Do consider Asterisk SVN trunk. At least if this is a home PBX. Specifically The extra timing source stuff might be of direct interest to you. I don't know Asterisk at all so not sure I should try the latest and greatest where I'll never know whether something is broken because I did it wrong or because it's really broken. In that case, latest stable is now branch 1.6.0 (e.g. 1.6.0.5). It was 1.6rc1 That's 1.6.1-rc1 . That is: a release candidate for the branch 1.6.1 . A while before that 1.6.0.5 was released, which is the fifth maintinance release of branch 1.6.0 . about three days ago when I looked . I'd rather stick to something which reached .23 for now. 1.4 is still being maintained, but not sure for how long. 1.6 was rc1 just this week.

Re: Setting up a PBX for Israel-US communication
BTW - About Israeli DID's - I just received an ad from Gizmo5 (I probably registered with them a while ago) advertising their new free SIP-to-Skype gateway. So I went to their web site and found that they offer a callin number for $12/3-months or $35/12-months, which is very close to the lost 077 numbers for $3/month with DIDWW. These are 03 numbers (http://gizmo5.com/pc/network/callin-numbers/). They explicitly support SIP and Asterisk (see the FAQ: http://support.gizmoproject.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase_a=viewarticlekbarticleid=325nav=0). Does anyone have experience with them?

The big caution is that if you do it over WIFI, there is a big chance that it will fail and leave you stuck. If you do it over a wired connection, you should be ok. If it fails you will have a paperweight, so they don't want you to do it and then have to send someone out with a new router.

It's either a bad line or a bad modem. AFAIK we have a switchboard in our village so it shouldn't be a distance problem, could be bad wiring outside the house but the test they ran showed a good connection, so my guess is a bad modem. I'm on cable so I can't bring another modem to test (although that is an idea, maybe I can borrow from a different neighbour). See if you have someone to borrow a modem from to make sure that it is not the modem. What are the simptoms that you are seeing. Is the atm constantly on or does it go out. The moment it disconnects, does attempting to reconnect works or does it take some time.

But is it actually 1000Hz? How can you tell without access to the kernel config? The CPU MHz is 2200. The experiment below was for sampling the clock Asterisk would get OK, I didn't realize that. Will try it later then. Anyway, just did that in a Xen host I have (using Debian Lenny) The Xen kernel does not have CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS set, I could not find a working RTC driver, and HZ is set to 250 . It doesn't necessarily mean that it's the same on my Xen host. As far as I follow it's a per-kernel-compilation setting. 1. Debian :-) (As I package Asterisk for it) I used Debian for over 10 years but now I got used to CentOS (simply because it's so much easier to find hosts which support it for my work needs). I recently looked for unmanaged hosts and there Debian was generally as common as Centos. Most managed hosts used cPanel and alike that I simply can't stand. I can't stand cPanel either. With Debian hosting at least on one place (I think Spry, the parent of VPSLink) I got stuck with an old Debian on a Virtuozo VPS which I can't upgrade without just installing the machine from scratch (I know Debian supports in-place upgrades, but the virtual host setup won't allow this). This is why I go for unmanaged. The box from which I'm writing this got upgraded from Etch to Lenny. Generally each Debian system supports the kernel of the previous distribution. What do you call unmanaged? It's a Virtuozo-style host, so the kernel is dictated by the hosting env. The VPSLink service I have is Xen so although they control the kernel I can pick one of few and probably switch to a new one. It was 1.6rc1 That's 1.6.1-rc1 . That is: a release candidate for the branch 1.6.1 . A while before that 1.6.0.5 was released, which is the fifth maintinance release of branch 1.6.0 . OK, I missed that. about three days ago when I looked . I'd rather stick to something which reached .23 for now. 1.4 is still being maintained, but not sure for how long. 1.6 was rc1 just this week. Are you saying that once I decide to go with Asterisk I also have to keep close chase of their latest release in order to have it supported (i.e. bug and security fixes)? The closest thing I found for describing it is: http://www.asterisk.org/node/48539 At the moment 1.4 is still supported, but I'm not sure I'd use it for new installations. Thanks for the pointer. It looks like the relevant sentence was cut in the middle: With Asterisk 1.4, once Asterisk 1.4.N is released, Asterisk 1.4.X is no longer supported, where X http://downloads.digium.com/pub/telephony/asterisk/asterisk-1.6.0.tar.gz; ? Since then 1.4.23 has been published, and I saw a number of fixes scheduled for 1.4.24 . -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzaf...@jabber.org | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il || a Mutt's tzaf...@cohens.org.il || best ICQ# 16849754 || friend ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
Linux spam on wikipedia.
FYI and FWIMC, I just removed two links from the Hebrew Wikipedia article Linux that pointed to a little consultancy firm called Jaya who seems to be all into SAP and hates RHAT for some odd reason. The website seems two weeks old, based on the Forum entries. Times are tough, competition is fearce, but spamming is not an option. If anyone asks you about Jaya, The Linux Group, Miky Barzilay or the little community conference he's organizing, just give them a heads up. It may be a legitimate, professional business, but the guy practices dirty marketing, so he's got a black point in my book. BTW, his links box hints he's cooperating with Hamakor, What'sup, Penguin, IGLU and others. umm -- Barman!

Re: Linux spam on wikipedia.
Here is what they posted about two weeks ago - http://whatsup.org.il/modules.php?op=modloadname=Newsfile=articlesid=6258 Jaya is the same of linux-israel. Don't look too confused, I don't know anyone who is using their website, but seems that someone actually using their services. Still, I am agreeing with you that they should not place link to thier website in Wikipedia unless it is really worth it. P.S., exteranl links in Wikipedia are always nofollow'ed. Tomer.
