asterisk users - Jun 2004 - Using Asterix and Hylafax with Eicon DIVA E1

Hi,
 I would like to set up a high density FAX/PBX server, am looking at using
Eicon Diva E1 card with Asterisk and Hylafax sharing channels, is this
possible. I know Extensions can be reserved for voice OR fax with the
combination of chan_capi used for * voice, capi4hylafax on fax but then
channels must be dedicated rather than shared ie. would like to be able to
answer voice/fax on same DID. This is high density solution 30channel
FAX/Voice.  Is there a solution which anybody uses which gets round this
limitation. Would also like to hear any usefull comments +/- on an similar
config.

Hi....no answers
     Is anbody using Eicon Diva with * with success or is spansp v. robust
now?  What we would like to do is start of with a pair (for redundancy) of
1U servers using the Eicon Diva's and share the channels between * and
Hylafax, when call volume increases we'll add new 1U servers with digium
quad E1 and migrate the voice calls across, eventually leaving the Diva
servers as pure fax gateways and digium servers as PSTN gways. Is.anyone
using this config with success ? Comments ?

We have both the Eicon Diva Server T1/PRI and Brooktrout TR1034 cards
working well in an integrated Asterisk/HylaFAX environment, yes (plugged
into TE405P). Works very well from our point of view!
