Can someone tell me how to get to a mailbox login prompt when accessing the Asterisk VM remotely via a PSTN line? I am running version CSV 8/25/04.

You could dedicate a PSTN line(& phone number) for that purpose. You could
put a menu system(auto-attendant style) and just dial 8500(demo is set for this
exten to be the gateway to VM). Or if your operator answers, have her transfer
your call to 8500.

Larry, I have my extensions.conf set up to wait for a * before ringing the inside phone, like this: [incoming] exten => <number>,1,Answer exten => <number>,2,Ringing exten => <number>,3,ResponseTimeout(2) ; Cover * for voicemail access exten => *,1,VoiceMailMain(1) ; Ring IAXy after ResponseTimeout = 2 sec. exten => t,1,Dial(IAX2/iaxy@iaxy,20) exten => t,2,Voicemail(u1) This way I can dial in and hit * at the first ring to access VM without ringing the inside line. DISA and the like could be achieved similarly.

You could add an extension to your default context that takes you to VM: exten => 500,1,VoiceMailMain exten => 500,2,Hangup Simply include the default context in your incoming context include => default Roger ________________________________ From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com on behalf of Larry Shields Sent: Mon 9/6/2004 12:48 To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' Subject: [Asterisk-Users] VM access Can someone tell me how to get to a mailbox login prompt when accessing the Asterisk VM remotely via a PSTN line?
