Hi, I installed Digiums Free Fax for Asterisk and found out, that it automatically retries failed faxes, is there a way to stop that? Thanks Markus
Hi All, Sorry to hijack this post but I am confused. What is the advantage of using this "Digium Fax For Asterisk" product when you can use Asterisks' 1.6.x module app_fax or Asterisks' 1.4.x agx-ast-addons with the app_txfax and app_rxfax modules?

I will tell you that the hardware fax appliances I have used, commonly called "fax machines" will retry a fax three times before giving up, at least if they get a busy as opposed to a different kind of failure.
Sure - you just need to figure out what number is being dialed, make sure that number rings on the incoming PRI, and make sure the phone system expects that call to come in the standard PRI trunk group and not some dedicated analog craft port. -- Sent from mobile device On May 26, 2009, at 6:05 AM, "Jon Morgan" <jmorgan at c-a- solutions.co.uk> wrote:> Hi All, > > We have an Asterisk 1.4.21.2 box which uses a 2 port Digium card to > bridge > calls, as follows: > > ISDN Provider <---> Span 1(pri_cpe) <---> Span 2(pri_net) <----> Phone > System > > The company that looks after our internal phone system can no longer > dial in > using their data modem in order to maintain the internal phone > system.
