Hi All, I'd appreciate some help on how to implement "call stealing". That is, where you dial a code to redirect any call on the system to your handset. I'm getting rid of my BRI service and I'm trying to replace the functionality of my existing ISDN2e PBX (Cybergear Gold) with VOIP and Asterisk. On my ISDN PBX, the short-code *46 does this. For example, if I take a call on

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 CentOS 5 My ISP account includes nearly 500 minutes of VOIP calls per month but the service is expensive for unbundled minutes. So I'm trying to find a way to keep an accumulated total of calls made through that trunk so that I can automatically switch to a lower-cost provider when my bundled minutes are used. The plan is to store the accumulated time in AstDB and

Has anyone used samba v2.0 to share pooled modems. I have a large pool of identical modems available as a single TCP service on a terminal server with Samba running under HP-UX 10.20 . Any ideas how to make this modems an accessible share for Windows 95 clients Reply to jcort@medisys.co.uk

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 I'm trying to increment an AstDB key with the length of the last outgoing call. Here's what I've got for "01" UK geographical numbers: exten => _01.,1,Dial(${UKGeographical}/${EXTEN},,g) exten => _01.,n,Log(NOTICE,Call to ${EXTEN} lasted ${DIALEDTIME}) exten => _01.,n,Set(CALLTIME=${DIALEDTIME}) exten =>

Hi All, I'm looking for a way to filter the AstDB cidname family to show only those entries with a specified area code in the Asterisk CLI. If this were a SQL database it would be something like: SELECT number, name FROM cidname WHERE number LIKE '1234%' I've tried "database show cidname 1234*" and substituted "%", "$", "-" for the wildcard

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 Yesterday and today I got the following warnings in /var/log/asterisk/messages: WARNING[2066] chan_sip.c: Got authentication request (401) on unknown REGISTER to '<sip:account at sip.voipuser.org>;tag=d8f15e1f30efddd35168b07dba9d540e.3922' The corresponding bits in sip.conf are: register =>

Hi All, I need to use partial matches on the CIDNAME family I have stored in AstDB. For example, an organisation might have several numbers with the same area code and the same first few digits: 1234 567890 1234 567889 1234 567824 ... I'd like to store these (e.g.) as CIDNAME/12345678* (where "*" is a wildcard) so that I can retrieve the organisation name from

Hi All, I'm using PrivacyGuard to filter calls from withheld numbers. A few percent of incoming calls from my BT landline where I know the caller does not withhold their number. BT deny that they're not passing CLI from all calls. In /var/log/asterisk/messages, the following three lines preceed every such call so far: [Jul 11 11:52:28] NOTICE[23198] chan_dahdi.c: Got event 18 (Ring

Hi All, I'm running Asterisk 1.4.22.1 on a CentOS 5 machine fitted with a TDM400P. When I upgraded from Asterisk 1.2.12.1, Zap stopped working. Doing "zap show channels" etc from the Asterisk CLI results in an error saying there's no such command. The machine has Zaptel 1.2.9.1, which I've tried to repair with make clean, make linux26, then make install but to no avail so I

Hi All, I'm confused! My Asterisk system has a Zap trunk and three SIP trunks. I'd like to configure the dialplan to route via the first trunk in a list and if that's not available or it's busy, fall over to the second, then to the third, etc. AIUI Dial(Zap/1&SIP/out1&SIP/out2/${EXTEN}) rings all the trunks in the list and bridges to the first to answer. Unfortunately,

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 I'd like to be able to look up each incoming CLI to retrieve an associated name, if available, and then pass that to the extensions so that they can see both the name and number of the caller. I'm not after LDAP or anything else maintained externally, just a contact lookup for my system. I suspect that Astdb could be used for this, as could a

Hi All, Asterisk 1.4.12 on CentOS 5 Sorry for a question that I'm guessing is obvious to most of you. I'm trying to revamp my dialplan. When I first created it, I had something like: exten => s,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}) exten => s,2,Dial(${rgMain},${RINGTIME},t) exten => s,3,VoiceMail(main at default) exten => s,103,VoiceMail(main at default)
