Admittedly this is probably pretty stupid of me, but there are just some things I can't understand by reading documentation. Any suggestions or recommendations about how to handle my problem are greatly appreciated. I'm trying to achieve the same functionality as my Nortel PBX, without rewriting much 'C' code. In my dialplan I'd like to compare two variables as a means of

Hi all, So I have been reading through the docs available online and the different threads on this list, but I cannot seem to get this phone to work. I have configured the OS79XX.TXT and SIP/SEP*.cnf files (see attached), when I configure the phone to point to my tftp server and reboot it I get this message: Connection received from 10.6.0.224 on port 50608 [09/02 12:16:11.750] Read request

I'm having a problem with the callerID that the polycom IP600 phones are displaying. I would like to modify the CIDName and leave CIDNumber as exactly what the phone call came in as(provided they aren't hiding callerID). Most of the calls will be going to the queue, but a few will go directly to the SIP phones. I've done a various combinations of using SetCallerID(),

Hi, I am setting up a hylafax server. From what I've read so far, hylafax supports CID numbers and names but currently does not support DID. I assume I can do something like this... [40faxDIDs] exten => _87[5-8]X,1,SetVar(CALLERIDNAME=${EXTEN}) exten => _87[5-8]X,2,Dial(Zap/g${hylafaxMODEMGROUP}) ...and use the CIDName variable in hylafax to route the faxes to the appropriate

I don't succed in getting callerId on incoming calls on a zap trunk. I am using a zaphfc card When a call is received, one line in asterisk pbx says -- Executing SetCIDName("Zap/32-1", "") in new stack second parameters should be the caller ID, but it is not set The callerid is not hidden at source, so I think that is some kind of setting in zapata.conf I am using

Hello, I'm trying to fill CID data into the astdb using AsteriskWin32's asterisk.exe, to no avail: The batch file stops after the first line, and just waits: ---------------------------------------- rem c:\cygroot\mystuff>import.bat rem rem c:\cygroot\mystuff>C:\cygroot\bin\asterisk.exe -rx 'database put cidname 123 "My cellphone"' rem rem Asterisk module

Hi All, I'm looking for a way to filter the AstDB cidname family to show only those entries with a specified area code in the Asterisk CLI. If this were a SQL database it would be something like: SELECT number, name FROM cidname WHERE number LIKE '1234%' I've tried "database show cidname 1234*" and substituted "%", "$", "-" for the wildcard

Hey folks, I have a T100P card with a PRI; when doing outbound dialing over the PRI, I can use SetCIDNum(2024561414|a) to force caller ID to display as "The White House" on a land line. This is apparently done as a reverse lookup by Verizon, as I do not hand the PRI the words "The White House" -- 202-456-1414 is an actual White House number. Using SetCIDName("Flying

Hi All, I need to use partial matches on the CIDNAME family I have stored in AstDB. For example, an organisation might have several numbers with the same area code and the same first few digits: 1234 567890 1234 567889 1234 567824 ... I'd like to store these (e.g.) as CIDNAME/12345678* (where "*" is a wildcard) so that I can retrieve the organisation name from

Hi, I'm in the process of switching over to Asterisk from Alchemy kit and have hit a stumbling block. We're in the UK and use ISDN. At the moment we don't accept calls from withheld numbers (we just play them a message), but do accept calls from unavailable numbers. There doesn't seem to be any way for me to differentiate between the two number types in Asterisk (chan_CAPI) -

On a BT line, how do I determine whether the number on an incoming call has been deliberately withheld (by dialling 141) or is merely unavailable (e.g. because it originated from overseas or passed through some ancient switching equipment) ? In the first case, I want the caller to be played a message to the effect that we are not at home to anonymous cowards but if their business is

I am using Sipura 841 phones and Asterisk CVS-v1-0-06/14/05. Whenever a call comes in with blank CIDName or CIDNum the phone reports the respective variable as "asterisk". I can manually set the variables to whatever I want: CIDName (alpha-numeric) & CIDNum (Numeric). But if I try to make them blank, or null, or maybe throw some alpha characters into CIDNum, they get reported

I upgraded my Cisco7960 to SIP 8-2 from 7-4. Everything seems ok, works fine. Except that when I make an outbound call, I get a double-ring sound. I also found that if the target number is engaged, I get a ring sound and at the same time get a busy sound. If I revert back to 7-4, there is no problem. Anyone else had this, or any clues on how to fix it ? All of our other phones are still on

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 =>

Hi,   I'm using lars package to run some regression analysis and my doubt now is how can I predict my model to another dataset? Let me explain a little better: I have a dataset from which I withhold some data. With the data that wasn't withheld, I create the model. Now, what I'm not being able to do is apply the model back to the data that I withheld. Any suggestions?   Here it goes

Dear All, I'm trying to configure my new phone Cisco 7960 to work with asterisk. I followed http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/cisco_7960_ip_phone_configuration.html and I got into the point where I can see on the the display line indication showing "55 <phone icon with x>" so it looks like the phone is not registered. The phone and the asterisk are in the same local

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 function, but which one? Thank you.
