There is a small (and growing!) number of small businesses (and not so small ones either!) who are moving towards using their broadband (typically ADSL in the UK) connection for Telephony - and even installing a 2nd ADSL line just for VoIP. Indeed, many of our clients are doing just that. I would, however, strongly recommend against ditching PSTN entirely (in the UK, it's virtually impossible anyway since ADSL requires a PSTN line over which to run) - those PSTN lines are still useful for things like emergency service calls, directory enquiries, etc. etc. Regards, Chris -- C.M.

Re: [asterisk-users] Polycom power over ethernet (PoE) cables for 500/501, 600/601 and 650 sets
Stephen Bosch wrote: 3. I thought I might save some clutter by putting these cables between the midspan and the patch panel, but then I discovered that the male end of the cable is keyed, just as in the default AC cables provided with the phones, meaning that they'll only work if plugged directly into the phone itself. The reduction in clutter with this set-up is, unfortunately, not what I had hoped, though anything is better than nothing. I imagine it would work if I sanded away the plastic post on the connector, but that says nothing about how it might behave if a non-compliant device were plugged into it. Better safe than sorry. Actually, I did exactly this with the default AC cables. I plugged my Polycom wall warts into my UPS near my household patch panel, filed off the tabs on the AC cables and used them as patch cables between my (non POE) switch and the patch panel. I use a standard patch cable for the phones. I don't think this would be a good idea for an office environment. I'm not sure what would happen if I plugged something other than one of my Polycom phones (501's) into the non standard powered ethernet jack. I'm fairly safe in my home environment, since I am usually the only one messing with ethernet cables in the house, and I have told my family specifically not to ever unplug one of the phones in order to plug in something else (they can always plug into the back of the phone instead if they need a temporary connection).

Thanks for the pointers, I know about the Set(CDR..) function but I need the codec that was negotiated in the Dial (once I have that its easy to stick it into the cdrs as you pointed out). Ie a call comes in as G729 Dial then negotiates GSM for the outbound leg, I want to log both these codecs in a CDR. At the moment to find the codecs used I have to look though the sip trace or show channels/show channel (annoying when you have 50+ channels). Im just trying to find an easier and quicker way to keep track of the codecs used to help with debug etc. The closest variable iv found is, ${SIP_CODEC} Set the SIP codec for a call Ill see if NoOp (${SIP_CODEC}) shows the codec that was used without me setting it though I don't think it will.

[asterisk-users] Rapid DTMF missing digits
Version 1.4.2 but to be honest I have no reason at all to suspect that this is a problem with the asterisk software. I've able to replicate this from a few different client net connections and a across a few different linksys ata's. Where when you call into the host and enter the extension to connect to you miss the last digit of the extension. Almost every time you miss the last digit of the extension (in a 4 digit extension). My suspicion is simply because of the network we are currently using to host the asterisk box, as a packet dump on the lan segment clearly showed that the ATA transmitted all digits (rfc2833) but the asterisk host only recieved 3 of the 4. The second you dial slower everything works fine; also the lines for voice are clear with no noticeable impairments. I'm more curious if anyone else has ever run into a similar problem and what the resolution was if they found one (IE a sturdier net connection for the asterisk host), or Tweaking the timers on the ata's to slow down how fast and how long they transmit digits. I've done a few different tests and if I use a 'softphone' dialing directly into the server things work perfectly. I can dial as fast as I want, however when I come in through the pstn trunks through the upstream provider I find this problem. has anyone else ever seen this? Or seen a case where mis-matched dtmf modes across multiple providers causes this problem? minor detail on what I referred to as the 'pstn trunks' I have no analog or digital circuts all handoffs are sip. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Bryan Laird Saving Lost Packets since 1994 Have you seen this packet? 101010010 ___ --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

[asterisk-users] Strange problem with asterisk
Situation such. There is an asterisk working as office pbx. 6 fxo - 18 fxs ports. All works perfectly, but some times in a week something occurs. Could not catch what exactly yet. But symptoms such. The asterisk infinitely writes the message of a type to broad gullies: WARNING [20757] chan_zap.c: We're Zap/8-1, not ... ZOMBIE. Numbers of channels can change. Because of that that broad gullies get littered fairly promptly, I have not time to see that occured in an instant of the beginning of this event. When the asterisk is in such condition, the appropriating channel does not work, in this case 8. What can it be? asterisk version 1.2.14-BRIstuffed-0.3.0-PRE-1x ___ --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

I copied my config files straight over, so I'm certain it's not a dialplan issue (I was thinking the same thing you were, and I started throwing hangup statements all over the place). My best guess, I had something conflicting with an older version/SVN that was causing grief. We haven't had a day with zero crashes in 2 weeks, and it was progressively getting worse where we were to the point of 4-5 crashes a day. Going an entire day with no crashes is extremely promissing.

First, enable SIP history and catch history for these calls that hang with sip show history Secondly, check the dialplan and tell me more. Where are you calling, why doesn't the other end respond? It's usually calls where we retransmit a number of times and then forget to destroy the calls. If I can get a better description so I can repeat this, I'm sure the bug can be killed. In the bug tracker, there's a patch that will help you. However, until I find more exact information about the nature of these calls, I'm unwilling to commit it.

Actually, what he's referring to is that posters should start a NEW thread for a new subject. To send a message to the list, click Compose or New or whatever the button is on your particular client (apologies to those using console clients like Mutt) for new messages and enter the list address in the To: field. This means *not* clicking 'reply' to an existing message on the list and then rewriting the subject line (seems like a lot of extra work anyway, doesn't it?) People do this because they can't be bothered to type the list address. That's not hard to solve -- add the address to your address book and create a nickname for it. The reason is that it screws up the message threading. If you are using a threaded reader, or if you are in the archives, you'll have a tree of messages with the original subject line (say, My Asterisk server blew up!) and in the middle of it there'll be something totally unrelated (say, Marmite is good on scones.) Very frustrating if you're trying to read through a thread in the hopes of solving your problem.

[asterisk-users] Dealing with 2 SIP providers
Hi, I have a question of using 2 SIP providers. Let's say I have provider A and provider B, and I would like my calls to go to A, and then B if A wasn`t available Something like this would work: exten = 1234,1,Dial(SIP/providerA) exten = 1234,2,Dial(providerB) exten = 1234,3,Hangup But what if I want to put in a delay? If I put 30 seconds on each of them, I'll wait a total of 60. I want to wait only 30 seconds before the hang up. Also, if ProviderA has a main server and a backup server, am I now forced to have 3 Dial commands, or can I setup ProviderA with host and backuphost in the same SIP entry?

[asterisk-users] Problems with outbound calls through VSP
Bear with me this is a bit long winded. I am having some issues making automated outbound calls over Broadvoice from my Asterisk 1.4.2 server. For reference, none of the below issues happen when I make the calls to VoIP phones attached to the Asterisk server. What I am trying to do is call, using a .call file, out via the SIP trunk we have setup, and when the party picks up use AMD to detect if it's reached a human or machine. If it's human then one message will be played, and if machine another will be played theoretically after the answering machine/voicemail is done playing. By the way, I'd like to mention that this is not at all for spamming, or telemarketing. This is an appointment reminder service. from extensions.conf: [mycontext] exten = 899,1,Answer exten = 899,2,Wait(2) exten = 899,3,AMD exten = 899,n,GotoIf($[${AMDSTATUS}=HUMAN]?humn:mach) exten = 899,n(mach),WaitForSilence(2500) exten = 899,n,Playback(were-sorry) exten = 899,n,Hangup exten = 899,n(humn),WaitForSilence(500) exten = 899,n,Playback(welcome) exten = 899,n,Hangup The call goes out fine. When I pick it up AMD basically locks up, although not exactly because as you can see below it does recognize the HANGUP. However, it will not recognize my voice or dead air no matter how long I stay on the call to try. If I just let my voicemail pickup it does the same thing...takes forever for the call to terminate. Again, this all works as expected when I make the call to a SIP phone attached to the Asterisk server. -- Attempting call on SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED] for [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1 (Retry 1) Channel SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080 was answered. -- Executing [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1] Answer(SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080, ) in new stack -- Executing [EMAIL PROTECTED]:2] AMD(SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080, ) in new stack -- AMD: SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080 (null) (Fmt: 4) -- AMD: initialSilence [2500] greeting [1500] afterGreetingSilence [800] totalAnalysisTime [5000] minimumWordLength [100] betweenWordsSilence [50] maximumNumberOfWords [3] silenceThreshold [256] -- AMD: HANGUP I did find a solution to this lock up. That was to play a bit of silence at any point before I actually call AMD (even before Answer works): [mycontext] exten = 899,1,Playback(silence/1) exten = 899,2,Answer Although I don't particularly like this solution, as I'm just patching the problem that I still don't understand, plus it adds a little more delay that confuses the called party. Also, when I tried this I realized yet another issue, which could be the underlying cause of the whole thing. No matter what sound it is, no matter if I use AMD or not, the very first sound that I play results in a short screech sound before it is played. This happens every time without fail. If I were to guess, I would say that there is some data in the audio channel that is not audio data, and is being represented with that screech sound...but of course that's just a guess. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you are using a threaded reader, or if you are in the archives, you'll have a tree of messages with the original subject line (say, My Asterisk server blew up!) and in the middle of it there'll be something totally unrelated (say, Marmite is good on scones.)

RE: [asterisk-users] Need some help with a very simple Queestion..
You don't need queues to ring two phones, you can simply use the dial command: Dial(SIP/1SIP/10001) -- Would dial SIP extensions 1 and 10001. I would strongly suggest you might want to create a queue for it anyway. One of the things I've noticed in the past (and it's not asterisk's fault - it's a SIP endpoint issue) is that the majority of phones declare themselves busy in their SIP reply whilst they're ringing. So, for example, if two calls come in very close together and both phones are ringing for the first call, the second will receive busy even if the second SIP device could take that call.

Re: [asterisk-users] Rapid DTMF missing digits
I have actually seen this behaviour on 1.2.x. I always assumed it was just me dialing too fast for the ATA. On 5/11/07, Bryan Laird [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Version 1.4.2 but to be honest I have no reason at all to suspect that this is a problem with the asterisk software. I've able to replicate this from a few different client net connections and a across a few different linksys ata's. Where when you call into the host and enter the extension to connect to you miss the last digit of the extension. Almost every time you miss the last digit of the extension (in a 4 digit extension). My suspicion is simply because of the network we are currently using to host the asterisk box, as a packet dump on the lan segment clearly showed that the ATA transmitted all digits (rfc2833) but the asterisk host only recieved 3 of the 4. The second you dial slower everything works fine; also the lines for voice are clear with no noticeable impairments. I'm more curious if anyone else has ever run into a similar problem and what the resolution was if they found one (IE a sturdier net connection for the asterisk host), or Tweaking the timers on the ata's to slow down how fast and how long they transmit digits. I've done a few different tests and if I use a 'softphone' dialing directly into the server things work perfectly. I can dial as fast as I want, however when I come in through the pstn trunks through the upstream provider I find this problem. has anyone else ever seen this? Or seen a case where mis-matched dtmf modes across multiple providers causes this problem? minor detail on what I referred to as the 'pstn trunks' I have no analog or digital circuts all handoffs are sip. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Bryan Laird Saving Lost Packets since 1994 Have you seen this packet? 101010010 ___ --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 ___ --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

Wait for the installation to happen, then cancel the lines after paying for a month. Depending how saturated the area is, this can be a cheap way to force an upgrade and either get your analog lines delivered on t1 or get fibre to the building etc. On 5/11/07, Smith, Rick [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Let me see.

Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk SIP domain (in LAN or DMZ)?
Hi, In my opinion, you should keep your Asterisk, probably with PSTN Cards, inside your network and just setup an OpenSer or even simpler another Asterisk server on your DMZ. This way you will enable ENUM and URIs for your Clients, and will prevent much better any DoS, intrusion or any other backhole that would let external users places PSTN calls through your server. At the sametime if something goes wrong on outside world, your Lan VoIP going will be kept 99,99% fully functional and let you make and receive calls through PSTN. Good Luck, Marco Mouta Ps.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk crashes
Hello, I have very annoying problem with asterisk 1.4.4: Every evening when I have peak load asterisk crashes, peak load is only over 20-30 sip-to-h323 simultaneous calls. Nothing special in logs after crash. Load average never was higher than 0.3, asterisk never uses more than 12% CPU (according to top). Tried SVN versions - same result. Both h323 and sip peers has only one codec allowed - g729 - so no conversion. There is no conferences, call recordings or something like this - very simple setup. Software config: Linux Slackware 11.0 Kernel 2.6.21.1 Asterisk 1.4.4 (native h323 channel from asterisk tarball) Libpri-1.4.0 Zaptel-1.4.2.1 (using ztdummy for internal sync, no zaptel hardware) pwlib_v1_10_0 openh323_v1_18_0 Hardware config: Intel SE7210TP1 motherboard P4 3GHz HT 1Mb cache CPU 1Gb RAM (dual channel, two same DIMMs from intel recommended list) 80Gb SATA HDD No zaptel hardware or even any PCI cards There isn't overheating and voltage problems with a hardware (controlling over IPMI), this hardware (with another HDD and software versions) worked fine about year with asterisk restarts manually only for a version upgrade. Could somebody point me the way to debug this problem?

Re: [asterisk-users] Problems with outbound calls through VSP
Update: I was able to obtain another VSP to try and rule out Broadvoice. Seems that either my Broadvoice settings, or something on their end is causing the brief screech noise upon playing the first sound. However, with this new VSP I still have the AMD (Answering Machine Detect) problem where it locks up unless I play some sound before calling AMD. So my modified question is, has anyone ever had a problem with AMD through a VSP (SIP, in this case). And it does *not* lock up when calling phones local to the server. Christopher Robinson wrote: Bear with me this is a bit long winded. I am having some issues making automated outbound calls over Broadvoice from my Asterisk 1.4.2 server. For reference, none of the below issues happen when I make the calls to VoIP phones attached to the Asterisk server. What I am trying to do is call, using a .call file, out via the SIP trunk we have setup, and when the party picks up use AMD to detect if it's reached a human or machine. If it's human then one message will be played, and if machine another will be played theoretically after the answering machine/voicemail is done playing. By the way, I'd like to mention that this is not at all for spamming, or telemarketing. This is an appointment reminder service. from extensions.conf: [mycontext] exten = 899,1,Answer exten = 899,2,Wait(2) exten = 899,3,AMD exten = 899,n,GotoIf($[${AMDSTATUS}=HUMAN]?humn:mach) exten = 899,n(mach),WaitForSilence(2500) exten = 899,n,Playback(were-sorry) exten = 899,n,Hangup exten = 899,n(humn),WaitForSilence(500) exten = 899,n,Playback(welcome) exten = 899,n,Hangup The call goes out fine. When I pick it up AMD basically locks up, although not exactly because as you can see below it does recognize the HANGUP. However, it will not recognize my voice or dead air no matter how long I stay on the call to try. If I just let my voicemail pickup it does the same thing...takes forever for the call to terminate. Again, this all works as expected when I make the call to a SIP phone attached to the Asterisk server. -- Attempting call on SIP/[EMAIL PROTECTED] for [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1 (Retry 1) Channel SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080 was answered. -- Executing [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1] Answer(SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080, ) in new stack -- Executing [EMAIL PROTECTED]:2] AMD(SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080, ) in new stack -- AMD: SIP/sip.broadvoice.com-08bad080 (null) (Fmt: 4) -- AMD: initialSilence [2500] greeting [1500] afterGreetingSilence [800] totalAnalysisTime [5000] minimumWordLength [100] betweenWordsSilence [50] maximumNumberOfWords [3] silenceThreshold [256] -- AMD: HANGUP I did find a solution to this lock up. That was to play a bit of silence at any point before I actually call AMD (even before Answer works): [mycontext] exten = 899,1,Playback(silence/1) exten = 899,2,Answer Although I don't particularly like this solution, as I'm just patching the problem that I still don't understand, plus it adds a little more delay that confuses the called party. Also, when I tried this I realized yet another issue, which could be the underlying cause of the whole thing. No matter what sound it is, no matter if I use AMD or not, the very first sound that I play results in a short screech sound before it is played. This happens every time without fail. If I were to guess, I would say that there is some data in the audio channel that is not audio data, and is being represented with that screech sound...but of course that's just a guess.

Re: [asterisk-users] Dry Copper Pair
So we know, and I know, that a dry copper pair has no load coils, etc. Generally sells for about $20/line.. sometimes less. Is there something that iLEC will sell that has load coils in it? Like say, if I wanted to run voice over it, and didn't care about data? IE.. I know this is VoIP, but say I wanted to put an analog extension someplace.Is there a cheap alternative I could hook between me and the remote location, going analog all the way?

I don't know that they'd necessarily sell you anything with load coils *per se*, especially since the general trend is to remove them as xDSL becomes more pervasive, etc. But if you just wanted to run an analog line, there's no reason why you couldn't just put an FXO adaptor on one end and an analog phone on the other in theory.

I am not sure if its all pairs or just pairs that had a line provisioned at one time. ANAC just replys with some error message if you try to determine the phone number of the line. What I am talking about though is if you want to run dsl or some other highspeed type of thing or just an analog pair to a neighbour, or another office in the same neighbourhood, complex etc. All you do is put your tone generator on an empty pair at both locations trace down till you find them in the same F1/F2 box, and jump across them. (no connection to or through the CO, but only possible if both areas are served by the same F1 cable.) Around here at least, the worker who actually gets the work order for an analog install is told the frame port and corresponding F1 pair, and they just find a free F2 pair and use it, so unless they happened to notice the cross connect between 2 F2 pairs, or even noticed it and cared, who would know ? Actually it would probably take some investigation to even tell if its a legitimate bridge tap or the left overs of one or just something that is not supposed to be there at all. In a world of if its not broke don't touch it, it would likely never get touched. Even on a lower level, if you want cable between immediate neighbours, just make a cross connect at the nearest pedestal or overhead box if you both are served from it and have a spare pair in your lateral cables. Here's some food for thought - around here at least where there is buried telco fibre, the splices are done in pedestals that don't even have locks on the doors, just a screen door type latch, might keep a racoon out but that would even be pushing it.

I am not sure if its all pairs or just pairs that had a line provisioned at one time. ANAC just replys with some error message if you try to determine the phone number of the line. If you're talking about for DSL use (i.e. connecting to a BAS and using resold DSL service) then yeah, there's almost always dialtone and you can only call the numbers listed. Dry copper (two pairs cross-connected at the CO) has nothing on it. No battery, nothing. Loading coils will be present if one of the loops is exceptionally long, but otherwise it's just as if you'd run the copper between the locations yourself. Where I was located (Listowel, Ontario) we seemed to get better speed vs distance compared to the equipment's ratings, but we chalked that up to having heavier gauge wire in the copper plant (small rural town) and thus less losses in the lines, not to mention possibly a lot fewer competing signals in the trunks. What I am talking about though is if you want to run dsl or some other highspeed type of thing or just an analog pair to a neighbour, or another office in the same neighbourhood, complex etc. All you do is put your tone generator on an empty pair at both locations trace down till you find them in the same F1/F2 box, and jump across them. (no connection to or through the CO, but only possible if both areas are served by the same F1 cable.) Around here at least, the worker who Bell was HIGHLY adverse to this, as it played havoc with their planning, at least according to them. We were only able to have them cross-connected at a pedestal in one (early on) loop; all others were REQUIRED to run through the CO, which often added too much distance for us to make it useful. F2 pairs, or even noticed it and cared, who would know ? Actually it would probably take some investigation to even tell if its a legitimate bridge tap or the left overs of one or just something that is not supposed to be there at all. In a world of if its not broke don't touch it, it would likely never get touched. That's the other thing we ran into from time to time: bridge taps. Loops that should have gotten an easy 1.5meg wouldn't sync at all, and eventually the culprit was found to be a 5km tap run off to some new subdivision. -A. ___ --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] Dealing with 2 SIP providers
What I mean is I want a call to go out on ProviderA, UNLESS it's down and then go to ProviderB. I want it to ring 30 seconds and then Hangup if nobody has answers. This one's actually a bit more complicated than it first seems, since you need to know how each provider reports status when it's unavailable. We run the following AEL macros to achieve something similar: (apologies to the list for the big chunk of code below - I'm not sure how well/if the list handles attachments) // DIAL NUMBER (with a range of routing options) macro outbound (number, route1, route2, route3, route4, route5) { // set correct outbound caller id if (${LEN(${CALLERID(number)})} 10 ${LEN(${CALLERID(number)})} 0) { if (${LEN(${DB(callerid/${CDR(accountcode)})})} 9) { CALLERID(number)=${DB(callerid/${CDR(accountcode)})}; } else Set(CALLERID(number)=); }; dialstart: switch (${route1}) { case dundi: if (${number:0:2} = 00) { dundi-e164 (${number:2}); } else if (${number:0:1} = 0) { dundi-e164 (44${number:1}); } else dundi-e164 (${number}); break; case provider1: dialout (IAX2/provider1/${number}); break; case provider2: dialout (IAX2/provider2/${number}); break; case provider3: dialout (IAX2/provider3/${number}); break; case pstn: dialout (Zap/g1/${number}); break; default: NoOp (invalid route: ${route1}); }; if (${LEN(${route2})} 0) { route1=${route2}; } else { Playtones (congestion); Congestion (); }; if (${LEN(${route3})} 0) route2=${route3}; if (${LEN(${route4})} 0) route3=${route4}; if (${LEN(${route5})} 0) route4=${route5}; goto dialstart; }; // DIAL NUMBER (ignoring anything except busy) macro dialout (dialstring) { Dial (${dialstring},,TW); switch (${DIALSTATUS}) { case BUSY: Playtones (busy); Busy (); break; case CONGESTION: Playtones (busy); Busy (); break; }; }; You can then dial from your main dialplan something like this for UK landlines: exten = _0[12]X,1,Macro(outbound,${EXTEN},provider1,provider2,pstn) The dialout macro ignores any responses from the SIP/IAX provider except Busy or Congestion (we have a provider which provides congestion when the dialled number is busy, that's why it's there). So, if the provider's server is unavailable (through qualify=yes or whatever), it'll fall through as channel status unknown and loop onto the next provider. On an outbound call made from one of your users, why would you want a 30 second timeout? Surely you'd want to keep ringing the callee until the caller (i.e. your user) loses interest and hangs up their device? The length of time for a device to be rung before doing something else is usually determined by the recipient, not the initiator. Hope that helps. Regards, Chris -- C.M.

I don't have that package (still using testing's 1.2 package) but I expect the /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf uses mp123 to process the music on hold files. That's not Free software though (and isn't really maintained anymore, I think...), so I don't believe it's included in Debian, though you can get it from http://www.debian-multimedia.org/ if not. You could also just change the musiconhold.conf file I expect. This is on debian etch 4.0 asterisk 1.4, it happens quite often everyday and I have to scroll a lot to try to find other error messages. btw can I just put some musica wav files in /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 ? that would be great to leave asterisk's processor alone You can use pretty much anything, since you can define a decoder in the musiconhold.conf file. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+musiconhold.conf has some more info, though it's pretty confusing since it has info for different versions of asterisk, and some discussion interspersed... -- Jon-o Addleman - http://www.redowl.ca ___ --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] muscionhold error message
I forgot to add that the built-in support for playing mp3s which replaced, for some people, the mp123 program, requires asterisk-addons, which also isn't packaged for debian! There are other possibilities though. I think you could use mp321 plus sox to convert to the proper sound format, for example. -- Jon-o Addleman - http://www.redowl.ca ___ --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

I was ment to remove all that before I posted... Actually, what he's referring to is that posters should start a NEW thread for a new subject. To send a message to the list, click Compose or New or whatever the button is on your particular client (apologies to those using console clients like Mutt) for new messages and enter the list address in the To: field. This means *not* clicking 'reply' to an existing message on the list and then rewriting the subject line (seems like a lot of extra work anyway, doesn't it?) People do this because they can't be bothered to type the list address. That's not hard to solve -- add the address to your address book and create a nickname for it. The reason is that it screws up the message threading. If you are using a threaded reader, or if you are in the archives, you'll have a tree of messages with the original subject line (say, My Asterisk server blew up!) and in the middle of it there'll be something totally unrelated (say, Marmite is good on scones.) Is Marmite also available in Ontario, or only Out West? As far as I know, Marmite is available all across this land, from sea to sea to sea.
