I have a linux computer with a sound card, I want to place a call to a cell phone using asterisk and my voiceplus account. I can use kphone (linux app) to call voiceplus, but I am hoping to learn to use some of the cooler features of asterisk. I am lost.
On my debian installation there is no man page... Powerful package, I'm excited by the possibilities, but I don't know where to start. 16 configuration files and hundreds of pages of wiki later I find: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+voicepulse+connect?PHPSESSID=65c54fd39ecfe6dd398711fa2e94b6b6 which is pretty much the same place I was with the voiceplus page: http://www.voicepulse.com/kb/index.php?page=index_v2&id=45&c=11 I have set up the exten => line in extentions.conf. [default] exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial,IAX2/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/${EXTEN} What do I do now? I can start asterisk : asterisk -vvvvc *CLI> dial 17185551212 No such extension '17185551212' in context 'local' I try to start asterisk in the background: asterisk & ps shows it is definitely running. I try: astman localhost and astman 127.0.0.1 etc. Connect Failed | 127.0.0.1 failed: Connection refused Do I have to use kphone as a client to call the local asterisk server? How do I do that? Can't I use 'CLI> dial' ? I was hoping to send a soundfile.
