asterisk users - Feb 2005 - * or X100P dropping analog calls

I have a * box running * version 1.0.3 with two X100P line cards in it and Cisco
7960 IP phones.  Everything seems to work pretty well with the exeption that the
system hangs up on phone calls for no apparent reason.  It does this on both
incoming and outgoing calls through the POTS line (currently only have one). 
The only thing in the asterisk console with maximum verbousity is " --
Hungup 'Zap/1-1'" and then the phones act like the other side hung
up.  The only thing that might be related is that I here beeping or chirping
shortly before this happens (it happens randomly thorught calls every couple of
minutes but seems to be more prevelent shortly before a disconnect).

Things we've tried to correct the problem:
-Remove all analog phones from analog line except the X100P
-Got rid of off-brand cards and replaced with authentic X100p's
-Setup 80mm case fan to blow over cards (the behavior seemed to be overheating
related).

Right now the signaling is set to: "signalling=fxo_ks" in the
zapatel.conf file.

Please let me know if anyone else has seen similar behavior (or if you need more
information let me know what).

Thanks,

--Andrew Duey

Yes.  It's frequently caused by busydetect=yes or callprogress=yes in 
/etc/asterisk/zapata.conf

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] I need an interactive automated telephone system
-Is AGI my solution?

Hey Guys,
    I need to create an automated system that will allow people to call in,
enter their code and be able to access all the various features (such as
pre-recorded messages with news, sports...etc).  Also need to be able to
perform tasks based on buttons pressed on the phone.  For example, I need a
server monitoring system where it will say something like "Press 1 for
server load average, Press 2 for Memory usage, Press 3 for HDD usage, Press
4 to reboot the server".  The responses will all be pre-recorded, but I
just
need to be able to interact with asterisk from PHP on the fly.

    I know AGI is a method for languages like PHP to interact with asterisk,
but can it do this kind of stuff?

Gabe

Should be quite straight forward to implement your requirement.
An AGI script using your favourite programming language is a way to go.

We have implement all bits you mentioned so far except interacting with
system statuses.
