I am attempting to use an IAX2 channel between two Asterisk systems. This would seem to be a normal thing to do. I actually want to trunk traffic between the two that are in remote locations. However, I have started with what I think is a simple configuration, which should allow for one way calling. Attached are the pertinent parts of my configuration files. I am attempting to place a call on

What is the difference between the 1.2.x and the 1.4.x branches? I am starting to deploy asterisk from scratch. I expect that I should use the 1.4.x branch, but don't know the rationale for the two. +++++++++++++ This e-mail was checked by the TecInfo Content Scanning Service for potentially harmful content, such as viruses or Spam For more information, call 800.863.5415 or visit

Thanks to all that have helped me so far. I have made a lot of progress. I am able to make prilib and zaptel. Now to Asterisk... After installing the kernel source, I have: # cd /usr/src/linux # make cloneconfig # make prepare-all Then I have run ./configure in the asterisk-1.4.4 directory. I have: # make clean # make Which goes through a number of compiles and then ends

I am installing asterisk on a second box with OpenSuSE 10.2. I have installed libpri, run menuselect/configure and then make. The make stops at the last line shown below. Looking at the processes, the current process is running sed. Not sure from where. Any ideas? ... checking for ar... /usr/bin/ar checking for cp... /bin/cp checking for ln... /bin/ln checking for mkdir... /bin/mkdir

What is recommendation? +++++++++++++ This e-mail was checked by the TecInfo Content Scanning Service for potentially harmful content, such as viruses or Spam For more information, call 800.863.5415

The test system is dual processor, so I am using the beta 4 version. I am currently trying to manually configure, as the GUI does not seem to let me accomplish what I need.

I am new at this. I have read "Asterisk: The Future of Telephony" and have installed AsteriskNOW (beta 4, due to the dual processor problem in beta 5). The GUI interface does not seem to provide the capability that I need, although I have modified the *.conf files to successfully create what I need. Given this, I would like to install Asterisk on a distro. I am most familiar with
