Hello list, I am looking for a way to have multiple remote Windows users download a package and get connected to *. My idea would be that they run a simple app, it connects without any setting to an * box (maybe via IAX) and then people press a button to talk. It would be okay if they had to enter a username and password, but not more than that. Looking for such software, I keep finding how much easier for a non-technical end-user is to download skype and have it running than downloading a softphone, creating an account, configuring the softphone and then dialing the required number. Having a way to use skype as a terminal would be nice, but I fear it's impossible by now (see http://www.skypejournal.com/blog/archives/2005/03/skype_strategy.php ). So, anybody has experience of something that could be used, repackaged, modified or you-know-what that could be helpful in this case? And don't you think a IAX intercom could be somehow useful? :-) Bye l. -- Assum est, versa et manduca.
What you are looking for is a pc2phone dialer. This can be preconfigured with all settings and when it connects to your * it ask for username and password or just a pin. There are many of these out on the net. Most is however locked to a provider but you will also find many that you can buy with your settings in them.

This still would not handle instant-messaging.> > Looking for such software, I keep finding how much easier for a > non-technical end-user is to download skype and have it running than > downloading a softphone, creating an account, configuring the softphone > and then dialing the required number.

And don't > you think a IAX intercom could be somehow useful? :-)iaxcomm is a start. Not the best in terms of usability, but a start. You could hard-wire the server and make the accounts setup dialog a bit firendlier. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzafrir@jbr.cohens.org.il | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzafrir@cohens.org.il | | best ICQ# 16849755 | | friend

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/CID+Issues+with+some+Siemens+DECT+phones+in+France OMG I posted something useful???? But it was someone on the list here who gave me that solution
I have configured the voicemail.conf file as per the wiki to email voicemails as an attachment. I cannot find any instructions/locations to set the outgoing server login information. Furthermore, I can get no emails from asterisk. Can anyone point me to the next step to setup the attachment of voicemail messages to an email? Thanks BEN
