I have a group of users whos complaint about Asterisk is that the directory application is too hard too use. (yeah, yeah, I know. For the record, they're Calgarians) Now I'm in a pickle: I don't want to have to create a custom directory for these guys. Anyone have any tips for making the directory easier, maybe re-record the prompts so they are more verbose? We go by first name.

Anyone here running asterisk on openvz, if so what are your experiences? Right now we are trying to tune out the resources for the difference VEs, but not with a whole lot of luck. Just wondering if someone watching could shed some like on what has worked for them, and how many exts/simultaneous calls etc are happening.

Hello, I wonder how Asterisk scales when we increment the Core's or CPU's of one computer. I see that Asterisk is only one process (I guess that it uses threads). But because Asterisk is only one process, this process is always executed in the same CPU. So we can have a 8 Cores server, with one Core running Asterisk, another Core running operating system stuff/other small daemons and 6

I have asterisk up and running on a fedora system but having trouble accessing system via softphone (ekiga and xlite). Im a newbie to asterisk and was looking for some help walking through this. I imagine 10 - 15 mins would be all needed to make proper config changes needed. Once I get this setup I'd be interested in discussing customizations and scripts so any freelancers or companies welcome

Anyone have opinions on how well Asterisk scales to 500-1000 stations, in regards to reliability, system performance, as well as ease of management? Assume relatively low call volume; let's say two public network PRIs (47 DS0s). -- # Jesse Molina # The Translational Genomics Research Institute # http://www.tgen.org # Mail = jmolina at tgen.org # Desk = 1.602.343.8459 # Cell =

I could have sworn I saw a post about this recently but I can't find it so apologies if this is a dupe, but is there anyway to control the order in the Polycom Buddies list?

Tried to submit this email this morning and didn't see it in the list. I apologize if it is a dupe. I've inherited a customized Asterisk installation. After the past time change all clocks in my office are behind by one hour. After some digging it appears we have: A /tftproot/sip.conf that is being pushed out to our phones. I found the following line that seems to be what controls

I'm running into an issue w/ Buddy status on Polycom IP650 phones using buddy status (with SIP Hints) on Asterisk 1.4. Sometimes the status on the phones will "stick" in the busy status. I have noticed that I can call that extension & the status will reset (sometimes). Anyone else encountered this or anything similar. -Chris

All calls through the system are being dropped when they are bridged (Asterisk, Linux, pure VoIP system). The calling party here's half of the word 'hello' for instance and the call is dropped. I've noticed that hangup() was being called for some time now when the call was bridged, but the call was still continuing. Any thoughts on where to start debugging? Jason

I have Asterisk 1.2.13 installed as a Debian package and I edit only sip.conf and extensions.conf in this way: sip.conf: [general] realm=work.com.ar ; Realm for digest authentication bindport=5060 ; UDP Port to bind to (SIP standard port is 5060) bindaddr=0.0.0.0 ; IP address to bind to (0.0.0.0 binds to all) srvlookup=yes

Every once in a while for no apparent reason, Asterisk has been dying on me, dropping all calls in progress. There's nothing in the log file or on the Asterisk console that indicates the reason. Some days it doesn't happen at all. Other days it happens two or three times. The problem began on Friday, but the last time anything was changed on that box was at least a week before that.

As you may have heard, Digium announced this morning that it's acquired Switchvox, a well known provider of Asterisk-based phone systems. Since several people have already asked me about the deal, I figured I'd let you all know my feelings on the matter. First of all, let me say that I personally think this is a great thing for all the parties involved. Obviously this gives Digium a

Anyone had any experience with an Asterisk server as a VMWare virtual machine?

Greetings list, Does anyone have any experiences they'd like to share deploying these phones in medium-size asterisk setups, e.g. 40+ users? I have a project coming up to deploy 100 phones over 2 offices and the client rather likes these phones. Are there any obvious pitfalls/configuration difficulties/quality issues etc. using these phones? If so, what alternatives would people suggest with

Hi all, I am attempting to build a horizontally scalable Asterisk deployment and am getting very close to achieving that goal. With Asterisk 1.4 I now have an IMAP backend for Voicemail messages which is great as users can check the same messages either through the voice portal or using Webmail. However, I'm not sure the best way of dealing with personalised greetings such as a

Hi, I've been asked for a headset recommandation for Polycom SoundPoint IP phones. Since I believe they use a pretty standard headset jack (correct me if I am wrong) it's really a general recommandation on headset.
