  Your MTA claimed it was called SOURCE but rDNS tells the recipient MX

 I too will block emails with a non-FQDN HELO or EHLO.  I feel, however, 
that
 reverse should not have to match forward lookups for mail exchangers. 
 It's
 an assinine requirement (my box does web, mail, dns and a host of other
 services, why should I need it to be called 'mail' for both forward and
 reverse lookups just to get mail flowing?  Assinine.

 -A.


Your server does not have to be called 'mail' for DNS and rDNS to work 
properly for mail delivery.  All that is required is that a reverse lookup 
returns whatever the actual name of the server is and the server needs to 
use that same name when it issues HELO.  My server at home is called 'fs-1' 
and the one at work is 'troutdale'.  Both systems work properly just 
because I set up the DNS and rDNS records to match the names of the 
servers.  There are a lot of broken rDNS records on the internet, and 
that's not likely to change anytime soon.  I only have control of a very 
tiny portion of DNS and rDNS space, but I still feel obligated to make my 
part work properly.  It's what makes the internet work.  Would you feel OK 
driving around in your car, knowing that some large percentage of the 
street signs were not correct?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] VOIP-INFO

I queried the name servers and it looks like this site may be hosted on a 
cable or DSL system which doesn't allow static IP addresses.  It's possible 
that the DHCP and the dynamic DNS fell out of sync.  All of this is just a 
guess based on the name server results.

Karl has already stated more that once that this was NOT a credit card 
purchase.  If a credit card was not used for the purchase, why would you 
need a Ship To address on file with the credit card company?  Cory Andrews 
from VOIPSupply has also admitted that the sales rep who took the order 
made a mistake and failed to notice that a Ship To address had been 
supplied.

 Different banks have different merchant account requirements,

 use different procedures to protect themselves, and of course different
 businesses tolerate different levels of fraud.

 Some vendors require that items be shipped to an address on file to

 card for these cases which our bank has agreed is adequate in most cases.
 It's a little more time consuming but it is something that many of our

RE: [Asterisk-Users] C files of Asterisk

2005-05-25 Thread Neal Walton

Modifying the C files of asterisk is very different from modifying the 
config files.  If you are not currently a programmer, this will be a very 
long and slow process.  First, a good understanding of the C language 
programming statements and language syntax is needed.  Next, you will need 
to learn about the algorithms and data structures of programming.  There 
are many good books available at libraries and book stores which cover 
these subjects.  Next, you will need to decide which features of asterisk 
need to be modified.  Then you will need to read a large portion of the 
existing asterisk C code to learn how the program works to determine how to 
make the modifications.  Programming is very exciting and rewarding, but 
requires years of dedication to the subject to become proficient.  If you 
were wanting more immediate results, you may want to hire a programmer that 
already understands asterisk.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Channel bank of E1s? (one E1 input -- 2 x E1 output)

2005-04-29 Thread Neal Walton
Many channel banks have two T-1 connectors and support a feature called 
'drop and insert'.  This allows some of the DS0 channels to be cross 
connected from one T-1 connection to the other.  The first T-1 connection 
can go to the telco or an interface card in a computer, and the second T-1 
can go to another channel bank.  Some of the channels can be dropped off at 
the first channel bank while the rest can continue on to the second channel 
bank.  You are asking about E-1 and PBX instead of T-1 and channel bank, 
but if I understand the 'drop and insert' correctly, and if your hardware 
supports it, this may work for you.

Subject:Re: [Asterisk-Users] TDM400P Revision question.

I don't know how everyone else is doing but my woes are continuing. I'm 
really starting to dislike these Digium cards.

Hardware:

Digium TDM400P (REV G according to the silk screening on the board) 2xFX0, 
2xFXS purchased in August/September 2004
Dell Precision 420 (PIII-733, 512MB RAM nothing fancy but not doing too 
much either)

Software:

Zaptel, Libpri and Asterisk (v1-0) downloaded and re-compiled from CVS 
today (April 17)
SuSE 9.1 (Kernel 2.6.4-52-default) configured as a life-support system for 
Asterisk only... no other apps running.

Here's are my issues:

1. dmesg reports the card as Revision E/F although Rev G visually confirmed 
(see below)

Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on major 196
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device :03:05.0
PCI: Sharing IRQ 11 with :00:1f.3
Freshmaker version: 71
Freshmaker passed register test
Module 0: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode)
Module 1: Installed -- AUTO FXO (FCC mode)
Module 2: Installed -- AUTO FXS/DPO
Module 3: Installed -- AUTO FXS/DPO
Found a Wildcard TDM: Wildcard TDM400P REV E/F (4 modules)

2. Low ringing voltage still (~44V AC). I have used the boostringer=1 
option when loading wcfxs, did I miss something at compile time?
3. Rogue on-hook 109V AC voltage (11V AC off-hook) on both FXS ports. I 
have conformed that it is being generated by the card itself. I repeat, it 
is not being induced on the wire. After finding it a the wall jack I was 
able to sample the same 109V AC at the card itself with no cables attached.
4. Random calls dropped on the FXO ports from both FXS and SIP clients. The 
drop is usually preceded by a 2-3 second buzzing sound on the line. This  
 occurs with both incoming and outgoing calls.

It should be noted that the card is sharing an IRQ with another device (the 
USB controller to be exact). No matter what slot the card is inserted in it 
ends up sharing an IRQ. To that end I made sure it was sharing with an 
unused device (no USB devices attached).

Looking for help here...

Thanks,

Ian

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Local Echo

2005-04-13 Thread Neal Walton
Hi,
It's not probable that the delay is just in the sidetone.  It is more 
probable that the echo is caused by reflected energy somewhere very far 
downline, perhaps even at the far terminating end of the call.  Yes, I know 
that the person at the far end of the call does not hear an echo, but that 
doesn't mean that the far end is not the cause of the problem.  Think about 
this:  If I scream and the energy is reflected by the wall of a building, I 
will hear an echo.  If you stand at that wall and listen, you will only 
hear me scream but not the echo.  You will never hear an echo at the point 
where the reflection occurs because there will be no delay at that point. 
 You will only hear an echo somewhere away from the reflection point so 
that the signal will have some time delay caused by the travel path.  If 
you hear an echo, the reflection is somewhere away from you so that there 
can be a delay caused by the signal going somewhere and then coming back. 
 Try this experiment: call a number that is answered directly by the 
asterisk box and see if you get the echo.  If you do, it is definitely a 
local problem.
Regards,
Neal

 Your explanation helps.

 You are correct.  There is delay in the sidetone.  It annoys me, but the
 other party doesn't her it.  (You're right that the other party is on a
 POTS line.)

 I assume that the echo must be between the SIP phone and Asterisk.
 Since the actuall call sounds fine to both me and the other party, then
 the Zapata stuff must be working fine.  Right??

No, thats what everyone keeps telling you.
Everything is working fine on both ZAP and SIP sides, just that there is
some delay, and therefore you hear echo.

So start reading the advice that other people are offering.

One thing that other people haven't mentioned, is that if you are not in
the US, then you should also set the OPERMODE value to your country.

 Interesting, If I call someone who doesn't pick up right away, I can
 still hear myself echo really badly if I talk into the phone while it is
 still ringing at the other end.  Does this help??

Strange/interesting, but I personally don't know enough about this to
comment further.

2005-04-12 Thread Neal Walton
Hi,
The GPL is about _distributing code_.  If someone takes some hardware and 
installs GPL code and lists the item on ebay, that is not the same as 
_distributing code_.  If someone bids on the item, and the hardware 
containing the code is shipped to that person, then the code was 
distributed and the GPL notice must be sent with the code.  I don't think 
there is any obligation to distribute the GPL notice _in advance_ of 
distributing the actual GPL code.  The notice and the code can be 
distributed together at the same time.  The source code must be provided on 
request, but doesn't have to be shipped with the binaries.

 I don't think the GPL obliges you to give credit to

 In fact, I think that's a key difference between the GPL

Actually, the GPL does require credit to be given, at
least in the sense that the source code is modified and
not necessarily in the advertisement as I understand it.

Please take a look at the Developers archive as there is
an ongoing discussion about another distro that is for
Windows that is also dealing with the GPL issue. I am not
completely sure that this falls under the exact same
category, but I believe it is really close. Just in this
case it would probably deal more with AMP than Asterisk
directly.

But not having this sellers code, I connot confirm nor

Can anyone chime in on whether or not this seller must
