[Asterisk-Users] Can asterisk be programmed to make alarm calls?

2004-05-13 Thread Mark Phillips
Those of you whom have a free Washington State phone number from ipkall.om
will know that one has to use the number at least every 30 days or else
the number becomes disconnected.

I have 3 numbers pointed at my asterisk my which work very well but I
still had the 30 day problem.

Is there a way that I can program asterisk to make a call to my WA numbers
so that they wont get disco'd? I'm thinking of something like a alrm
call that one has in a hotel room. YOu pick up the phone and program a
ring back time.

Hope this make sense.

Thanks

Research sample.call, write cron job to submit one every x days to
guarantee you get a call out. I suggest, every 10 days, this gives you 3
opportunities to make the call in case your computer was down or
unreachable for some reason during the month.

Sure you could even use the examples posted here and the wiki to use the
outgoing spool to make calls. Just use a crontab to place a call file in
the outgoing spool every x # of days and problem should be solved.
