Hello, we have a MGE Pulsar Evolution 800 connected to a Fedora Core5 Server using a serial cable. Installed and configured properly are RPM versions of nut-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 nut-client-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 nut-cgi-2.0.3-0.1.fc5 which all work (mostly) fine.

PoE VOIP phones in Australia
Hi, Are there any resellers of phones that can take power over ethernet in Australia? All I can find for sale online is the BT-10[12], which is cheap but not featureful enough, and the Snom 190, which is about right, but neither of them support PoE. I'm particularly intereseted in the Snom 220 with the keypad expansion for our receptionist. Although, could you make a PoE split-out cable

Need some dialplan help for obscure user request
I have a customer who wants their receptionist to input the users' long distance PINs for the because they use each others pins.

Grandstream hold one way audio -URGENT
Hi all, At our customer site i've installed one asterisk server with 20 Grandstream GXP2000's. Firmware 1.0.1.9. When someone dials the customer, the receptionist picks up, and does an attended transfer (the 'grandstream way') to a collegue.

IAX Calls - One Way Audio
Hello List, I am currently having a bit of a strange issue with a pair of asterisk servers that we recently set up. For a bit of background, this particular business has two sites in two different towns, about 10 minutes apart. They have 3 analogue PSTN lines connected to the asterisk servers at each location, via a Sangoma A200 (with HEC). They are trying to have just the one receptionist for

Remotely dialing calls from a polycom phone
I have a Polycom IP600 serving as a receptionist phone. We developed a call manager via c/gtk that runs on a touchpad. It allows them to transfer calls, transfer to voicemail, page, etc. The problem is this: When paging another phone from the touchpad, I have to open a channel to the receptionist phone. This rings the receptionist phone. When she picks up, it then pages the desired person. This is

Receptionist
Hi, Quick question. With an old phone system a receptionist receiving a call has 1 button to push to transfer calls to a specific extension, with Asterisk, a receptionist would actually put the caller on hold, pick up another line, call the extension, ask if the person is available, hang up pick up the caller again and transfer. To me it's seems a long way to simply do a receptionist

Dialing Ring Groups from the Digital Receptionist-
Hi! I've got a number of extensions (about 50) on a working Asterisk setup. For each user, I have two extensions configured (for example 11021 for a Cisco 79XX phone and 11022 for X-Lite), and a ring group that ties the two extensions together (for example, 1102). Reason being that if the user is away from his/her desk or working offsite, they can answer the soft phone on the PC. From

SIP Phones-Receptionist Setup
I am looking at placing a system in an office with a central receptionist, and phones for each individual employee thereafter. Could I use a Snom 220 with additional keypads to view if the lines are in use by the other employees? Fred is in sales... A call comes into the receptionist and they transfer the call to Fred. The receptionist can tell Fred is still on the phone by viewing the assigned

8+ line receptionist only setup
Hi, We are looking towards a 8+ CO line setup (20 extensions) in our office but we do not want an IVR(auto-attendant) feature. All incoming will be answered by a receptionist. I have read the multi-line configuration for cisco 7960 thread in this list but that way I believe we could only display 6 incoming lines. What will happen to the rest? Does the expansion module for the cisco 7960 work

CallerID when transferring calls.
If extension 101 calls 102 and user 102 hits # and then 103, the caller ID of 103's phone says 102. I've been looking for a way to have 103's Caller ID show the person that is being transferred not the person transferring. So if my receptionist answers the phone and transfers it to one of my techs, I want my techs phone to display the caller ID of the person who called the
