Hi all- Thanks to Mark Spencer for finding this patch: If you are experiencing leftover zombie processes from your AGI scripts that have terminated, this is apparently due to a RedHat 9 threading issue introduced in a recent update.... To get rid of this, try entering the following line before you start asterisk: export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 It works for me - I'm still checking to

Hi- I'm almost embarrassed to ask the following simple question, following John's excellent and rigorous bandwidth analysis (see earlier thread): I have a straightforward Asterisk application, IVR-only (no connections between channels). It will simply decode DTMF's and speak prompts (probably A-Law encoded) on a number of E1 circuits simultaneously. Realistically, how many

Hello- What is the .gsm format? Ie: what's the encoding method and sample rate please? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London, England Email: scott@evtmedia.com URL: www.evtmedia.com

Hi- Perhaps someone with an E100P in hand can answer this: I just received an E100P from Digium (I normally buy quad boards) I noticed that the circuit board says "T100P" on it, and I assume that the T100P and E100P both use the same circuit board. Can someone please confirm that their E100P says "T100P" on the artwork? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice

Hi- I've been considering writing some self-test software for several quad-E1 cards that I've just received from Digium. I don't have an E-1 channel bank, so this would be my way of checking that everything hardware-wise is working fine before I head out to the dark and cold confines of my customer's equipment room - to make everything work with their E1's. I was thinking of

Hi- I have posted a photo of the TE410P Digium card on my site, so that those wishing to purchase a compatible motherboard can see physically what the PCI slot requirement is: http://www.evtmedia.com/TE410P.htm I believe the required slot is a 64-bit, 3.3 Volt PCI, most commonly found on Xeon-based motherboards. A 64-bit slot is longer than the TE410P board requires, but the PCI connector

Hello- Is it possible to set the CDR record field called "accountcode" from within the dialplan? Or is there another way to cause this field to be set, preferably without using AGI code.

Hi all- Over the past week or two, I've been trying out asterisk under Fedora 1 Linux (RedHat). In my setup (single and dual Xeon motherboards), I have so far had a very good experience in terms of performance. In doing E1 load testing, I've found that Fedora handles heavy load much better than RedHat9, probably because of its better use of the multi-threading capabilities of the Xeon.

Hi all- This question is for those familiar with EuroISDN setup. I have a customer in Europe where I'm going to install an asterisk based system with 4 E1's. The customer will configure them all in one large hunt group. My question is about the E1 channel configuration. I know that usually single E1 spans are set up with 30 channels (1-15 and 17-31) as the voice (bearer) channels and

Hello- Has anyone had experience connecting to a Marconi switch (in the UK) using E1-PRI connections (TE410P)? In a new installation, my customer is getting yellow alarms on every channel about every 30 seconds. These alarms clear themselves immediately and then re-occur in another 30 seconds, ad infinitum. I used the same configuration that I've used successfully in the past while talking

Hi- I'm looking for an appropriate system board to power a system with two (2) Digium TE410P cards. Since these cards require the 3.3 volt PCI, I'm considering vendors like Tyan for the motherboard. Can anyone please tell me their experiences with the Tyan i7501 series (Xeon-basd), or recommend an alternate motherboard? Thanks Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc.

Hi all- It's often mentioned here that recompiling the Linux kernel may improve the performance of asterisk. My question is: Does re-compiling the kernel have any effect if there are no changes to the configuration? What parameters will typically improve performance? Thanks for any insight! Scott Scott M. Stingel Emerging Voice Technology Inc. Palo Alto, California and London,

Hi- I have an upcoming order for a bunch of asterisk boxes, and I'm considering using an "assembled" package for the server, instead of building them from components as I usually do. Does anyone have experience with the Dell PowerEdge 750 server, or any other 1U rackmount server for use with asterisk? Thanks in advance Scott Stingel Scott M. Stingel President, Emerging Voice

Hi- In trying to track down a possible memory leak in asterisk, I've discovered that the "show memory allocations" command crashes asterisk (causes it to stop handling calls, although it doesn't seg fault). The related "show memory summary" works however. Before I post this to the bugs list, can someone else please confirm this problem? You need to enable malloc

Hello- I have a client in Orange County California who will soon need some consulting assistance with their new asterisk system. I've been asked to help them find someone. Skills needed would be, in order of importance: Basic experience configuring and using asterisk, coding experience in Perl, experience with MySQL or equiv., and a knowledge of telephony terminology and

Hi- A customer of mine running asterisk has inquired if asterisk currently supports TBCT, that is the ability of asterisk to transfer a call back up to the carrier's switch to complete a connection, freeing up the B-channels on the asterisk box. I saw a reference to this feature in the asterisk "bounties" section on the Wiki, and someone added a note saying that this might be

Hi- I have an upcoming application that requires use of PRI channels that are primarily used for high-volume incoming traffic, but that are to be used for outbound calling as well. Of course, one option is to have dedicated outbound channels reserved, but this is an inefficient use of channel resources. Normally PBX's are designed to have the CPE yield to an incoming call if a particular

Good day, Our installation needs a robust ACD application (as I'm sure others do) that can be dynamically reconfigured (if possible) maybe by a MySQL database. I have looked at Bill Heckel's ACD work and Andreas Otto's DynExtendb as well as James Sharp's ACD. None of these seem to be quite finished. Is there a chance a unified (* blessed) ACD application can be put

Hello Sir, I have few clarifications as we are planning to work with asterisk. If you don't mind, please clarify the following:- Q1. Do Asterisk support ACD functionality? If Yes, can you give information on how to configure or work with ACD (and it's usage). Q2. From the list of features listed in www.asterisk.org , I see "Predictive dialler" is listed

Has anybody got the polycom acd function to work? I have the following setup: Debian 3.1 - 2.6.8 linux zlib-1.1.4 libpri-1.2.3 zaptel- 1.2.6 Asterisk - the bweschke/polycom_acd_funtions branch version - I get one error when doing a make install about needing a newer version of libpri and zaptel, I got the above versions from asterisk.org, are there newer version anywhere else? In the sip.conf
