this were 1) We wanted to store more data in the database without having to change source code. For example, we have 45 asterisk servers writing to

Sure. Make two contexts like these: [peons] exten = 1,1,TakeOutTheTrash() exten = 2,1,WashTheDishes() exten = 3,1,CleanTheToilet() [rulers] include = peons exten = 800,1,FeedMeGrapes() This way the rulers have everything the peons have and then a little more. Then use your sip.conf or your

Not to incite a flame war, but the only phone I like is the Cisco 7960. If you look hard enough you can find them off-lease for around $235 with a power brick. Cisco just came out with some new firmware that adds features previously sorely missed (like call forwarding). Once you get used to being

I prefer to record them right over the phone. Set up a macro like this [macro-recordsound] ;${ARG1} - Sound filename exten = s,1,record(${ARG1}:gsm,3) exten = s,2,playback(${ARG1}) exten = s,3,playback(vm-goodbye) exten = s,4,hangup and then in your main context do something like this

Without looking at your extensions.conf I can only guess that maybe the first digit(s) of your exten aren't unique and asterisk is waiting for a digit timeout. You can shorten your timeout or make your extensions unique. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL

The way we do it is our T1 comes in with unlimited DIDs. In our case we just order more toll-free numbers, each with its own DNIS. Then we have four FXS ports (Zap/g2) connected to hylafax modems. When the call comes in using DNIS 1234, asterisk sets the callerID name to 1234, sends the call to

I discovered and deployed a solution some would consider counter-intuitive. For whatever reason, I can get a dedicated long-distance T1 for about $400 MRC ($16 per line) while a local T1 costs over $1,200 MRC ($50 per line). My telco automatically assumed I would want/need the local T1 for my

I'm not sure my configs would be of much use as we have 40 asterisk servers with one unified extensions.conf so it is approaching 4000 lines, has 500 global config variables, and about 3 dozen macros/menus. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of

We have built this in-house and it works well but we had to overcome some challenges along the way. For example, 1) Your voicemail server may be off-net (behind NAT or using private ip addresses) while your email users are on-net. The way we approached this was to abstract the functionality such
