Re: [Astlinux-users] How do I "fork" and then "join" a call

2009-01-03 Thread David
Will the outgoing "legacy" call answer before you join it to the incoming call or will it be in some other state (like ringing). Reason I ask is that I have a couple of macros that do almost what you want to implement privacy manager on my system... Esentially plays a please hold message until a se

Some more info in case anyone else hits this. "Unable , to create channel of type 'Zap' (cause 66 - Channel not implemented)" I hit this error again setting up another system. So, not only does it appear if you have more daughter boards than you have configured in zaptel.conf; you will also get i

Thanks, Lonnie. What I need is to initiate a *separate* *outgoing* call (to the legacy network) that will be joined to the parked call. My understanding is that a Followme() is joined by a user dialing *into* Asterisk to meet the parked call in response to a page. Any ideas ? Brian -Or

After watching this a while I feel that I must weigh in based on my own experience. I've taken an embedded system approach to my Asterisk installation from a time when this was not at all commonplace. My earliest embedded systems were early in 2004. AFAIK Astlinux was the very first distro to be c

I have an unusual call handling requirement, and can use some guidance on how to accommodate this. An incoming call needs to be forwarded to a legacy network with a *very long* set-up delay (10's of seconds). So while initiating call set-up on the outgoing path we want to play a "please hold" mes

I agree about the versioning, but these are just numbers. We have just moved a fairly complex dialplan from 1.4 to 1.6 and it wasn't that big a deal. More of headache actually were changes to the AMI. Mart Rob Hillis wrote: > Martin Rogers wrote: >> Just curious, but rather than wait for 1.4.23,

Just curious, but rather than wait for 1.4.23, wouldn't it be better to head straight for 1.6 ? Thanks Mart Darrick Hartman wrote: > David, > > Remove the setting of PERSISTLOG. We've updated the init script after > 0.6.2 was released. Before if PERSISTLOG was set to anything, it would > log
