Hi list, We're trying to set up a phone number that customers can call to get a hold of anyone of a group of sysadmins (and not their voice mails!). We found the findme example ([1]) that makes the callees press 1 to accept the call. It almost works, but it doesn't work correctly when one of the callees, the sysadmins, hangs up after accepting the call. We're using this

A call comes in and goes into the queue, the queue dials a sip channel using a macro. The macro plays a set of options to the callee and if the callee presses 3 it sets MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE and the macro ends. For some reason the caller goes back into the queue rather than continueing on in the dial plan. Why is this, i could have sworn in 1.2 if i set MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE that the

Hello list, I'm using the following macro when calling an external callphone/GSM number : [macro-press1] exten => s,1,NoOp() exten => s,n,Playback(/var/lib/asterisk/sounds/prompts/press1) exten => s,n,Read(INPUT,,1,1,1) exten => s,n,NoOp(input : ${INPUT}) exten => s,n,GoToIf($["${INPUT}"=="1"]?exit:hangup) exten => s,n(exit),NoOp(call accepted) exten

I am following the example at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+tips+findme but I find that no matter what, the call is connected. Can anyone confirm that config is working for them? Any suggestions appreciated. I need to transfer calls to a list of cell phones, ring all of them, allow them to screen the call, connect the call to the first number that accepts the call, and allow

I have a dovecot installation I am building on a raspberry pi for a mail server for the home. I am almost there, everything bar one thing is working. In simple terms dovecot is the authentication agent and the lda (using lmtp) for postfix. My maildir mailboxed at at /var/mail - location and accounts controlled by a small sqlite database. the uid for these mailboxes are 10001 and up and are

I have a linksys SPA 3102 with a DECT phone connected into its Telephone port. It has been working, but something I've done (and I don't know what) means that now everytime asterisk tries to dial it, it says it is busy. I can make calls from it through asterisk I am at a complete loss to know what to try next to fix it. Any ideas? -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk

This is a followup to the posting earlier about Hunt Groups with Call Screening. I have implemented the following macro and for some reason the Macro does not exit and continue the context it was called from when the called party rejects the call - It always drops through to the NoOp at the end and connects the call. Below are two examples of the dial commands I am using to call the macro.

I am try to use rsync from my windows box (under cygwin) to back up "My Documents" on to a debian server (known on my home network as roo.home) running rsyncd from inetd where it is run as root. my rsyncd.conf file sets the gid and uid to user backup.backup thusly:- syslog facility = daemon uid = backup gid = backup hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/24 hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0 timeout = 600

I am using the Find-me/Follow-me example below with screening: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+tips+findme Here is my actual config: [macro-screen] exten => s,1,Wait(1) exten => s,n,Background(press-1-to-be-connected-to-the-caller) exten => s,n,Set(TIMEOUT(response=5)) exten => 1,1,NoOp(Caller accepted) exten => i,1,Set(MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE) exten =>

Greetings all, I've been working on having Asterisk put a call through to two different numbers, and give the call to the first one that acknowledges by pressing the 1 key. I found an example on the wiki, but I can't get it working. When I answer the call I hear the message telling me to press 1 to connect, and as soon as the message is done, the call is connected. In other words, it

Hi, everybody: As part of a paging macro I'm using SendDTMF to send digits to the called party. The section looks like this: exten => s,1,Wait(0.5) exten => s,n,SendDTMF(9531290) exten => s,n,Wait(1.0) exten => s,n,Set(MACRO_RESULT=CONTINUE) To test I direct the call to a live extension just to hear what's happening -- what actually happens is that only the 9 is sent, and

Hi List I have had a look at the various posts on this and seem to be more confused than ever - but then again that's not hard ;-) I am using Version 1.4.33.1 build from the Debian "lenny" distros I am trying to implement a simple screening [macro-screen] exten => s,1,Background(press1) exten => s,n,WaitExten(5) exten => 1,1,NoOp(accepted) ; Dont set a reply so dial

My mail to the mailing list seems to be rejected by a completely different site. I also seem not to be receiving anything like the normal traffic, and I just went and looked in the archive and there seems to have been only two messages posted all day. Is is working?

I am setting up an after-hours on-call system. Someone calls in and requests service, and while they listen to music on hold, we dial out to several people's cell phones and home phones. We don't know if they will be answered by the employee, or by voicemail or a spouse/relative/child/pet. So we play a message that says "press 1 to accept the call" and ask employees to train

I am trying to set up rsync as a daemon under WindowsXP (professional) in order to be able to backup this machine on to a linux server. I am struggling with an issue I don't understand. I don't know whether it is an Rsync issue or a Cygwin issue, so I am asking both mailing lists. My WindowsXP machine has ip address 192.168.0.25 and name rabbit.home My Linux machine has ip address

Hello, I use the following macro to screen calls when they come in. Priv-instruct-custom says "press 1 to accept, press 2 to reject" However, when no input is made (or the call goes to my mobile's voicemail and therefore no input is made), the result is that the ACCEPT variable is not set and then the GotoIf statement fails. How can I resolve this? Can I simply preset the ACCEPT

I am trying to make a system where a conference user can invite others to join. I am running the 1.2 version of asterisk, so can't use the example on voip-info.org. With use of the X flag on a meetme conference to exit with a single digit, I can get people to join me in a conference with exten => _XXX,1,Dial(${THEIR_EXTEN},,dG(conference-context^${CALLERID}^1)) where the

I am trying to use a macro to screen calls by calling several different phones at the same time in different groups. Find me will not work and queues will not work either. Trust me, I've tried them both and they don't work like they should. Here is what I have: A call comes into 6084 and does the following (in default context): exten => 6084,1,NoOp(test) exten =>
