Can I run Windows 7 Internet Explorer in Wine? Firefox for Linux Mint has failed to take my passwords and user info. Thank you. Larry

I'm new to the list and to Wine. I loaded wine wine-0.9.7-i486-S10.2 into Slackware 10.1 in order to run the Forte Agent newsreader. It was setup and running under Win4lin which I have discontinued. What would be the syntax to load Forte Agent and specify the old "start-in" directory used under Win4lin? wine ./agent something_for_start-in_directory ?? Does Wine have the

It _appears_ that the only way to create valid [context] is by a context = line in sip.conf. Is there another way to create a [new_context] in extensions.conf so I can dial from it? Right now most of my extens are in [default] and I'd like to avoid that. Larry -- Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX Using Thunderbird on Slackware Linux

Does Wine have the ability to run DOS .com files? Specifically I wish to run 4dos.com which is a command.com replacement. Larry -- Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX Using Thunderbird on Slackware Linux

Problem: SPA3000 phone does not ring for incoming PSTN call although I can dial out. I set up my Sipura with the Voxilla Wizard which is pretty good but leaves out some important details. The Voxilla Wizard for Supura SPA3000 gave me a setting for PSTN Tab -> Dial Plans -> Dial Plan 8 (<S0:66610>) Should I put extension [66610] in sip.conf with a context in extensions.conf that

I have a sip.conf with stanzas for sip phones that have 'context=sip-incoming for some Grandstream phones and another stanza for a Sipura SPA3000 with context=pstn-incoming. Reviewing the code today, I was dismayed to see that all my outgoing extens were mixed into those two. I have been told this is very insecure. How can I separate the outgoing extens? When I create a context

I have a Slackware Linux box called Tillie with three shares. All at /, user at /home/user and public at /public which is "guest ok" for access without a password. The problem is that Tillie shows up in Windows Network Neighborhood as a single icon. To open that icon and see the three shares Windows demands a password, thus making it impossible to access. Is there any way to get

I'm trying to update a bunch of downloaded files from a mounted older disk. This command works from the Kterm command line or in a script: rsync -nuv /mnt/kinda2/home/lba/dl/* /home/lba/dl and a list of the files to be updated appears on the screen. But this line (without a tailing * in source) does not work: rsync -nuv /mnt/kinda2/home/lba/dl/ /home/lba/dl and I get the

I greatly appreciate the help at last Monday's installfest and especially am grateful to Chris and Lenny. Now I am reconfiguring the installfest computer to add Zaptel using the instructions at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Zaptel+Installation There is now a Digium 4 port card installed. In regards to Zaptel there are some questions on zconfig.h. Should I: #define

I would like to access my shell environment variable MYIP from within sip.conf to put in externip. I've tried some variations of syntax after reading "The Future of Telephony" but it's not working yet. Should it be externip=${ENV{$MYIP}} or some other syntax??

I have a working Asterisk 1.2 and Sipura SPA3000 combo but I would like to have more control over incoming PSTN calls to the Sipura. Right now such calls come in over the fxo port (sipurafxo1 on the PSTN tab) and are routed by dial plan 8 to the fxs port (sipurafxs1 Line 1 tab) I'm not even sure if the calls are getting to the fxs port and they sure are not going to the specified context.

I would like to show a remark that would show call progress and appear on the CLI screen. The remark should be in the code of a sip [channel] or extentions [context] If I can't send my own remark, what little used 'show' command could I insert in the code? Can this be done? -- Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX Using Thunderbird on Linux

I have over 12 sip trunks that are very similiar, like extension 412 below. Is there any way to have a single variable in [general] that contains the 7 lines after 'username=412'? This would reduce clutter in sip.conf. I don't want to put these common lines in [general]. What I have now repeated 12x: [412] username=412 context=default type=friend qualify=yes insecure=very

I am trying to page my Grandstream GXP-2000 phones and keep getting the error message: Jan 27 12:55:04 WARNING[30401]: app_page.c:183 page_exec: Incomplete destination '' supplied. How can I fix this error? The two contexts below do either one-way paging or two-way paging to all Grandstream phones in a list. [One_Way_Page_GROUP] ; one to many page exten =>

Is it possible for a template to know the extension number in sip.conf? In the example extension below, I'd like to _not_ have to type the lines username=410 and callerid=410 in each extension. Instead, the template should be able to pick up the extension name from the [410] extension specified. In the [grandstream] template example below, I'd like to specify in the template that it

I wish to have my Grandstream GXP-2000 phones make a different distinctive ring for internal calls ( Internal ) or if the incoming call has no caller id 'NOCID'. The Grandstream phones calls allow 3 distinctive rings depending on the caller id. I have one set up and working for 'Internal' calls but unfortunately the same tone will ring if caller id is absent on a call. My

How can I access an environmental variable in Asterisk 1.2.5? It should be possible according to: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+variables which says: Environment Variables You may access unix environment variables using the syntax: ${ENV(foo)} ${ENV(ASTERISK_PROMPT)}: the current Asterisk CLI prompt. ${ENV(RECORDED_FILE)}: the filename of the last file saved by the Record

I'm looking for a device that will announce sounds from other devices to Asterisk to be heard on my Grandstream sip phones throughout the house. The Grandstream phones are already set up for ammouncements by pressing a dial code. I need a device that will detect and play sounds automatically from other devices such as a talking clock, driveway sensor or other home automation devices like

I would like to log a verbose statement in my 900/976 extens to a special file called 'attacks'. These are not standard messages like debug, notice, warning, error, vebose or dtmf that could be logged to /var/log/asterisk/messages. Does the 'verbose' in VERBOSE commands have anything to do with the 'verbose' in error messages? I tried >> redirection of a

Presently I have _all_ 900 calls blocked in Asterisk 1.25 but today I had to call a parts vendor at a 972 number. What are the "safe" 900 numbers - meaning the ones that are not sex lines that change by the minute? Larry -- Larry Alkoff N2LA - Austin TX Using Thunderbird on Linux
