Lonnie, Thanks a lot! I was able to successfully initiate a call by executing curl from the DOS command window using Vista64. A few questions regarding the actionlist options:
- What is the difference between "callerid=" and "localcallerid="? I'm assuming that at least one of those options is used to pass the callerid string to the party you are calling. - What is the purpose of "allow="? Thanks again. -tm -----Original Message----- From: Lonnie Abelbeck [mailto:li...@lonnie.abelbeck.com] Sent: Monday, August 16, 2010 4:24 PM To: AstLinux Users Mailing List Subject: Re: [Astlinux-users] MS Outlook Integration? Tom, AstLinux does offer a general dialproxy.php script that can be called via curl. -------- $ curl --insecure "https://pbx/dialproxy.php?num=2223334444&ext=value"; The num= number is the outbound call phone number. The ext= value is a label that references a key in the asterisk "astdb" database. The actionlist key "DIALPROXY-value" must be defined, the required data is the initial phone extension to dial, such as SIP/1234 . Additionally, tilde '~' separated options of context=default timeout=30 callerid= localcallerid= dialprefix= allow= can be omitted, or defined in any order. For more info, search for "[Version 1.5.48]" at: http://lonnie.abelbeck.com/astlinux/altweb-changelog.txt -------- For OS X, Address Book support (example supplied) and even system wide, Dial Proxy support is quite simple. (I use it daily). Back to MS Outlook, I'm not sure if the Applescript example can be coaxed to work with Outlook, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
