asterisk users - Jul 2004 - rh9, asterisk HEAD, & asterisk-oh323-0.6.3a working

I have no new information, just a note of encouragement to those
traversing the bowels of h323:

I've been trying to get h323 working with asterisk for several months
now, trying with chan_h323 & chan_oh323 with all kinds of different
combinations.   

As with several folk on the list, I've had no luck.  Either I had no
audio, or I could only receive calls, or I could dial but no had no
audio.  

I finally got it working today with the oh323.  It seems to work
flawlessly in lab settings with both ulaw & g729.  The command line
options for oh323 are odd, but whatever, it works.  

I'm using RH9 w/ a cvs HEAD checkout from "Jul  2 17:54 EST".  
I would post how I did it, but I only followed the README.

I too had difficulty with chan_h323 driver. However, I used chan_oh323
driver and it worked in the second attempt. The trick is to use the
right version on pwlib and openh323 libs. The best way to ensure that is
to get them from the same site where you get the chan_oh323 driver.
Works like a charm if you just followed the README.

If anyone still needs any help, I will be more than willing to do that.

BTW, I am also using RH9.
