Welcome to a new issue of Asterisk Summer News! The holiday season is coming to an end here in Sweden, people are getting back to work and the kids will start going to school next week. Life is slowly adopting to normal and I have to start dressing more towards a businessman than a beach bum. Guess I have to start going to the gym again as well. Anyway, back to the topic. Asterisk and VoIP.

Thank you very much for all feedback on Asterisk Sunday News! This is the last issue for June. This week I'll go on holiday and will be back with more news in early July. My kids are getting summer leave this week and we'll be visiting the south of England for a while. Another part of Europe that still use their own currency. If you think there's an European standard, you're

Sunday news is today published on a monday. Yesterday was fourth of july, and I used that as an excuse for being off line yesterday. (Sweden's national day is June 6th - and it's not yet a public holiday, btw). Most of my Asterisk time lately have been used for producing the registration site for Astricon and tracking down speakers that haven't sent in their material for the conference

This week, I've been really busy with the launch of a new Swedish Voip provider, www.bbtele.se, so I haven't been able to follow the Asterisk community and haven't been very responsive either. My apologies if you've tried to contact me and I did not reply quickly or at all. So to cover up (can't report on what is happening :-) I dedicate this issue of Asterisk Sunday News to

Dear all, I'm happy to announce the Flash Operator Panel 0.23 release. FOP is a switchboard type application for the Asterisk PBX. It runs on a web browser with the flash plugin.

* Read the config sample files! (even if you're an Asterisk guru) ----------------------------------------------------------------- For those of you that have a working installation that you keep using, this is a reminder to check into the configs/ directory of the Asterisk source tree, regardless if you downloaded a tar ball or from CVS.

Another issue of Asterisk Summer News, delivered right to your mailbox! Back here in Sweden, it's finally summer weather. Sunshine and some heat. It's good for our ice bears and the snow houses to get some sunshine :-) Asterisk development and IRC chat has gone into a lazy summer mode, but the mailing list is still cooking. It's impossible to keep up with it, for both gurus and

I'm trying to get call parking working with the lighted buttons on the SNOM 200. I have set the 5 buttons to "Park Orbit", for extensions 700-704. Pressing the first button (x700) does park the call. However, the remaining buttons (x701-704) don't allow me to pick up parked calls, or show parking status via the LEDs. I can only pick up parked calling by manually dialing the

It looks like chan_sip2 may solve my problem with outboundproxy support. However, I am having problems getting the solution installed. From what I understand these are the tasks... Add chan_sip2 to the channels/Makefile * Rename the file downloaded to chan_sip2.c * make / make install * Change your modules.conf Add "noload=chan_sip.so" if you want to run chan_sip2 * Restart

We finally have solid pricing information as well: 3 Day Asterisk Package $400.00

Spring is back in the Stockholm area. After a few day's worth winter re-runs, the sun is back and night-time temperature is at least 5 degrees celsius. Time to move out all my annual flowers and prepare the garden for summer. Sweden is famous for our annual five week holidays - by law. From june to late august, it's almost impossible to make any business decision, since there's always

Here in Sweden, it's supposed to be springtime. A wonderful time of the year, with sunny skies and wonderful weather. Almost summer. Today, it's not. It's winter all over again with rain and only 3 degrees celsius outside. Better to stay inside and write a weekly Asterisk newsletter :-) This week's topics: ------------------- * Looking beyond Asterisk 1.0/1.1 - what's up? *

I had to do some Googling around yesterday to find out how to use IRC. I thought some basic instructions might be useful on the http://wiki.centos.org/irc page. Here is a draft for your consideration: ===== IRC Instructions for Beginners If you have not used IRC before, this guide will help you get started. You will need an IRC client.

We are happy to present the agenda for the Asterisk conference at the Atlanta Marriot Century Center - Astricon 2004.

The Astricon Conference starts with one day of in-depth tutorials on many levels, both for the new Asterisk user and for the one that considers

In the development tree of Asterisk we've changed two things lately that may affect you: * Asterisk can fail an outbound registration If you enter a register= statement with an incorrect password, wrong hostname or anything else that is wrong, Asterisk will give up registration after 10 attempts. If you do "sip show registry" you will see the registration status as

Hi all, I try since few days to register to FWD with chan_sip2 and always been disconected: peer TOO LAGGED and then peer is now REACHABLE! and so on. Now I restart asterisk with chan_sip and get it work. So for me it's chan_sip2 which is broken,*only with FWD* (at least for me) as I have others SIP providers and it's working fine with them.
