Hi all. I have been using Asterisk for sometime now and have recently come across AMP for the first time. I am wondering if someone could enlighten me a little as to the advantages and disadvantages to using AMP as opposed to the "do-it-yourself" Asterisk? Is this documented someplace? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. David A. Morrow Technical Systems Lead Autodata Solutions

Hi all, I have Winbind authentication up and running properly (thanks to new, easy to use features of Redhat Ent 4). My question is this. I know that I can, by massaging /etc/pam.d files manually, have Winbind/Samba automatically create a home directory for each user that logs in, but I am wondering if Samba/Winbind can instead map to their home directory as defined in their Windows profile

Hi all, I have been using Asterisk for a while now, and loving it. Just about to update to 1.0 (running like 0.93) I was wondering if anyone has any expertise in the implementation of AMP onto an existing Asterisk install? The instructions for it all deal with a fresh install of Asterisk, and I would hate to be forced to re-configure. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. David A. Morrow

Hi all, I have asterisk installed and working just fine with a couple of Cisco IP Phones. I am now ready to pilot connectivity to PSTN and am wondering what hardware would be recommended to make minimum connectivity to the public telephone network. I am think ISDN as I would like a few external lines to be accessible. David A. Morrow Technical Systems Lead Autodata Solutions Company

Hi all, I was wondering if someone could lend a little assistance. I recently setup SAMBA/Winbind to allow users to login to a Redhat 8 box using their Windows NT Domain credentials. All is working well in that regard. The issue I am having is getting regular UNIX based users to be able to login. The following is my PAM configuration. For example, if I try to login as root, it does not work.

I've installed SAMBA, Winbind etc and everything is working great for users to login with GDM using DOMAIN+username Although this is working, now I can no longer login as a generic Linux user (ex. root). The following is my GDM file from /etc/pam.d/gdm I wonder if someone might have a suggestion as to what it's missing to allow Linux users to login? #%PAM-1.0 auth required

Hi all. I hope this is not a RTFM-type question, but I've been unable to find a searchable archive of this mailing list....... I recently began investigating using Dovecot/Postfix/MySQL solution. I've been following the documentation http://wiki.dovecot.org/HowTo/DovecotLDAPostfixAdminMySQL?highlight=%28m ysql%29 While everything seems to have gone right, I have been unable to

Hi all. I posted this earlier but never got any advice that helped. If anyone knows how to get this going, I'd appreciate some advice. I am attempting to setup Asterisk to allow me to press *1 while in a call to use automon to record the call but have had absolutely no success. Is there a trick to this? In extensions.conf [globals] DYNAMIC_FEATURES=>automon [default] exten =>

Hi all. I was reading a sample config someone had posted relating to call forwarding, and in it, they use a Dial command with components that I cannot find any reference to. Can someone point me to a reference which could explain the difference between Dial(SIP/100|20|Ttr,,wW) and Dial(SIP/100,,wW) Specifically, what is the |20|Ttr ? I cannot seem to find any reference which would indicate

Does anyone have any experience with an Asterisk compatible softphone application which meets the following criteria: 1) Is able to use touch screen rather than mouse for on-screen functions. 2) Has an API which can be used to export Caller ID info to another App on the same compuer. Thanks Bill

I have SAMBA & Winbind working quite well. Users are able to login with DOMAIN+username. With SAMBA sharing using the following config snipit, each user can see their home directory from their Windows machine, but when they try to access the directory, they are prompted for username/password. No combination of username or password seems to work. comment = Home Directories browseable

Hi. I'm trying to get plugger to work with ogg123 and it does - sort of. No matter what the song is, it plays 24 seconds of the song and then dies. Same spot every time - I've tried with a short song (Janis Joplin Mercedes Benz) and a long song (Cracker Eurotrash Girl). I have this as the mime identification in the plugger rc file: audio/ogg: ogg: Vorbis Ogg audio application/x-ogg: ogg:

Hello, I know this might sound stupid, but here's my problem. I try to build packages, which gives absolutely no problem as long as I do this in Linux. I get my .tar.gz-package. However, for windows, one needs .zip-files (I guess), but for one reason or another, this seems not to work. I'm sorry about this question, but I'm not a windows-specialist (nor Linux-guru). I don't see

I'm trying to convince my employer to deploy an Asterisk based system, but one member of the leadership team is against it. The rest of the team is for it, but he's convinced them that we should find other organisations in the Joplin, MO area who are using Asterisk first because, "we don't want to be the first in our area." I can't fathom how that's relevant, since

I manage a set of CentOS operations workstations which are all clones of each other (3 "live" and 1 "spare" kept powered down); each has a single drive with four partitions (/boot, /, /home, swap). I've already set up cron'd rsync jobs to copy the operations accounts between the workstations on a daily basis, so that when one fails, it is a simple, quick process to swap

Howdy. I'm running samba-3.0.2-2 (from the binaries on samba.org) on a RedHat 9 box with kernel 2.4.20-28.9. I can access shares from my Windows XP Home box, but the performance isn't very good. When I looked into this, I discovered that apparently the connections are getting dropped, over and over again, which causes a lot more work, I'm sure. Here's a snippet from my main

hi, Can anybody pls tell me, how to increase the time gap between 2 digits when you transfer a call. ie, the operator answers the call, and presses hash key to transfer, and then enters the extension number, some times, it timeouts too quickly before the operator enters the whole extension number (may be bcos the operator is slow). I tried the following, but it doesn't seems to be helping

Everyone, One of our developers was kind enough to insert some bug checking into the mod_auth_pam and mod_auth_sys_group so that we could see a little more of what was going on with our authentication failures. Here is what we just saw. Two of our users NA\connelmp and NA\guminssa both started getting messages that they were not part of the required group. Here is the log for
