similar to: outgoing callerid string

Can anyone explain to me the difference in zaptel.conf and zapata.conf? I'm trying to get a real clear understanding of them but its getting a little murky in places. I will be setting up a PBX running asterisk with 2 T100P cards. I will be bringing a 23 channel PRI into one card and connecting the other card to a Nortell 24 channel FXS channel bank. As I understand it zapata.conf is

Hello all I just checked out the latest zaptel/zapata/libpri/asterisk/asterisk-addons from the cvs and ran through the entire make procedures. Everything seemed to go fine however now when I attempt to start asterisk, it says ok but it seems to be immediately crashing. The following messages are displayed in my /var/log/asterisk/messages file for the time right around the crash: Dec 29

Hi, I am trying to do the world's most simple install. I have a Wildcard TDM400P with 3 ports: 1 FXS on port 1 and 2 FXOs on ports 3 and 4. (i'm not using port 3 for now, put want it for expansion purposes) I simply (to start with) am looking to have the FXS phone ring when an FX0 port is dialed. I would also like to be able to place outgoing calls on the FXS through the FXO. Right

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all! I'm testing a telephone connected to FXS port of a Sangoma A200 card. But I'm observing that callerid is not working. The configuration that I'm using in chan_dahdi.conf is the following one: - --------------------------------------------------------------------- ;autogenerated by /usr/sbin/wancfg_dahdi do not hand edit

Hi, I have a weird situation where I have a noop command putting the callerid of the caller on my asterisk console so I know who is calling as a test, but it is putting the callerid of my extension in instead of the callerid of the incoming line. My /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf is [channels] context=default ;switchtype=national usecallerid=yes cidsignalling=v23 cidstart=polarity hidecallerid=no

Can anyone give me presise instructions on how to compile cdr_mysql.so? When I initially installed asterisk on the system, I didn't have mysql installed. Since then I have installed mysql, created the database and table structure for cdr_mysql and placed the appropriate settings in the cdr_mysql.conf file. However when I do a show modules at the CLI I cannot find cdr_mysql.so.

In speaking to the representative at Verizon, we came to the conclusion that DID numbers were not the correct solution; however we were told by Verizon that they could do something called assign individual numbers to the PRI. What this would in effect do is give us an additional phone number that we would like to route to a specific extension; however unlike the DID number, it would not be

Does anyone know what the Grandstream Budgetone is going for $$$ in the US? I didn't immediately see pricing on the phones page. AJ

Hi all, I've been trying to wrap my mind around this one for several days now. How can I 'debug' the CallerID reception on a Zap/POTS channel? I have a POTS line with CallerID and a Digium TDM11B card right now. I have my signalling set to ks for both sides, can make and receive calls just fine. But I never get CallerID on incoming calls. I get the following messages: Aug 11

Hi, I'm just starting out with Asterisk, in combination with a TDM400, filled with 2 FXS on channels 1 and 2, and 1 FXO on 4. Having just started, all I want right now is to be able to answer incoming calls on a phone connected to channel 1. The trouble is the caller id. I have caller id enabled on my line, my phone supports it, and when I connect the phone directly to the line, it works.

In taking a cursory browse at Vonage's site today, I noticed they are now offering a soft phone. Has anyone had any experience using this? And does this possibly open new opportunities for using Vonage with Asterisk? Just thinking outloud on the list, soliciting thoughts and experiences from others. AJ

For anybody who didn't know there is an article on asterisk in February's Linux Journal. AJ

Hi, I just upgraded by 1.0.x home server to 1.2.2. Overall the upgrade went fine, but a strange problem has cropped up with the CALLERID name value of incoming calls from the X101P card. When an incoming call is presented (via Vonage ATA), the calledid value getting double quotes up from: -- Executing NoOp("Zap/1-1", """WIRELESS CALLE" <1404xxxxxxx>") in

I would like to know how to define the s extension when I have an incoming PRI line? Currently I have 5 incoming DID numbers. Four of these DID numbers I have going to specific extensions, the fifth number which is the main number I wish to go to a background sound where callers can hear message, get directory, dial extension, whatever. I see that the way to normally do this would be to

Hello guys Is there anyway for me to change the sounds that are presented in VoicemailMain? For instance, instead of it saying "mailbox", I would like it to say something like "please enter your mailbox number now". Is there a way for me to do this? I also noticed that when in some of the menus, even if I select one of the announced options it simply repeats the same menu

Dear List, My problem is that the incoming Caller Id is not displayed on the local analog phones (connected to a TDM400 card). I receive the CID correctly from my telco, but when I place the call to the internal analog line, the CID is not propagated. An interesting point: when I try to place a new call to an already bridged line, I see the second call with the CID on the analog phone. The

Hi I was using the delivered Ubuntu 1.6.x packages but I wanted to look at gtalk integration so I downloaded, compiled and installed the source (after removing the Ubuntu packages) have installed the following: asterisk-1.8.0 dahdi-linux-complete-2.4.0+2.4.0 libpri-1.4.11.5 I copied my config back into place and most seems to work, but I cannot get my phone that is plugged into the Wildcard

Greetings all, As most of you probably know from my previous questions on the list, I'm still in the newbie category. My question today is pretty brief, as I told you all a few weeks ago I ordered a PRI from Verizon. I understand that there is a "B" channel that comes with this. The question is just what can I use this "B" channel for and how??? Thanks AJ

I've got a bit trouble with callerid and zaphfc cards. Basically zaphfc doesn't add the "0" in front of national numbers (haven't tried a international call yet). With chan_capi that allways worked fine, however i had to define the national and international prefixes in capi.conf. Is there something similar in zapata.conf ? Here is my zapata.conf: [channels]

I have an interesting problem now. I use asterisk to connect to both FWD and a sip provider here in sweden. suddenly, (i know my provider upgraded from a unknown SIP proxy to SER) Asterisk crashes when I try to make a call using this provider. FWD still works fine, and I can call directly towards the GW to POTS without any problems. But, as I call using my providers SER, Asterisk crashes.
