I seem to have stumped myself on this one. I had my son rattle off some really great sound bytes for his own extension (busy, after hours, etc) and that was easy to set up with the dial plan. Now I have his actual VM greeting in a .gsm and no idea how to get it into his VM Greeting, I am guessing that these are not stored where the other sounds are, maybe in the database? I looked through the .pdf book, not many helpful hits on google. Help? :) Nick -- Nick Ellson CCDA, CCNP, CCSP, CCAI, MCSE 2000, Security+, Network+ Network Hobbyist, VFR Private Pilot.
Ok, I did finally find the file structure (/var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/<exten>/*) , but everything is stored in 3 formats with set names, so I bet there is a process that creates all that, if I have just the 8000hz mono .gsm, is there an entry point or program I can feed this file to? The sample I did by recording my own using the Voicemail system: ls /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/4003 INBOX busy.WAV busy.gsm busy.wav greet.WAV greet.gsm greet.wav tmp unavail.WAV unavail.gsm unavail.wav Nick -- Nick Ellson CCDA, CCNP, CCSP, CCAI, MCSE 2000, Security+, Network+ Network Hobbyist, VFR Private Pilot.

Check in /var/spool/asterisk/voicemail/default/<extension number> for
a particular extension, don't know how you want to differentiate after
hours, etc. Also, you can put files in
/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/custom and do with them what you want.

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is:
How do

Ok, I am getting closer on how to choose the files played. I missed this in the book, but VoIP-info had this: s: Play nothing. (no flags): Play instructions. su: Play unavailable message. u: Play unavailable message, then instructions. sb: Play busy message. b: Play busy message, then instructions. In all cases, the beep.gsm file will also be played, prior to starting to record. and it will play the file I want if I rename my file to the stock named in the spool directory.. But as I have been making only .gsm's, am I leaving the VM Box's half-baked? Nick -- Nick Ellson CCDA, CCNP, CCSP, CCAI, MCSE 2000, Security+, Network+ Network Hobbyist, VFR Private Pilot.

Part of the directory as well as when you get to leave that person a VM (instead of saying the user at extension blah blah blah is unavailable it will read back the greeting file) are the 2 places I have heard it so far.
