[Astlinux-users] Permanent Changes

Hello all, Another quick question: I need to add something to /etc/init.d/asterisk Is there a way to do it while insuring that it will be there after a reboot? Thanks, PDW -- Check out the vibrant tech community on o

Hi Paul, If you just need to execute commands at startup, create a "/mnt/kd/rc.local" script, make it executable (chmod 700 /mnt/kd/rc.local) and it will be executed on every boot, at the end of startup, after Asterisk is started, for example: -- /mnt/kd/rc.local -- #!/bin/sh . /etc/rc.conf ma

Hello Lonnie, I need to make sure that Dahdi is up an running before I start Asterisk. Right now, all of the T1 channels are "stuck" in an active state after a boot. I have to go into the CLI and do a dahdi restart to clear them. I was going to put an arbitrary 30 second delay in before sta

I think what Paul needs to do, though he didn't mention to the list, is a delay after Dahdi, to allow additional time before proceeding. In certain instances, Dahdi needs additional time to do something ( can't now remember what or why ) but there needs to be a pause before the process proceeds

In much earlier non AstLinux installs, where Zaptel and asterisk were started in rc.local, we used to insert a sleep 10 between Zaptel and starting Asterisk. In current configurations I believe this process takes place elsewhere John Novack Paul Wills wrote: Hello Lonnie, I need to make sur

Thanks John for the extra info, Looking at the order of the startup services: -- ls -l /etc/runlevels/default/S* -- dahdi occurs before elocal, and then asterisk later on. So make a "/mnt/kd/rc.elocal" script ... -- /mnt/kd/rc.elocal -- #!/bin/sh DELAY=10 printf "[elocal] Delay $DELAY second

Thanks all, I added the rc.elocal script and made it a 30 second delay. It seems to have cleared out the T1 channel bank this time but I have no reason why. When I boot, the T1 goes busy after about a minute. It appears that Asterisk booting it will clear everything after the delay. Thanks f

You may want to try and lower the sleep delay time You may also want to examine Asterisk and the modules.conf and noload the modules you are not ever going to use This should speed up the loading of Asterisk. There are LOTS of stuff we will never use I assume you have also looked in system.co

Also, possibly the DAHDIMODS variable in /mnt/kd/rc.conf.d/user.conf may be missing a module. DAHDI https://doc.astlinux.org/userdoc:dahdi Lonnie On Dec 18, 2016, at 4:45 PM, John Novack_PIV2 wrote: > You may want to try and lower the sleep delay time > > You may also want to examine Asteri

Hi group I have been playing with this softphone which is looking really promising, especially Asterisk BLF (finally). The smartphone softphone looks great too and has a number of codecs supported including Opus. I think this is not available yet in Astlinux (am I correct?) so what would be the

[Astlinux-users] Opus CODEC (Was: Zoiper PC and Smartphone Softphone)

2016-12-18 Thread Lonnie Abelbeck
Michael, Good question, quick answer if Zoiper supports the SILK CODEC, that is almost as good as Opus since Opus is an extension of SILK. Your question got me looking, for a long time Digium was worried about the legal status of Opus ... they are still worried but here is the current stance:

Thanks Lonnie. Yes that's a big hassle that I don't really want to be a part of. Strangely Zoiper does not support SILK! Looks like iLBC it is or just put up with plain old G711. Regards Michael Knill -Original Message- From: Lonnie Abelbeck Reply-To: AstLinux List Date: Monday, 19 Dece
