Hi, I am a total newbie to asterisk and can't find any useful documentation for asterisk...how are people supposed to get started? I'd like to know, how I create User Accounts, so that a SIP UA can login into asterisk with a password, for example.
Read the documentation, read the sip.conf file. And if it still doesn't make sense try one more time through the documentation and config file. At that point you should at least know enough to ask pointed questions at specific problems in your configs.

What is the best way in getting started evaluating Asterisk? Are there recommendations on the types of card I should be using for an initial eval? Thanks Peter
I'm interested in getting started with * and have some questions that I could sure use some help. Appreciate any and all inputs!!!! 1) Regarding the softphone client - what are the differences between an SIP client such as available from www.xten.com or an IAX client (there are several available)? I want to be able to run from Windows 2000 / XP platforms and also from PDA's (PocketPC). Also, could you recommend softphone client where I can get access to source code for modifications,,,as I want to integrate the softphone into my web services client 2) I'm looking at a Digium Wildcard TE405P - with a T-1 PRI - anyone with experience here and are there any quirks or other issues i should consider? 3) regarding * database - what is the voicemail database (outgoing messages and incoming) and can I ODBC to my separate data servers using SQL 92 standards? 4) For a mid-size installation - regarding hardware configuration - i'm thinking RedHat 9, but unsure about the HDD config . Will i get good performance with IDE mirrored drives versus SCSI RAID?? again, thx in advance for your inputs Kaydon Stanzione kstanzione@advancedlogicsys.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi all Problem with gnophone: I can not make a call. (just hangs) Im am a novice to Asterisk but quite experienced Linux user. I am having some problems with the gnophone. I have tried to isert my user/password but nothing have changed. I have tested the michrophone and it is working. The sound also works. This is my configuration from preference->telephone Use Asterics. Server: iaxtel.com port 10004 (it is a NAT assigned tcp port on the router directed to my PC) Context: iaxtel prefix :<empty> username : my username provided by mail. password : my password peer(optional): my username provided by mail. secret : my password The user/pass-word is the same used to enter this mailing list. What I would like to know is how to fix my problems. Second I would like to know where there is some info for setting up a system. (I have tried to get these but only been able to find "buy a book". Before buying a book I would like to get it work first.) With regards Anders Gnistrup
Hi All; I am starting to know about Asterisk and trying to use it and knowing its functionalities, I hope that here I can find answers for my following questions: 1) Where I can find the PC to Phone software to be used? Does it support G723 codec? If not, then the used codec will need how much bandwidth? What the client OS should be? 2) Does Asterisk Contains PrePaid Billing software? Is there Calling Cards Software? 3) Can Asterisk support H323? Is it stable? 4) Is there SIP to H323 and H323 to SIP convertor? Regards Bilal

I have installed asterisk - hurray! I want to configure, i.e., 800#-------switch---------asterisk---------phone need to create members and callers. Realize I need to configure the dialplan in extensions.conf, however isn't there a checklist that helps coordinate the many extensions of this package so one can find an easy rhythem to its configuration? thanks, Chris
Hi I'm just subscribed to this list because I'd like to try Asterisk I'd like some soggestions for getting started with it I tried to compile source tarball on my mandrake 10.1 but I got compilation error, I think because mdk 10.1 has a too newer gcc compiler I can use older mdk or red hat/fedora distributions, which ones are better and supported by asterisk? I have two IVR boards, a voicetronix openLine4 and a dialogic D41-JCT-PCI, I read somewhere that they are supported by asterisk, how can I use them? if someone has some useful link for starting with asterisk is welcome thanks Luca

Better yet, ditch the Mandrake box and try Asterisk@home for you test machine. -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Tzafrir Cohen Sent: Tuesday, March 08, 2005 10:00 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] getting started On Tue, Mar 08, 2005 at 04:55:30PM +0100, Luca Bariani wrote:> Hi > > I'm just subscribed to this list because I'd like to try Asterisk I'd > like some soggestions for getting started with it > > I tried to compile source tarball on my mandrake 10.1 but I got > compilation error, I think because mdk 10.1 has a too newer gcc > compilerToo new a compiler? Could you post the exact error?

Hi Guys,
Wanted some advice for the docs that you'd recommend someone new to
Asterisk to read. I have a good knowledge of Unix and networking, so
that part shouldn't be a problem.
Cheers,
Sukrit.D.
