I would like to do something like: exten => s,1,playback(http://my.server.com/file.wav) I tested and it does not work. It seems highly likely that someone would already have done this one way or another. I know I could do a system wget and then play the local file, but wanted something a bit more elegant. Thanks, Mike Clark

Hello, all. I must be brain cramping badly on our Asterisk 1.6.1.1 installation. Our MeetMe macros are working fine except they do not prompt for a PIN. So I made a very simple conference room: exten => 7777,1,MeetMe(123456,cMaAsx,123456) Shouldn't this prompt the user who dials 7777 to enter a PIN before entering the conference room whether or not a PIN is defined in meetme.conf? I

I was looking at the aastra 9133i, however I was informed that this phone is no longer supported. What are good phones around the $100 - $125 price point? (Need POE) Thanks, David Ruggles CCNA MCSE (NT) CNA A+ Network Engineer Safe Data, Inc. (910) 285-7200 david at safedatausa.com

Someone has hacked into our system and is making calls overseas. How can I: 1. Find out the where the calls are originating from? 2. Block all calls that are not authorized? Our system is in the USA. Only calls from inside our LAN are allowed. Thank you, Gary Kuznitz -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

I would appreciate any ideas of what I'm doing wrong on this. My dialplan calls an AGI which records a file. That works, but I'm trying to find a way to determine whether the caller pressed # to stop a recording before the maxtime expired, or if the recording ended due to reaching the max timeout. The $fx variable in the below agi excerpt always returns 0. $res =

Dear Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion, I joined VirtualPhoneLine.Com service and am really enjoying the use of it. VirtualPhoneLine.Com allows me to buy virtual numbers from anywhere in the world and then forwards it to my Mobile Number, Regular Phone, MSN Messenger, Google Talk or an IP Phone. Have a look at the http://www.virtualphoneline.com/faq and

Hello, How do you tell how much of your l2arc is populated? I''ve been looking for a while now, can''t seem to find it. Must be easy, as this blog entry shows it over time: http://blogs.sun.com/brendan/entry/l2arc_screenshots And follow up, can you tell how much of each data set is in the arc or l2arc? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Someone on this list uses the address @sedwards.com I doubt this is their actual email address as there is no MX record for sedwards.com and I can't find registration for their domain either. Part of my mail servers reject these emails because they cannot be replied to, or are likely to be spam. Every so often I get a mail from the list management to say that I've been unsubscribed

I have Sipura 841's talking to a CVS-HEAD of August 4. If I disconnect the power to the Sipura, Asterisk does not hang up the channel. My sip.conf for this phone looks like: ; [super1] ; Sipura 841 disallow = all allow = ulaw callerid = "super1"

I want to capture all SIP messages. I have about 30 hosts in about 6 colos. My first thought was dumpcap, but the output file name format bugs me. What do you use for long term SIP capture? -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwards at sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST

I have a TDM400p with 3 fxs and 1 fxo daughter cards. It's in a mini-itx case with a 'right-angle' PCI riser card so the TDM400p is 'sandwiched' between the Atom D525 CPU and the 2.5" hard drive. I'm getting a bunch of clicks and pops on all ports. Has anybody had a similar experience? Did you find a solution? -- Thanks in advance,

Hi Steve, What language is that please? We're using Perl and so far I haven't found an equivalent there. Thanks for your help.

Hello, Reading through the Wiki: "Asterisk supports the ability to write dialplan instructions in the Lua programming language. This method can be used as an alternative to or in combination with extensions.conf and/or AEL. PBX lua allows users to use the full power of lua to develop telephony applications using Asterisk" My question is, what is the benefit of using Lua? I recently

Hi All, I do have asterisk installed for a call center and I would like to know if it is possible to create a scipt and execute it from a PC connected to the Network without accessing the server. This script should restart asterisk and another service related to aheeva. The problem now is that each time I have to access using PUTY to the server to start and run services manually. Service

Now that the g729 patents have expired, how do we use g729 in Asterisk? Will Digium be releasing a g729 codec for 'free' use or do we download the 'free' codec off the Internet now that we can use it without moral or legal restrictions? -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwards at sedwards.com

I want to be able to allow a caller to dial a ddi, system to verify identity etc (this is all done) I then want them to sit listening to music, until an event happens. When this (external) event happens, I want to play a certain file to the caller, using playback (so that they have ff / rw etc), and when finished, go back to the music. 1) I thought of redirecting to an extension that played the
