That really depends on many things: - did you download packages or source ? - if you did download source, did you have the appropiate pwlib and openh323 libs installed (h323 resides in channels/h323, check it's README) Slán leat, Martin List-Petersen Dublin, Eire (contact info on --> http://www.marlow.dk/) ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I was just wondering if it was done on purpose. I installed asterisk from the source, and your are right i had neither the openh323 nor the pwlib library installed. Apparently it was not done on purpose. However, if i asked the question it is because i always thought that H323 was more robust and much better than SIP. But since i joined the * world, it looks like I was wrong and that new development are going towards SIP rather than H323.

There are 2 different channel drivers for h323. Keep that in mind. > However, if i asked the question it is because i always thought that H323 > was more robust and much better than SIP.

H.323 is something nobody real will deal with, but it's still supported because a lot of the old fashioned carriers do H.323.

According to you specialists, are we looking at the end of H323? or maybe i just did not install asterisk properly :-). H.323 support for Asterisk based on the original code (asterisk-oh323) is far from dying. Check: http://www.inaccessnetworks.com/projects/asterisk-oh323 for the latest code.

[...] Nobody real deals with it and it's supported by old fashioned carriers? Please, don't thak this as an insult, but you need to qualify that your background obviously doesn't include any carrier-class bulk VoIP termination whatsoever when you make broad statement like that. Millions and milions of minutes of voice and fax traffic each day are carried over h.323, for end users that don't even know they are using VoIP, and in most cases don't even know what VoIP is. Minutes handled by bold "old" and new companies. Now if you wanted to say that it's not in vogue for soft PBXen and key systems to support h.323, I'll buy that. But I'm going to guess that voice traffic over SIP is a mere fraction of voice traffic over h.323 on any given day.
