Hi For a customer, I am trying to setup 3 different companies on one asterisk box, and I need to assign extension 200 in three different companies. I was using different contexts, but was unable to get it to work. So, my basic question is - In Asterisk, Can we have same extension number in different contexts? For example: [Context_company_1] exten => 200,1,,,

I have a new Asterisk system going into production next week and I'm a bit stumped as to the best way to handle the Dialplans for it. The Asterisk system is replacing 4 separate PSTN lines with both SIP & PSTN inputs. The setting up of the dial plan is giving me some design headaches, which probably means I'm missing something obvious and doing this the hard way. I have separate

If I have a global variable in my dialplan and I change it, does that change immediately take affect for all calls that are active? Here is my situation. The company I work for has two office groups that share a building. The two offices are separate companies but support one another and want to be able to transfer calls as if they were all on the same phone system. Each company has 4

We are running our * server as a virtual PBX for 6 companies. I am having all of the Allison prompts plus our own custom IVR prompts being re-recorded for each company, in a different voice (marketing thing) with a different personality (perky, corporate, earthy) . I'm curious if someone could point out a dirty trick to get the voice to play right, for internal and external callers,

Greetings, I need if possibile an explanation on how to manage the incoming callerid for an incoming call. Let me explain the situation: We have two different companies in this office that shares the same PBX (* box). Each company have its own number for the incoming calls. What i'd like to implement is something that, depending on the incoming line that is involved in the call, plays a

Can I configure Samba4 in such a way that I have two separate **forests** on a single machine? let?s say one for CompanyA and other for companyB? So essentially does Samba4 support multiple server instances like Samba3 as described here http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Multiple_Server_Instances? If it does not yet, are there any known blockers in supporting this or it?s just a question of time

I've got a need to do something like the following: [foo-context] exten => _.,1,SetCIDNum(123) exten => _.,2,SetCIDName(XYZ) include => local include => tollfree But of course, this example won't work. The goal here is this: if a call ends up being handled by the "local" or "tollfree" contexts, I want those SetCID*** commands executed. Otherwise, I

I'm using Asterisk 1.0.9, a Digium TE210P dual T1 card, and two Rhino channel banks (one 12FXO/12FXS, the other 24 FXS). So it's an analog phone on the inside connected to one of the FXS ports, and PSTN line connected to one of the FXO ports. My problem is that as soon as I hear the _first_ ring when I dial out through the PSTN line, I hear a tiny echo on the phone (I estimate between

Good day When trying to add an 'Other Locations' in Nautilus CentOS 7.5, Nautilus always 100% of the time crash with a kernel error. Here is a short video showing the workflow: https://youtu.be/dPmTDBRqL_I This did not happen in 7.4 Both 7.4 and 7.5 runs on VirtualBox 5.2.12 - but as stated before, this did not happen in 7.4 I also did a fresh clean install of both

Good day all, [Dovecot version 1.2.1] I've set up postfix and dovecot on Centos. I have a problem with the mail, it is begin received but not "processed" by dovecot. I've looked in the maillog file and found two problems; the first is that private/dovecot directory (I think it should be a directory) did not exist and the second problem is "mail transport

Hey gang, Getting ready to run some test bills for customers. Most SIP phones have both an extension and a DID. If a person calls a DID asterisk redirects the call to the right extension: exten => 8005551212,1,Goto(companyA-internal,3022,1) The problem is, that if someone calls 8005551212, the CDR shows the DST number as 3022. Is there a way around this? I understand that 3022 is the

And your chipset is not exactly cutting edge stuff. Are there any errors in the logs - either kernel logs or X logs? For some reason you say you

Pardon me, but I forgot to add that right after this crash, htop as root shows the VBoxClient service running maxed on one core until system is rebooted. Not sure if it is CentOS bug or VirtualBox bug because this did not happen in 7.4 on same version of VirtualBox, and unfortunately I don't have access to a bare metal machine on which to install and test. -----Original Message----- From:

Anyone know if there's a way to match a dialplan extension, execute some code, say set a variable, and then continue with the dialplan? I want to set a variable when the dialplan flows beyond a certain context. This would be a great feature. Doug.

Hi Everyone, I have a query which I hope others may find interesting as well. The company that I work for has users that subscribe to many different mailing lists for marketting and informational purposes. What I would like to be able to do is centrally manage this internally so that only one copy of the message is received regardless of the number of people subscribed to each list which we

Hi all, Slowly but surely moving forward, I hope... I get the following error (in the maillog file) after I've installed Managesieve: *Aug 13 10:13:52 li73-31 dovecot: deliver(andre at paranoidandroid.co.za): Fatal: setgid(501(paranoidandroid)) failed with euid=104(vmail), gid=106(vmail), egid=106(vmail): Operation not permitted* /Does anybody know what this means and how to fix it?/

I'm having trouble finding documentation for the auto attendant does anyone have an idea where there might be some???

Anyone have a user configured auto attendant setup? Something that can be used without the * admin helping to make changes. Something where the operator can record the message like 'press 1 for john, 2 for bill, 3 for jean' and then the operator can enter the extension that gets dialed when the caller presses 1 or 2 or 3? This would be useful if Bill leaves the company, the operator can

We've been playing with Asterisk with an eye towards possibly replacing or augmenting our existing PBX serving about over 600 phones (and needing to expand). The one missing bit that I can't find any mention of is an Attendant Console. Are there any good solutions out there? I've considered that maybe one of the better softphones might suffice, but the ones I've looked at so far

Using asterisk@home 1.1 and 1.3 ip phones are on the same network as asterisk. I can call another extension and talk/listen w/ no problem. If i dial my own extension (or do anything that makes asterisk play sounds back to me ) I cannot hear anything. this is what shows up in the CLI, when i dial my own extension. -- Goto (macro-vm,s-BUSY,1) -- Executing
