Is it possible in any way to use an Outlook contacts database as the source for the internal Asterisk database that is used for callerid lookups? Thanks!

Hello When using LookupCIDName, Asterisk 1.4 says that it's deprecated, and we should use "${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}" instead, but I don't know how to use it: ;DEPRECATED exten => s,1,LookupCIDName ;ERROR exten => s,1,${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})} I guess I should use this as a parameter to a f...

I'm trying to use LookupCIDName to tag outgoing calls on my CDRs but it seems that application only tags incoming calls? Any sugestions? Leandro

Hello, Sometimes, when a call comes in from the PSTN through our VoIP gateway, the information that is sent to our web page that logs calls includes the original CID name instead of the one that is we expect to be rewritten on the fly using Asterisk's LookupCIDName: ================= ;extensions.conf [internal] exten => group,1,LookupCIDName exten => group,n,AGI(web.agi|${CALLERID(num)}|${CALLERID(name)}) exten => group,n,Dial(${EXT204}) ========= ;/var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin/web.agi #!/usr/bin/perl #use LWP::Simple; use URI::Escape; use LWP 5.64;...

Is there any way to take an incoming callerid string and remove the given "name" part of it and replace it w/ something arbitrary, or add to a blank name string (possibly by looking up the number in a database)? Thanks, John Lawler

...y idea was to use my already enabled callerid asterisk database and lookup the callerid info from it, if it exists consider it a friend and send them to a direct dial context. If the callerid is new, not found, or unknown then send them to the regular menu. This would be done with astdb, gotoif and lookupcidname commands I suppose. Haven't looked into this end of it much yet. My question - is this the best/quickest way of going about this? I am wondering if with many numbers in this database if it will add delay to the call while it looks up to see where it needs to go. I've also seen things lik...

...incapable of sending the time/date to the display. In either case it's annoying for me since I use that as my desk clock! Any solutions would be very welcome. 3. Caller-ID name information is sent with "double quotes" around it, at least when it's fetched from the database using LookupCIDName. This wastes precious display space. 4. There seems to be no way to distinguish between "Out of Area" and "Private/Withheld" in extensions.conf. I see in the zaptel source code that the distinction is available when the data is being read from the line. Since those really are...

I'd like to be able to add additional fields to the the Asterisk database. I'm using Mysql for most of my data lookup and manipulation, and it seems to work pretty well. In keeping with what I know how to do, it would be very handy to be able to insert say a "call forward number" into a customer record. That way, I could automatically route calls to extensions to a forwarded

I am attempting to write in incoming context for calls. 1. If the caller id is given and it is not black listed it will Playback a greeting and then right the phone or go to voicemail under busy or unavailable conditions 2. If no caller id is given, then Privacy Manager will ask for the number. I am testing 6145551212 to see if the black list will work 3. If a caller id is given, and it is
