Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk was discunnected suddenly

2008-06-15 Thread Pezhman Lali
Dear,
your hardware is good for more than 200-300 calls,
configure asterisk for more details in debug,
the output in console is more useful.
also plz attach your main configurations for conference,
viewing consumed ram and cpu during conference, can help

[asterisk-users] Asterisk Manager Telnet Times Out?

2008-06-15 Thread Matthew Rubenstein
I use the Asterisk Manager API by telneting into localhost:5038 then
issuing action directives (usually inside a script). The telnet
connection connects in a few milliseconds, and usually the Action: Login
(and other Actions, including arbitrary valid Asterisk commands like
"show channels") take well under a second to complete. But sometime in
the last few days the Message doesn't return for closer to 20-30
seconds, but it does return properly. I haven't changed anything else on
the machine since it was working, practically nothing except Asterisk
and its dependencies are running (not even any calls), CPU load is about
user: 0.001%; kernel: 0.02%; io: 0.004%; idle: 99.97% . What could make
the Manager take so long to turn around actions all of a sudden?

I'm using Asterisk 1.2 on Debian 4.0 on a P4/3.2GHz/2GB on which about
1.95GB is free and there's no swapping or any other evident thrashing. I
have restarted the machine, and the Manager performance isn't changing.

[asterisk-users] Problem connecting to another server, Failed to authenticate on INVITE

2008-06-15 Thread Chris Nestrud
When I call from SJPhone (softphone) and connect to an asterisk server
(source.asterisk.server), then dial an extension, which connects to a
different asterisk server (destination.asterisk.server), it fails.

"chan_sip.c:12253 handle_response_invite: Failed to authenticate on INVITE
to 'source.asterisk.server.ip'".

SIP Debug shows that the destination server is asking for proxy
authentication.

I can connect from the soft phone to the source asterisk server and dial an
extension which runs an AGI application on that server without problems.

I can connect from the soft phone to the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
SIP address with no problem.

The source and destination asterisk servers are not using NAT. The soft
phone is behind NAT.

Configuration files and logs are below. Any ideas on how I can
successfully make this connection?

For completeness of the archives, I've found the answer to this. 

I've had to move from dtmf = rfc2833 to dtmf = info to fix my problems.  
The only issue now is that Asterisk doesn't recognize dtmf for the local 
phone system's voice mail.  I get around that by setting only the 
conference room phones to info and everybody else to rfc2833

It's not useles. What will he learn by just copying and pasting below?

The first thing I would have done if I got a reply that said just
"logrotate" is Google for it and then read it's man page.

Sorry, sometime I presume people just need a pointer in the right direction.

I should have said "have a look at /etc/logrotate.* files on a
GNU/Linux box and copy one.

Then if you got stuck I coudl have done a "copy and paste" for you.

Thanks Andres,

I was actually was hoping to hear from somebody that has used the device that 
Steve orignally posted though!

I've used several other APC products and I don't think I'd need to think twice 
about buying anything else from them.

I do kind of think APC is a little like buying stuff from Sony... you pay a 
bit of a brand tax just to have the APC logo printed on it.  However I think 
that the APC logo on something means alot more than the Sony logo :)

You can. logrotate just automates this 'mv'. It will optionally also
compress older log files. And purge even older ones. It can also avoid
the 'mv' if there was no change. Or rotate by size and not just by time
(it is typically run from a daily cron job). In other words, it is
a "fire and forget" tool.

Naturally you can build one on your own.

Yep, a PDU is really just a broad term for anything that takes power input and 
distributes it to many devices - so yes a power strip/bar would be classified 
as a PDU...technically.  However I'd probably expect to get laughed at if I 
called a power bar a PDU!

There are pretty big differences between the $5 power bar you can buy at 
walmart and stuff that people typically put into server cabinets.

technically this device specifically would be a "Switched PDU" the switched 
part meaning it has the ability to turn on/off individual ports.  The 
interface to turning those ports on/off however is irrelavent to its device 
classification it could be a web interface like this device, a telnet/ssh 
interface, it might not even have any remote capability and just have 
physically switches for each port.

If you use the same logrotate file for both the logs and Master.csv, it
should have a 'logger reload' line, as you must re-open the logs.

E.g: /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk

/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/messages /var/log/asterisk/full 
/var/log/asterisk/*_log /var/log/asterisk/cdr-*/Master.csv {
  missingok
  sharedscripts
  postrotate
asterisk -rx "logger rotate" >/dev/null 2>&1
  endscript
}


But if you have different configuration for the CSV file (e.g: rotate it
by size as well, or daily, unlike the system default, which is weekly),
you can put it in a separate logrotate file, that will not rotate logs.

E.g: 

/var/log/asterisk/debug /var/log/asterisk/messages /var/log/asterisk/full 
/var/log/asterisk/*_log {
  missingok
  sharedscripts
  postrotate
asterisk -rx "logger rotate" >/dev/null 2>&1
  endscript
}

/var/log/asterisk/cdr-*/Master.csv {
  daily
  missingok
  sharedscripts
}

We have used the APC 8 port version for abour 5 years now.  It is rock 
solid.   The connected load metering is a very nice feature as well.  
The cost is about $380.

Don't.  A 'mv' is enough.  This is also the case for any of the CDR csv files,
not just Master.csv.

logrotate can be used to rotate any files you want. So just add
a logrotate definition to /etc/logrotate.d/asterisk:

/path/to/my/cdr-custom/Master.csv {
daily
rotate 7
compress
missingok
notifempty
}

Just FYI - the APC model I mentioned in my last post will do load metering... 
it'll cost you about twice as much as the one Steve posted however. The sale 
price that is, couple hundred more than the regular price.

Its just a PDU (power distribution unit) that has a web-interface (accessed 
via Ethernet)... it looks like it has the added bonus of having some RS232C 
ports that you can either attach a modem (to dial-into the device) or to 
connect to serial-console based equipment, like certain routers and switches

so that you can access their serial console remotely.

Essentially its the equivalent of the APC AP7902 - 
http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7902 it
has 
a couple feature differences, but for the most part they do the same thing.

However, the cost is significantly less than than the APC model.  

I don't have any experience with either however.

All in all it looks like a decent product... i'd be interested in hearing
from 
anybody that might of been using them for a long period of time (1-2yrs+).  
I'm pretty picky about power distribution, i've seen bad power cause too

logrotate can be used to rotate any files you want. So just add

rotate 7

Its just a PDU (power distribution unit) that has a web-interface (accessed 
via Ethernet)... it looks like it has the added bonus of having some RS232C 
ports that you can either attach a modem (to dial-into the device) or to 
connect to serial-console based equipment, like certain routers and switches 
so that you can access their serial console remotely.

Essentially its the equivalent of the APC AP7902 - 
http://www.apc.com/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7902 it has 
a couple feature differences, but for the most part they do the same thing.

However, the cost is significantly less than than the APC model.  

I don't have any experience with either however.

All in all it looks like a decent product... i'd be interested in hearing from 
anybody that might of been using them for a long period of time (1-2yrs+).  
I'm pretty picky about power distribution, i've seen bad power cause too many 
problems in my computing history.

Re: [asterisk-users] *OT* DLI Ethernet Power Controller $289 (I paid $200 for a two port "webswitch")

2008-06-15 Thread Steve Totaro
Ethernet or dialup it seems (as well as automated ping/no reply
programmed reboots.)  So it has a browser, modem, outlets, ethernet
ports, RS232.

It seems like you could use this unit to access a box that only has an
RS232 connection remotely, rather than connecting it to a server in
the same rack, so it must have hyperterm functionality too...

Again, I just ordered so I cannot say how good this unit actually is
or comment on anything beyond the claimed functionality.

Thanks,
Steve T

Re: [asterisk-users] *OT* DLI Ethernet Power Controller $289 (I paid$200 for a two port "webswitch")

2008-06-15 Thread Steve Totaro
I don't believe so.  I just placed my order.  It sounds similar to the
WebSwitch I currently use in that you manually reboot/power cycle
outlets and setup automatic reboots activated by no reply to pings.

I know there are some websites that can show you which servers
generally eat more power.  I get a general idea by the heat they put
off but I know that is obviously not going to give me numbers.  A
multimeter at the outlet would certainly give you more accurate
figures.

Looking at this unit, it appears you really only get control of 8
separate circuits but that is still much better than the WebSwitch I
have (2 outlets).

It also has redundant power plugs, dialup capability, RS232
connections, and powerup in a predefined sequence, all very nice
additional features over what I had.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Hey steve - great post so highly welcome. I think people need to lighten
up about commercial marketing to the asterisk users list as hardly
anyone subscribes to biz list, as long as it's a single post then that's
cool.


That to one side some questions.


Do you know if this unit has any power metering capability? I'd really
like to start measuring which of my servers are using the most power etc
and not sure from this description if this is possible.




Cheers,

Dean

Your original quote that was conveniently snipped

"I'm quite certain this is already obvious and will simply be interpreted
as a tautological affirmation of the obvious, but such co-mingling of
personal and business assets -- whether with an evidently fraudalent
purpose or not as such -- will generally not survive the "test of
reasonableness" that must be satisfied for corporate liability to not be
pierced.

In other words, if you simply pay for your house in this manner, and
then you declare bankruptcy or are sued by creditors or whatever, the
courts will scavenge this sort of thing up as evidence that your
corporate entity is a financial alter-ego to whatever degree, and
declare that your house is actually, de facto, a personal asset and can
be included in the asset classes potentially awarded by judgments to the
plaintiffs."

Quite a different tone from your original reply at the top of the
thread, you must have done some homework before replying this time.
You also changed the original scenario quite a bit to try to improve
your side of the debate by adding yachts and "various other
accouterments (edited for spelling) of high executive life"

Here is some more reading for your pleasure
http://www.nevada123.com/learning-center/cat/18

Obviously, there are much more complex and virtually untouchable ways
to protect assets but I will not go into them until you are ready,
this is just a 100 class, the 400 class costs a bit and a Masters is
considerably higher since only the really wealthy need to utilize the
tactics (not a commercial plug).

Re: [asterisk-users] cdr-custom/Master.csv rotation

2008-06-15 Thread Mark Hamilton
Yup, drive. Or in Gavin's case "Fly".
Really appreciate your help, Darryl. Thanks a lot.

I'm attempting to use this now as is, but Tzafrir points out that this might
not rotate Master.csv in /cdr-custom. In such a case, what would I need to
do?

Thanks again,
Mark.

I really do appreciate your one-liner. But is there any more insight

If they are not held open, you can can just move them away with "mv",
next CDR should just write new file.

[asterisk-users] *OT* DLI Ethernet Power Controller $289 (I paid $200 for a two port "webswitch")

2008-06-15 Thread Steve Totaro
http://www.surpluscomputers.com/store/main.aspx?p=ItemDetail&item=TOL10273

I post these items from time to time to the users list because I feel
they are useful to general Asterisk users.  I have no affiliation with
this company and do not profit in anyway besides helping others that
may be helped.

Again, if more people object to these occasional posts, I will refrain
from posting.

Anyways, I have equipment at a CoLo that I could not justify putting
in KVMoIP and really only need a reboot if machine is "locked-up".  I
found a product called a "Webswitch" that can only control two outlets
and that ran ~$200.  This is a much better deal and is rackmount and
seems much more suited to a nice clean data center with higher
capacity.

I just purchased one to replace the webswitch (going to be used for
home use) because I have many more than two devices at my colo now.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

See, I saw the quotes around channel bank more as the follow question
"what is a channel bank".  Maybe it's a language thing and perhaps the
OP can take as constructive criticism to be more to one's actual point
when asking a question.

If he really did understand what a channel bank is and was looking for
recommendations, something more direct like "Any recommendations on
which channel bank(s) I should consider using?" would have been much
more fruitful I suspect.

Sure, but all of them will give him a good idea of what one actually is,
which is really what I suspect the question was.

Agreed.  I wholeheartedly agree with soliciting for and giving product
recommendations and experiences, but questions like "what is ..." most
likely can almost always be answered from google with a little effort on
one's own behalf.

Queues in round robin might be a better strategy for your first requirements.

The last part of your requirements could easily be achieved by
creating a exten that background() a recording of the key personnel.

directed to a pool of specific sip extensions (9 extensions) where asterisk 
tries one after the other till lhe finds one of them thats actually on.i want 
to add a step for asterisk to follow which is, when a sip extension doesn't 
answer or its offline, instead of immediately transferring to voice mail, i 
want it to dial that sip holder's number so it transfers the call to his 
cellphone for example. and if he didn't answer his cellphone its then that i 
want it to direct it to voice mail.i want to add another item to the operator 
menu, instead of just receiving the call and telling the caller to either dial 
extension or 100 for operator, i want asterisk to offer the caller an 
additional option like for example pressing 2, would direct you to a list of 
key personnels with their respective extensions.please find below my

While true to some degree, I assumed he was looking for someone to
recommend a certain product based on good experiences in the Asterisk
World.

Google may be good for getting information but will turn up a good
many ads too.  Most of these ads/sites all claim to be the best.  "We
are the leaders of (such and such)"

An obvious pitfall I met was Citel gateways.  Maybe they have improved
for the Definity line, but going that route a year and a half ago made
me look very bad.  I wish I had asked on the list and got someone with
some experience to say, "think twice".

Heh, there seems to have been a few of these kinds of requests on the list 
lately eh... I think I saw one a couple days ago where somebody was asking 
about a dozen very basic questions that they were tasked with to find out of 
Asterisk was suitable for their organization... and it was seemingly like 
they were literally trying to offload their job to this list

Dude.  There's the cool new website you should check out.  It's
www.google.com.

Seriously.  This list is not full of people waiting to do the simplest
research at your request.  Spend a few minutes and do some self-help
before coming here asking the simplest, most general questions.  You are
more likely to get answers to interesting questions rather than

Re: [asterisk-users] World Cheapest Predictive Dialer!

2008-06-15 Thread Steve Totaro
Your original quote that was conveniently snipped

"I'm quite certain this is already obvious and will simply be interpreted
as a tautological affirmation of the obvious, but such co-mingling of
personal and business assets -- whether with an evidently fraudalent
purpose or not as such -- will generally not survive the "test of
reasonableness" that must be satisfied for corporate liability to not be
pierced.

In other words, if you simply pay for your house in this manner, and
then you declare bankruptcy or are sued by creditors or whatever, the
courts will scavenge this sort of thing up as evidence that your
corporate entity is a financial alter-ego to whatever degree, and
declare that your house is actually, de facto, a personal asset and can
be included in the asset classes potentially awarded by judgments to the
plaintiffs."

Quite a different tone from your original reply at the top of the
thread, you must have done some homework before replying this time.
You also changed the original scenario quite a bit to try to improve
your side of the debate by adding yachts and "various other
accouterments (edited for spelling) of high executive life"

Here is some more reading for your pleasure
http://www.nevada123.com/learning-center/cat/18

Obviously, there are much more complex and virtually untouchable ways
to protect assets but I will not go into them until you are ready,
this is just a 100 class, the 400 class costs a bit and a Masters is
considerably higher since only the really wealthy need to utilize the
tactics (not a commercial plug).

Thanks,

If they are not held open, you can can just move them away with "mv",
next CDR should just write new file.

Re: [asterisk-users] How to turn on the H323 logging on Asterisk

2008-06-15 Thread Sema Arca
Hi Richard,

I could not succeed to make my ooh323 work somehow. I can see the peers and
the users but although my exten definition states that the call should be
forwarded to a GK, Asterisk does not send it out. I also have the same
problem with registration.

Do you think you can give me some ideas? Maybe send your conf as a
reference?

Kr,
Sema

"logger reload" rotates logs. But not CSV . That's because the CSV CDR
files are not held open.
