Re: [asterisk-users] Segmenting A Configration File
One of my clients uses thirdlane. The web interface is clean and nice, but asterisk completely locks when one of the client change the config and reloads during peak hours. It is possible my client uses an old version or hasn't applied all the patches or hasn't configured asterisk in the right way or the underlying hardware is not enough powerful, but I'd not suggest it to manage over than few hundred peers. I have seen several software solutions, all configuration file based and they all have the same problem. They locks asterisk on reload, so you'll end not altering the configuration during peak hours and you'll avoid giving the clients the ability to change their config. The only key solution is to have a completely realtime version. Leandro 2012/8/12 Carlos Rojas crt.ro...@gmail.com Hi Have you seen thirdlane? Thirdlane has a multitenant version.

Having all the tenant configurations in one configuration file is overwhelming. I would like to segment the configuration files and include them in the main configuration file. Is it possible? For e.g. I would like to have the main extenstions.conf file to include tenant01_extenstions.conf, tenant02_extensions.conf. By this way it is easy to manage the configurations of each tenant. We put each tenant's sip and extensions config files in /etc/asterisk/accounts and then do an include for that directory in the main files. We keep all the voicemail.conf in one because changes to passwords will NOT be saved to included files. We used to use includes for voicemail but that meant no password changes. The main file has a list of all phone numbers in the system in numerical order where we set the account name, and then we send them to the proper context like this: exten = 12015551212,1,Set(CDR(accountcode)=johnsmith) exten = _X.,n(cont),Goto(${CDR(accountcode)}#did,${EXTEN},1) There's a bunch of other stuff in there where we do line counting and such. -- Carlos Alvarez TelEvolve 602-889-3003 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Debian 7/Asterisk TLS bug and others

In fact, most of the work is done by Tzafrir. I'm not referring to the actual packaging processes, but just the general strategy For example, if wheezy is released at Christmas, it could be the current version for 2 years (until end of 2014) and then another year of security updates (until end of 2015). Anyone using Debian during that period will come across Asterisk v1.8.13 It raises various issues: - with TLS use likely to grow over that time, will the problems in the current version become noticed by many more people? - will general security updates for 1.8.x continue up to at least 2015? I've raised a bug report in Debian about the general state of the TLS support and to see if it is appropriate for the long lifespan of packages in Debian - any comments on this would be really welcome http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684649 -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] best free fax solution with asterisk
James is this inbound or outbound faxing that is running at 95%. We see about 94% success on inbound faxes, but were not satisfied with that so we started doing some research into the issue to find that the bulk of the fails were actually voice calls, or robo dialers calling fax numbers. Once we threw out those we get about 98% The last 2% include some calls that might not have been faxes, but we were not able to eliminate all of them. Out bound runs at about 98% success.
