For anybody who didn't know there is an article on asterisk in February's Linux Journal. AJ

I have an interesting problem now. I use asterisk to connect to both FWD and a sip provider here in sweden. suddenly, (i know my provider upgraded from a unknown SIP proxy to SER) Asterisk crashes when I try to make a call using this provider. FWD still works fine, and I can call directly towards the GW to POTS without any problems. But, as I call using my providers SER, Asterisk crashes.

Can anyone give me presise instructions on how to compile cdr_mysql.so? When I initially installed asterisk on the system, I didn't have mysql installed. Since then I have installed mysql, created the database and table structure for cdr_mysql and placed the appropriate settings in the cdr_mysql.conf file. However when I do a show modules at the CLI I cannot find cdr_mysql.so.

Hi All, I have an equipment loaded with 4 X100P (numbered 1-4)) and one T400P (numbered 5-8). Everything works fine except that I cannot use one of the FXS ports (number 5). If I configure zapata.conf to recognize it, the whole system voice quality suffers. I've tried already to switch PCI slots, with no results. Below is a snapshot of my /proc/interrupts, maybe this can shed some light on

In taking a cursory browse at Vonage's site today, I noticed they are now offering a soft phone. Has anyone had any experience using this? And does this possibly open new opportunities for using Vonage with Asterisk? Just thinking outloud on the list, soliciting thoughts and experiences from others. AJ

Is there a way to configure voicemail to do reminder paging? I would like to configure some voicemail boxes to send an e-mail message to a pager every 10 minutes until the message is retrieved.

Greetings all, As most of you probably know from my previous questions on the list, I'm still in the newbie category. My question today is pretty brief, as I told you all a few weeks ago I ordered a PRI from Verizon. I understand that there is a "B" channel that comes with this. The question is just what can I use this "B" channel for and how??? Thanks AJ

In speaking to the representative at Verizon, we came to the conclusion that DID numbers were not the correct solution; however we were told by Verizon that they could do something called assign individual numbers to the PRI. What this would in effect do is give us an additional phone number that we would like to route to a specific extension; however unlike the DID number, it would not be

Hello all I just checked out the latest zaptel/zapata/libpri/asterisk/asterisk-addons from the cvs and ran through the entire make procedures. Everything seemed to go fine however now when I attempt to start asterisk, it says ok but it seems to be immediately crashing. The following messages are displayed in my /var/log/asterisk/messages file for the time right around the crash: Dec 29

Can anyone explain to me the difference in zaptel.conf and zapata.conf? I'm trying to get a real clear understanding of them but its getting a little murky in places. I will be setting up a PBX running asterisk with 2 T100P cards. I will be bringing a 23 channel PRI into one card and connecting the other card to a Nortell 24 channel FXS channel bank. As I understand it zapata.conf is

I would like to know how to define the s extension when I have an incoming PRI line? Currently I have 5 incoming DID numbers. Four of these DID numbers I have going to specific extensions, the fifth number which is the main number I wish to go to a background sound where callers can hear message, get directory, dial extension, whatever. I see that the way to normally do this would be to

Hi guys, Having a bit of a problem trying to get conference bridges working. In my meetme.conf file I have the following line [rooms] conf => 6000 In my extensions.conf file I have: exten => 1000,1,MeetMe,6000 My problem is that when I dial into extension 1000 it is telling me "this is not a valid conference number". Can anybody telling me what I'm doing wrong here?

Hello guys Is there anyway for me to change the sounds that are presented in VoicemailMain? For instance, instead of it saying "mailbox", I would like it to say something like "please enter your mailbox number now". Is there a way for me to do this? I also noticed that when in some of the menus, even if I select one of the announced options it simply repeats the same menu

Can anyone provide me with a step by step on how to set up Windows Messenger on a Windows XP Pro box as a SIP client with asterisk? I'm interested in doing various tests of my asterisk server from the Windows perspective of the world. In the alternative if someone could provide information on another Windows based fully functional easy to configure iax or SIP client that would suffice as

DOes anyone have any good suggestions as to good SIP or IAX clients for linux? I have set up and am currently testing asterisk in a controlled environment.

Ok for those of you all up in a tizzy over my subject line, please don't take it literally because I'm certainly not saying that asterisk is the problem here. I just got a little nightmare problem that I need a bit of help figuring out. I installed an asterisk system a few months ago for a client, it has run almost flawlessly with the exception of a few small glitches. However, I got a

Hello All When I open up iaxcomm, it registers fine with the asterisk server. If I call into it, iaxcomm will ring; however if I leave iaxcomm sitting idle for awhile (I haven't figured out exactly how long) it seems to miss calls. I can see the calls coming in on the asterisk server but they never ring through on iaxcomm. If I close it and reopen it, it takes calls again fine. I thought I
