[asterisk-users] Configuring sip.conf to allow guest access
Hi, I am configuring a conferencing server and need to allow SIP clients guest access. In iax.conf, I can allow guest access to the [conference] context with this entry === iax.conf == [guest] type=user host=dynamic context=conference So anyone connecting without username/password will be logged in as guest and restricted to the conference context. How can I do the same in sip.conf? How do I also configure my xlite client to login as guest? How to configure IAX is explained here http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+config+iax.conf but not for SIP. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+config+sip.conf Thanks in advance. ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

Re: [asterisk-users] [Asterisk-Java] SipShowPeerAction
I think you have to implement the ManagerEventHandler interface to handle the PeerEntryEvent.ManagerEventHandler mgrHdlr = new ManagerEventHandler { public void handleEvent(ManagerEvent event) { PeerEntryEvent peerEntryEvent = (PeerEntryEvent) event;System.out.println(peerEntryEvent.getStatus()); } } And you have to register to receive your eventHandler managerConnection.addEventHandle(mgrHdlr);HTH. richard Coco [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi all,first of all sorry for the question.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Mitel 3300 PRI problems
I had this same problem with SX2000. I think you have to configure the Mitel to "Speed Dial" to your Asterisk server. What I think is happening is that the PBX grabs a trunk but does not "dial" into Asterisk.Ask the person configuring the Mitel PBX to setup an extension (e.g. 1234) when callers connect to the PBX. That's what they had to do to get data to my Asterisk.Goodluck.richardJohn Fulton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We are attempting to interface Asterisk with a Mitel 3300.Initially we tried FXO Ground start T1 and had many problems with that.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge 2850
Thank you very much Darren.I did look at Dell's website for the info but was not able to find the PCI voltage info. Perhaps I looked at the wrong place or missed it. Googling also did not give me answers.I called Dell myself and the tech support person was very helpful. He confirmed that Dell PE 2850 indeed has 3.3V for PCI X.Digium's support also confrimed this. They suggested I exchange my TE205P card with the TE210P card which works with PCI-X 3.3V. I am a newbie at Asterisk and am learning a lot thanks to the responses of the members of this list.richardDarren Reilly [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Dell website Useguide has the info and its:Expansion Bus Bus type PCI-X, PCI Express Expansion slots via riser card cage:PCI-Xone 3.3-V, 64-bit, 100-MHz or three 3.3-V, 64 bit, 133MHz PCI Expressone x4 lane width one x8 lane widthI would have thought the dell website would have been the first place to look.Took less than 2 mins to get the relevant info I cannot believe tech support couldn't give you that information.-Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Klaus DarilionSent: 20 February 2006 23:23To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial DiscussionSubject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Dell PowerEdge 2850Ryan Amos wrote: I use a PE2850 with CentOS 4.2 on it (as parent says, it is essentially RHEL 4 without the support contract.)
