Re: [Asterisk-Users] SIP/grandstream not registering

It looks like you have you * on public IP and your phones on private, most
likely behind NAT if so in your sip.conf under each [grandstreamX] you most
likely need:  nat=yes

www.voip-info.org had the most visitors ever today (Jan 2).
Slowed down a little, but otherwise no problems.

The Tiki Wiki software is rather resource greedy, its on a dedicated server, but it 
does LOTS of
database queries for each page it displays.

 Wiki software has a bad reputation of too many queries and there for
 always slow operations.

 Of course when I hit that URL this morning it listed as 1.1 seconds. It
 may well be that the recent mention is slashdot may have had increased
 the visitors to the site at that time.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Gotoif / last called

2004-01-03 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi

 Ive been trying to get this to work for ages now, basicaly im trying
 to do if ${woteva} =  (nothing), or its none existenant then do
 label 1, else label 2. for my last called function, so it will play a
 different message if theres no last call in the system or it was
 anonymous. ive tried 

There is a way to  test for an empty string:
  GotoIf($[${CALLERIDNUM} = ]?3:2)

 exten = 1000,1,GotoIf($[${last-call${CALLERIDNUM}} = ]?4:5)
 and heaps of other combinations, most times it ses syntax error when
 im in asterisk verbose 

My guess is that this won't work. Instead look into DBput and DBget and
do something like 

  DBput(last-call/${CALLERIDNUM}=value)

The advantage of this is, by the way, that the last caller data will also 
be available after a restart of Asterisk.

 Also say in my example above, its true so it goes to 4, does that mean
 it goes to extension 4.. or rule 4 in that dialplan ? 

You'll jump to priority 4, not extension 4.

 oh while im asking.. is there a way to make global changes to a
 context 

Look at Macros.

Cheers, Philipp

 This is hard work :) I have read the Asterisk Handbook, BudgeTone User
 Manual, Andy Powell's useful notes, Zac Sprackett's Asterisk Resource
Pages
 and more.

 I am not a linux newbie but am new to Asterisk. I have failed to find any
 docs that explain how to get a very very simple, minimal, system up and I
am
 trying to get the following to work:
snip
 I've been at this off and on for two weeks    Linux admin and
firewalls
 seem trivial compared to this so I must be missing something pretty basic
:)

Careful, that's the wrong thing to say on this list; but, the exact same
thing has been reiterated at least several thousand times (minimum) in
the last few months. The underlying problem truly is that even for those of
us that have been professionally involved with telephony (for years), the
initial learning curve for * is far steeper then the average implementor
can begin to comprehend.

Please folks, let's not start the _weekly_ read the code/docs war once
again; for the experienced ones that really want to click on reply,
please don't

The bottom line is that unless you can read/comprehend code rather quickly,
the technical documentation does not exist in any reasonable form. Lots
of very good people are trying very very hard, but the fact is that far more
technical doc exists only in the code then one would expect from such an
excellent application. (The subject really has been covered in very negative
terms many times, if one can find it. One of the better choices for newbie
research really is http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php , but even this
is very much a 'work-in-progress'. That's a Good Thing!!! There is also a
fair number of folks on the list that are trying to earn a living via *
that won't take the time to respond to even the most basic questions for
obvious reasons. Their signatures will become very apparent.)

Not all of the documentation problem is really related to *; there really
is a lot of interpretation/advancement/research going on with SIP vendors
that frequently initiate postings related to problems/comments on the list.
Once you get a basic * system working, you'll find significant issues with
the SIP standards in terms of NAT and many many other items. That's not
putting * down, its just the nature of non-commercial internet standards.
I do believe that most implementors find the /usr/src/asterisk/README.*
to be helpful, and some other directories that contain sample configs
(of which the directory names are so unobvious I can't find them after
a couple of beers. ;)

You will find that not all SIP vendors interpret the exact same standards
in the same way. For those of us that have tried, software/hardware SIP
phones vary dramatically in terms of interoperability with * (and other
telephony apps). Some get it reasonably right, and other vendors try to
advance the standards with their own interpretations. And, a few are
obviously basement operations with minimal informed staff.

There really are only a few _aggressive_ responders that will abrasively
tell you to read the docs, but what they really mean is read the code. If
that's not appropriate, then simply delete their replies; they really won't
mind even a little tiny bit. It's just the

Be aware, that the documentation is getting better. There is info going
into the wiki daily and there is a book being written. This kind of
documentation is only needed when we get over run by people who aren't
willing to take their time learning and willing to spend a lot of
effort. We built up a large group of developers and supporters without
much documentation. This allowed us to to move forward at a pretty
decent pace. Documentation is usually neglected during periods of fast
growth. 

 As a company we write software for end-users and I insist that an average 16
 year old must be able to make it work, at the basic level, without grief -
 it must be intuitive. OK make that an average linux administrator for
 */VOIP but again it really needs to be intuitive - but I guess I am

I think you need to go meet and get to know some pbx installers. Maybe
make some calls to your local CLECS and requests sales support by a
engineer there. You will eventually learn that telephony is a large
field that takes quite a bit of effort to understand. Your expectations
that telephony be easy will probably not be met unless you have the
prerequisite knowledge to begin with. 

During my last job, I was able to talk to the man who the company hired
to install their Intertel pbx. I ended up with the distinct feeling from
him that the industry has been progressing much as old trades did.
Basically it seemed that one had to study by being a go-fer for a person
who knew what they where doing for some time before you could pick up
the required knowledge to do simple installs.

So while we haven't improved the amount of knowledge you will need to
acquire to begin a decent install, but we have developed a community
that will help those willing to help themselves. Those who aren't
willing to put forth the effort have the ability to pay for the support
they need. 

 I would like to offer to try and do that in the wiki - but realistically I
 don't have the time. Still I am feeling a bit guilty now having got such
 solid support.

The biggest time consumer is the amount you must learn before you can
start documenting. There are many people here who are contributing to
documentation. What you can do to help now is to ask interesting and
directed questions that will be answered by members of this group. When
it is sufficiently answered, Olle tends to get it incorporated into the
wiki.

You were correct. The program was generating the same call IDs for all the

Obviousely, this would not work. Look at my example before;

[5702] ==

username=5702 ==

dtmfmode=info


username and context should match.

Better get it working in a simple LAN first, why NAT, why voicemail ..

2004-01-03 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi!

You started out with a much too complex setup. Start small, test, and 
then add things step by step - don't configure everything at once!

 Asterisk and 2 Grandstrem phones on a LAN. The * box (liza) is RH9 and
 happens to have a firewall connected to the outside but * and the SIP
 phones are all on the same LAN. 

Then remove the nat=yes statements (and also the reinvite= and 
canreinvite= parts) - for Asterisk your phones are not network address 
translated. Also I guess you already read somewhere that having Asterisk 
behind NAT is cause of trouble - but that doesn't matter for your 
internal testing with a basic setup. 

After adjusting sip.conf don't forget to reload Asterisk.

 externip = 10.0.1.198

Remove this for the time being to get your internal test running. Leave 
messing with externip= for later.

 [5702]
 type=friend
 host=dynamic

See the disallow and allow statements I added in sip.conf.

Add this to ur sip.conf ..that would help u.

disallow=all

allow=alaw
allow=ilbc
allow=gsm

-B


 And sip.conf contains this

 [general]
 port = 5060
 bindaddr = 0.0.0.0
 externip = 10.0.1.198

 [general]
 port = 5060 ; Port to bind to
 bindaddr = 0.0.0.0  ; Address to bind to
 externip = 10.0.1.198   ; Addres

 context=johnhome
 reinvite=no
 canreinvite=no
 qualify=300
 callerid=John workroom #1 5702
 mailbox=5702
 nat=no

 [5703] is similar



 extensions.conf is currently slightly modified
verson of Zac Sprackett's
 file http://sprackett.com/asterisk/ - its a bit long
so I won't paste yet.
 However I have had the same result with a much
simpler extensions.conf -
 some days ago.

  Any help would really be appreciated as I am stuck
and finding the
process
 hard because I can't seem to find a basic
introduction aimed at getting me
 up and running with the most basic of systems.
Perhaps you can point me to
a
 BASIC and minimal set of configuration files for
example for a SIP phone
or
 two on a NAT LAN with an X100P plugged into PSTN. I
guess that is where
most
 people start - or should I start somewhere else?

 I've been at this off and on for two weeks   
Linux admin and
firewalls
 seem trivial compared to this so I must be missing
something pretty basic
:)

[Asterisk-Users] expression parsing

2004-01-03 Thread ml
Hi.  I've noticed a problem with the expression parsing in Asterisk.  If the variable 
is not defined, I will get a parse error.  Yeah, there are ways around it, but I would 
think that it should return false if 0, null, or undefined.  I would change it, but I 
have no idea about bison and I only have very basic C skills.

There was a bug opened on this, and there was a valid work-around posted, but I would 
think that it would be 'nicer' if it would evaluate it this way.  (Ref: 
http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=401 )  If you put a 0 after the } 
it does work as I would want it to without an error.  The other suggestions did not 
work.  I propose for this bug to be re-opened.

extensions.conf:
exten = 1234,3,GotoIf($[${a}]?4:5) 

If a is undefined:
WARNING[37910]: File ast_expr.y, Line 346 (ast_yyerror): ast_yyerror(): syntax error: 
parse error
-- Executing GotoIf(SIP/1240-5eb6, 0?4:5) in new stack
-- Goto (default,1234,5)

If I change the extention to exten = 1234,3,GotoIf($[${a}0]?4:5) it works as expected.

Also, I'm not sure if this is my bad or what.  If I use exten = 
1234,3,GotoIf(${a}?4:5) and a is undefined:

-- Executing GotoIf(SIP/1240-2b8a, ?4:5) in new stack
-- Goto (default,1234,4)

it still returns true.

Behold the power of *,

Kevin

   As a newcomer to Asterisk, you will not be
 welcomed
   with open arms.  First, you will find almost no
   documentation on it's features.  Second, if you
 try to
   ask questions, you will be flamed and pointed to
   worthless how-tos and 'the wiki'.  These
 worthless
   documents can only be useful for explaining how
 things
   work to those already in-the-know.  Lastly,
 Asterisk
   is so bug ridden, expect frequent segmentation
 faults.
With a community so 'anti-n00b', don't expect
 your
   problems to be fixed anytime soon.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Grandstream Early Dial

2004-01-03 Thread Greg Boehnlein
 What happens when you change the configuration of the GS phone to
 send DTMF via SIP INFO?
 
 Send via SIP, RTP or INLINE AUDIO.
 
 Make sure you change your dtmfmode= in your sip.conf to match the mode 
 set on the phone..

Yes.. that solved it. I added dtmfmode=info to sip.conf and set SIP INFO as the 
DTMF type on the phone and all is now well!

[Asterisk-Users] Free PSTN calls

2004-01-03 Thread Isaac McDonald
I have set up my * box to provide free calling. You can access it by
dialing 1-700-945-2475. Once you hear the prompt dial 1 the area code
and number. I would also like to test some direct incoming IAX
connections from some other * boxes to see if I can terminate PSTN calls
that way. If you would like to help me testemail me:

So why are you here, again, since you've already indicated how bad you
think Asterisk is?  Perhaps Qwest has a competing service and wishes to

Re: [Asterisk-Users] mini-ITX suggestions

2004-01-03 Thread Leo Ann Boon
We just got 1 Nehemiah in the office. Performance-wise it's pretty much 
a P3-class machine, IIRC the FPU is running at full clock speed compared 
to the 800MHz version. We do have problem booting a 686 optimized kernel 
on it. Can't install White Box Enterprise Linux (community distro based 
on RedHat Advance Server 3.0) but RH 8 works fine. The box we have takes 
2 PCI cards beautifully, but no * yet. I'd * running on the 800MHz box. 
It's works fine as long as you're not using too much floating point 
(i.e. avoid compression/decompression on the box). My setup had one 
XP101 connected to one 1 DG104S MGCP gateway and one BATM MGCP gateway. 
Works pretty well without MOH (MP3=FPU). MeetMe works fine. I'd an early 
TDM400 hooked up to it for a while, but gave up because of the massive 
amount of PSU noise. YMMV.

FYI.

Does anyone have recommendations for (or against) mini-ITX platforms to
be used with Wildcard X100P and TDM400P cards?
I am considering the use of systems using VIA EPIA CL and Epia M as
small, quiet platforms on which to host Asterisk.
 

It has been covered here before that those are i586 level chips, so be
prepared for the actual horsepower you will get out of them. If you
don't do much VoIP, it will probably be fine. I think there is even a
person or 2 here already using them as thats why we know about the i586
problem.
   



What about the newer chip (the Nehemiah)? I have an 800mhz version of the
older system/core that's clearly i586 architecture doing some PVR stuff (I
have a tuner card with mpeg encoding builtin, so the lack of horsepower is
a non-issue), however I *believe* the newer Nehemiah core is i686
compatable.  I do know they've added hardware RNG, SSE/SIMD extensions,
and a full speed floating point unit to the processor. The motherboard
also has an updated north/south bridge, utilizing PC2100/DDR266 RAM, comes
with USB2.0 and firewire integrated, and moves from 1 ATA100 to 2 ATA133
channels.  It'd sure be a waste to couple all of that nice hardware to an
antiquated i586 chip. (and the best is a board+chip+case can be
accomplished for around $200USD)
Can anyone confirm if they've added what was necessary to bring the chip
up to the i686 level?
A brief overview of the new Nehemiah features can be seen at
http://www.mini-itx.com/reviews/nehemiah/?page=3#s05
I'll have one of these machines in hand probably early next week, so maybe
I can do some testing before I move it into the role of my new PVR (those
damn trans-encodes from mpeg to streamable formats take too darn long on
the 800! :)

RE: [Asterisk-Users] New to asterisk? RUN... don't walk.

2004-01-03 Thread Paul Mahler
As far as your original post goes, Asterisk doesn't regularly segment fault.
There are many stable installations. We have a bunch of happy users. This is
remarkable since Asterisk is still a beta product. 

There is plenty of useful information on the sites you panned if you are
smart enough to find it. Paid support is available from Digium if you don't
like the free support or are to dumb or lazy to figure things out for
yourself.

The Asterisk community is in general very supportive of beginners, although
not of stupidity or sloth.

Lastly, anything that may be wrong with Asterisk is being fixed in a big
hurry. It's already better than the proprietary systems, even though it's
still a beta product, and it's free for god's sake. 

In a few years, Asterisk will be a polished product in general release and
you will have missed the boat. 

Don't quit your day job. It's not going to be easy to find someone else who
will hire you. 

You should find a different group to read.

 As a newcomer to Asterisk, you will not be
   welcomed
 with open arms.  First, you will find almost
no
 documentation on it's features.  Second, if
you
   try to
 ask questions, you will be flamed and
pointed to
 worthless how-tos and 'the wiki'.  These
   worthless
 documents can only be useful for explaining
how
   things
 work to those already in-the-know.  Lastly,
   Asterisk
 is so bug ridden, expect frequent
segmentation
   faults.
  With a community so 'anti-n00b', don't
expect
   your
 problems to be fixed anytime soon.

 RUN!!! Don't walk... away from Aterisk.

   
   
   
   

[Asterisk-Users] New to asterisk? RUN... don't walk.

2004-01-03 Thread Justin Sinclair
 I now stand by my original post with
 more conviction than ever.

 There were a lot of insightful replies.  However, none
 of them were able to address the real problems of the
 asterisk community and come up with solutions.  If you
 can't see your own faults, you are in for a bumpy
 ride.

How does the saying go? If you're not part of the solution, 

As one who is new to Asterisk, I am happy that I did not heed your
suggestion to RUN. The sources of information you deem worthless
have proven quite helpful to me in (so far) setting up my Asterisk
server, getting SIP phones talking through it, using voicemail, and
amazingly- all this without a single segmentation fault! :-P 

Your complaints about the Asterisk Community remind me very much of
complaints often made about the Linux Community. Judging an entire
community (and even quality of the software) based on the actions of a
few people is a big mistake.

As far as your original post goes, Asterisk doesn't regularly segment fault.
There are many stable installations. We have a bunch of happy users. This is
remarkable since Asterisk is still a beta product. 
888.480.4638, my toll-free number, is routed to wherever I choose to 
route it to via an Asterisk box. (Usually it rings through to my cell 
phone.) There is the occasional hiccup, but in general I have to throw 
in a Me too in reply to Paul. The software is generally quite stable.

Having played with an Asterisk installation and read about the things 
that are going on here, I am constantly amazed at all the things it's 
being made to do.

[Asterisk-Users] TDM400P driver modprobe failed

2004-01-03 Thread Michael
Hello Everyone,

I just got my Dev Kit TDM today... :D

I installed the X100P ok (wcfxo); however, when I tried to 'modprobe wcfxs' for 
the TDM400P(TDM10B), I got this error message:

/lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/wcfxs.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including 
invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/wcfxs.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/wcfxs.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.19/misc/wcfxs.o: insmod wcfxs failed

I checked the TDM10B card installation; I checked the 12V power connecting to 
it; I moved the card to a different PCI slot...but all of that didn't help the 
driver installation :(

Help? Any suggestion would be appreciated!


Thanks,
Michael W.

p.s. I compiled the driver from zaptel-0.7.0.tar.gz.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Programming an unlocked ADSI phone?

2004-01-03 Thread Darren Nickerson
Tilghman,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I agree with the comment from
'siggi' - it seems that this should be configurable on a per handset basis,
not per voicemail user as currently implemented in the most recent patch
that has been hung on this bug. It's a useful hack that may help us in the
short term and I'm grateful for the pointer, but doesn't seem like anything
that should ever find its way into CVS.

It's not clear to me who authored this patch (Corydon76 ), or why 'bkw918'
closed it at the author's request. Without support for personal names and
signature blocks this bug tracking software is awfully dehumanizing, and I'm
finding myself a little more disoriented that normal ;-)

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Residential router w/ QoS support?

2004-01-03 Thread Michael Graves
Thilo,

I wasn't too sure about the packet based prioritization so I stuck with
the physical port based model. That is, I made port 1 high priority all
the time, then plugged my * sever into that port. Actually, that
segment has all the ip phones and nothing else. 

The problem I had initally with my Vonage installation (now defunct in
favour of VocePulse Connect) was that FTP'ing large amounts of data
would kill voice line separate segments, and assigning the VOIP segment
priority took care of it entirely. I don't have so many devices around
that making the separate segment was an issue.

Michael,

I just got mine. Do you recall how you managed to priortize RTP? Or do
you rely on the 'priortized switching port' feature? I tried that, but
perhaps my TOS value does not match the one this router expects. Even
sending a single, large email can kill the voice stream. Leave alone
BitTorrent. Unfortunately, the documentation is far from extensive...

 The ones I've seen so far (Netgear, D-Link and W-Linx) do not seem to
 support it. I noticed that even email can damage a G.711 stream on an
 128kbit uplink, leave alone file-sharing applications. I understand this
 is strictly related to *, but nevertheless of interest to many of us.

Re: AW: AW: [Asterisk-Users] Snom 200 with two extns defined anyone?

2004-01-03 Thread Michael Graves
Please forgive me if this is a silly question. I've been following this
thread in the hope that I could put my * server and snom 200 into
full-time service very soon. I need to find out how to have the lines
configured so that it does not return a busy reply when only one call
instances is engaged.

Am I supposed to create multiple extensions on my asterisk dialplan to
reflect the 5 call instances? That is, would the snom 200 be extension
2000 or 2000-2004?

Also, did the 2.03f firmware resolve the matter?

Thanks,

Michael

 Ok, Christian, let's fix this.
 
 First, I'm curious, is the line= parameter specified somewhere? (Always

 I would really appreciate if Snom could help us fixing this, so Snom

 I'm not an experienced C programmer, so I can't fix this myself. However,
 there are
 experienced C programmers in the community that will fix this, but they
 need proper

 I've opened a bug

 Let's continue adding information there.
