Hi, I've got a strange issue, that I haven't found addressed on the wiki. My asterisk box is behind a firewall which routes udp/tcp requests on 5060 and 8000 to asterisk. When I make a call from a Zap or SIP extension on the inside of the firewall to any Zap or SIP extension on the inside of the firewall, everything works find. I have access to voipjet, and when I place a call

I've been working on the local side of asterisk for several days, and I have the in-house dial plan pretty well corn fingered to my satisfaction. Today I began working on the other side to make asterisk do things like place an outgoing call to PSTN and route an incoming call from PSTN. I'm using a TDM11B with a single fxs and a single fxo.

Hi, Is it possible with asterisk to deliver a dialtone to a software phone, such as kphone? I'm able to dial, but the silence seems to confuse my users :) thanks, lane

Hi, KMail crashed because I saved too many asterisk-users messages ... now I have to ask directly, instead of searching in my private archive :) Here's the problem: I'm using MusicOnHold, running mpg123, but I notice that the processes don't die even after the user hangs up.

I had to return my TDM11B because it put the PSTN line 'off hook' the moment I plugged it in and wouldn't hang it up. The new card seems to work because I can actually make an outgoing call from the FXO port to my cell phone, so I'm pretty happy about that. But Asterisk doesn't recognize incoming calls from the PSTN. If I dial my home phone from my cell phone asterisk

Hi, again. I've spent a week trying to get asterisk to work on FreeBSD unix, with some success. Everything works until I plug the box into the TELCO line and then the line goes off-hook and stays that way. So I bit the bullet and decided to install the application on a fresh linux install. Not to start an OS war, here, but linux is ... difficult ... for an old unix hand to get his mind
