00:10.15 | scooby2 | how many contractors hang out here? |
00:11.54 | timeshell | There is a huge fundamental flaw in pbx_config.c with regards to queuing. :( |
00:16.03 | timeshell | Unless I'm missing something, it would be impossible to configure an agent with a single extension using users.conf and also have the same extension use voicemail without having the queued calls have the possibility of going to a specific agent's voicemail. |
00:17.04 | timeshell | There appears to be no direct way to communicate from a queue to stdexten that the call is from a queue and therefore shouldn't go to voicemail. |
00:19.24 | scooby2 | sounds complicated |
00:19.36 | scooby2 | i can't get this stinking directory to work |
00:21.45 | scooby2 | i'm going to have to hire someone if i dont figure this out soon |

00:42.09 | scooby2 | would I also need to include the local extensions there so those are usable? |
00:42.19 | scooby2 | i'm assuming so |
00:43.06 | timeshell | sounds reasonable |
00:43.16 | scooby2 | thank you very much |
00:43.19 | timeshell | In fact, remove that same line from the macro |
00:43.24 | timeshell | You won't need it there. |
00:43.29 | timeshell | Let me know if it works |

01:38.39 | scooby2 | though for some reason it cost like $280 more |
01:38.57 | scooby2 | i would think no vista would mean a little cheaper or same price |

05:10.35 | Nivex | $COWORKER saw it in the print edition and handed it to me :) |
05:10.55 | drmessano | Yeah |
05:12.34 | hax | would it be possible with asterisk to forward calls to my cell phone, but if my cell phone doesn't answer, have it go to asterisk voicemail instead of my cell's voicemail? |
05:13.37 | drmessano | set the timeout for less than your cell phones timeout |

05:14.54 | drmessano | Change your greeting to a SIT tone |

05:15.11 | hax | ? |

05:15.56 | hax | well, i'm new :P |
05:16.08 | hax | i get it now :/ |
05:16.54 | drmessano | I dont know the correct answer on that.. I think once Asterisk hands the call off, it's handed off |
05:17.10 | drmessano | I can't wrap my head around doing it differently |
05:18.39 | hax | yeah, heh |
05:19.28 | hax | drmessano: there's some commercial services i've seen that have the PBX call your cell phone first, then you touchtone whether or not you want to accept the call... but that'd still require the PBX to somehow know if the cellphone didn't pick up, otherwise it'd just hang there and never get a dialtone, plus leave a long voicemail |

05:23.10 | drmessano | Grandcentral? |
05:25.21 | drmessano | They have a poll question "Would you ever consider an Open Source PBX?" |
05:25.34 | hax | drmessano: actually, gotvmail was the one somebody linked me to, but there's a bunch that do this |
05:25.37 | drmessano | 39% - Yes, in the future |
05:25.54 | drmessano | 49% - We already do |
05:26.06 | drmessano | 12% - No, never |
05:26.24 | drmessano | That's an awesome sample |
05:26.38 | hax | heh |
05:27.23 | coppice | probably a pretty skewed sample, too |
05:27.34 | drmessano | Why would you say that? |
05:28.11 | coppice | the kind of people reading the article will not be a cross section of PBX users |
05:28.23 | drmessano | So? |
05:29.03 | coppice | the biggest group reading such an article is usually existing users looking for affirmation of their choice |
05:30.32 | drmessano | I dunno about that..if it was a VoIP centric website, yes |
05:32.18 | coppice | it doesn't matter what kind of site it is. this is normal human behaviour. word gets around the existing users, they all read, and many vote. its a normal thing you have to allow for when judging the validity of polls. |
05:32.44 | drmessano | ok |
05:34.06 | drmessano | So that doesn't work both ways? |
05:34.27 | *** join/#asterisk Wayhigh (i=noid@www.kevinlynn.com) |
05:34.42 | coppice | what is the other way? |
05:34.49 | drmessano | A bunch of Cisco admins could have just gone there and voted NO just the same |
05:34.57 | drmessano | Whats the difference? |
05:35.26 | coppice | because far few non-users will be drawn to read the article. its the fan effect |
05:36.00 | drmessano | That doesn't really address my question |
05:37.32 | coppice | if they published a britney spears article and had a poll for "who is a better singer, britney spear or placido domingo" you would get a similarly skewed answer for the same reason. |
05:37.40 | drmessano | That's like telling me people that dislike MS aren't drawn to vote down in polls questioning Windows use.. |
05:38.05 | hax | drmessano: so... any thought on the whole "how can asterisk tell if a cell phone's voicemail picked up" thing? |
05:38.11 | coppice | asterisk doesn't polarise people the way windows does |
05:38.32 | drmessano | lol |
05:38.42 | drmessano | You ever talk to a diehard Cisco admin? lol |
05:38.50 | drmessano | Apparently not |
05:38.52 | Qwell | ever talked to a Cisco employee? |
05:39.03 | drmessano | Nope |
05:39.08 | Qwell | it's not pretty |
05:39.59 | coppice | most of the PBX world still doesn't really notice asterisk is there. expecting it to polarise people is rather pretentious |
05:41.01 | drmessano | Well, I suppose that's the case if you are blisfully ignorant to the fact that many have, and have attempted to counter the usefulness of it |
05:41.01 | Wayhigh | Yesterday I stumbled across an asterisk install cd that contains Centos, Asterisk, freeswitch, etc. but isn't trixbox, asterisk@home, or asterisknow. Any idea which it is? (I think it's something quite new but I may be mistaken) |
05:42.09 | drmessano | In case you hadn't noticed, there are closed source vendors that dislike open source, regardless of the size or scope of the product |
05:43.15 | coppice | in case you hadn't noticed, only 12% in that poll said they would not consider an open source option. I find the remarkably low, considering the attitude of many large IT departments who suck at the MS nipple |
05:44.28 | obnauticus | Now this is confusing. |
05:44.30 | drmessano | Well, I think you are unaware of how many Microsoft shops suffer from lock-in due to user or application support issues that would love to flip a switch and use open source in a heartbeat.. It's not always about making a simple preference choice |
05:44.33 | obnauticus | I got a 43U server rack ... |
05:44.37 | obnauticus | and it's in my room |
05:44.43 | obnauticus | this is going to suck. |
05:44.43 | obnauticus | lol |
05:45.10 | drmessano | I think the reality would surprise you |
05:47.04 | coppice | drmessano: you obviously haven't seen how IT works in many many large companies. the IT department goes ballistic when they see anything non-MS in the place. its a threat to them. GPL3 has played into their hands. I know several major corporates who have used its vague wording about patents to have all new Linux distros banned |
05:48.10 | Wayhigh | coppice: that may be true in a lot of places but thankfully the .gov seems like they're starting to get some clue |
05:49.05 | drmessano | Actually, coppice, I work in a large company and I know exactly how it works.. You would be suprised how many times an M$ solution is deployed begrudgingly simply because of the need to deploy a solution that matches existing infrastructre |
05:49.31 | coppice | it depends on the company and its culture |

05:54.14 | CrashSys | The best tagling I like for M$ is "It's a stable company and a commercially supported product"... no matter how crappy the solution is... |
05:54.30 | CrashSys | err tagline |
05:54.45 | drmessano | Notice they never put "stable" and "product" together? |
05:54.52 | coppice | yeah, and what is stable typically full of? |
05:55.20 | CrashSys | but stable does not relate to product |
05:55.32 | drmessano | I know.. that was my point lol |
05:55.32 | CrashSys | just that there will be a company to call about the product for the rest of your life |
05:55.41 | drmessano | "Its a stable... company" |
05:55.53 | coppice | that's what VAX users thoguht, too :-) |
05:56.10 | CrashSys | I get a kick when I hear the M$ guys go "Wow, this server's been up a month! That's why exchange and SQL are bombing, it needs a reboot!" |
05:56.31 | CrashSys | 3-months is some kind of holy grail of uptime |
05:56.35 | drmessano | You know what's hilarious |
05:56.41 | CrashSys | that we bitch about it? |
05:56.58 | ManxPower | that we accept it |
05:57.19 | drmessano | I remember months of uptime from windows 2000 boxes BEFORE Windows Automatic updates the company mandates to install the patches on the day of |
05:58.02 | drmessano | I have boxes on their on segment that go 4 or 5 months without a reboot.. |
05:58.24 | drmessano | But I think thats allowed M$ to go back to the "It only need to run for 31 days" mentality |
05:58.35 | drmessano | Damn if you can get Exchange 2003 to last 45 days lol |
05:58.49 | CrashSys | I've had win 2003 servers with 9-10 month uptimes... but it was just active directory, file sharing, and network fax... no exchange/SQL hogs |
05:59.25 | CrashSys | and no automatic updates |
05:59.48 | drmessano | Now they know everyone is rebooting every month, so they only have to shoot for 31 days uptime for anything |
05:59.50 | drmessano | Bastards |
06:00.24 | CrashSys | If microsoft wasn't 90% of the desktop/application market, they'd be LONG out of business... |
06:00.26 | drmessano | It's alright.. they're still 5 or 10 years behind everyone else |
06:00.55 | drmessano | 2 years ago they couldnt even spell VoIP |
06:01.42 | drmessano | LCS was a glorified IM server that happened to use SIP.. now it's "VoIP" |
06:01.44 | CrashSys | The one thing that M$ has the market cornered on is network/application integration... |
06:01.48 | coppice | actually, they've had VoIP stuff for a very long time, they just haven't got any part of it except netmeeting to move for them |
06:03.41 | drmessano | M$ does a good job of poorly implementing things |
06:04.08 | coppice | they win by strategically poorly implementing things |
06:04.42 | CrashSys | Implementation sucks, but they intergrate everything to everything... |
06:05.22 | CrashSys | and they do it so it's point-click simple... |
06:05.29 | CrashSys | and that's about it... |
06:06.36 | coppice | bad implementation has been strategic for their lockin. several times in court they have used "we are just lousy engineers" as a successful defence |
06:06.38 | drmessano | I'm still not impressed with LCS or OLCS |
06:07.02 | drmessano | "VoIP as you are, because OLCS doesn't work with PSTN hardware" |
06:07.26 | CrashSys | I still liked the whole hotmail fiasco... |
06:07.45 | Qwell | which one?... |
06:07.53 | CrashSys | worked great on linux servers... then they installed Exchange 2003 and it bombed... |
06:07.59 | Qwell | ^^ bsd |

06:08.11 | drmessano | *nix |
06:08.12 | drmessano | lol |
06:08.17 | Qwell | and more like 2000 |
06:08.23 | drmessano | Yeah |
06:08.28 | drmessano | Exchange 2k |
06:08.36 | drmessano | It got somewhat better with 2003 |
06:08.42 | drmessano | 2000 was a horrible POS |
06:09.09 | Qwell | I doubt it was really even exchange that killed it - probably iis |
06:09.33 | CrashSys | Didn't they end up with 4x the exchange servers to handle the same load? |
06:09.37 | drmessano | If you ever read the history of Exchange server, it really sounds like "Two guys and Devkit" |
06:09.39 | Qwell | something like that |
06:09.41 | drmessano | If you ever read the history of Exchange server, it really sounds like "Two guys and A Devkit" |
06:09.55 | CrashSys | LOL |
06:10.01 | drmessano | No, really.. |
06:10.20 | CrashSys | I believe it, just never heard it put that way :) |
06:10.41 | CrashSys | Exchange itself looks like some half-ass VB-code tacked onto active directory... |
06:10.46 | drmessano | "We fixed some bugs, made POP work, so we decided we could release it as a product and not just use it internally... so Exchange 4.5 was born" |
06:10.48 | drmessano | Really |
06:11.47 | drmessano | I take that back |

06:14.22 | drmessano | Generally platforms hang around together |
06:14.53 | drmessano | Exchange 2007 hasn't had widespread adoption due to the Server 03/Exchange 03 combos "working" |
06:15.06 | drmessano | 08 will be affected by Vista, I think |
06:15.13 | CrashSys | I'll gladly buy a copy of XP because it's fairly stable and it's what my adobe/games run on... |
06:15.37 | drmessano | Slowly I think things are unraveling for them.. SLOWLY |
06:15.47 | drmessano | By no means is 2009 the year of the big switch |
06:16.03 | drmessano | But web apps are thinning the herd a little |
06:16.18 | CrashSys | Other then that it's openoffice/firefox/etc... |
06:16.44 | drmessano | Office apps are even becoming less important |
06:17.45 | CrashSys | Yeah... a slow migration from desktop to network app's... |

06:32.29 | drmessano | or |
06:32.48 | drmessano | Their fake admission of suckiness, in their attempt to be "open" |
06:33.16 | drmessano | "It was no secret to use that everyone disliked Happy Fun Mail 7.. we hated it too" |
06:33.20 | drmessano | Yeah right |
06:33.24 | drmessano | us* |
06:34.16 | ManxPower | I don't think I've ever been to myspace |
06:35.30 | drmessano | I tried to MySpace, so I could be all hip with the 20 year olds at work.. It lowered my IQ too much to support breathing and cardiovascular processes |
06:36.20 | drmessano | ~idk |
06:36.31 | drmessano | bah |
06:36.46 | CrashSys | I went to myspace once because some chick gave me that instead of her phone number... it was full of 12 year olds complaining about being bored and 20-something's bitching about working... |
06:36.54 | drmessano | HA |
06:37.06 | CrashSys | so I closed the firefox tab and filed it away under "Been there, done that" |
06:37.11 | drmessano | "Being an adult is like, so teh suck" |
06:37.33 | drmessano | "Liek, i complately had to pay my rent, and I was like oh hell no" |
06:37.47 | drmessano | Yeah |
06:37.50 | CrashSys | or "God, I worked today, and the manager asked me to sweep the floor AND clean the counter... who does he think he is?" |
06:37.54 | *** join/#asterisk ahbritto (n=guest@adsl-69-104-3-183.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) |
06:37.58 | drmessano | HA! |
06:37.59 | drmessano | Yeah |
06:38.22 | drmessano | I had an underling send out a myspace bulletin.. ok |
06:38.27 | drmessano | I was on his friends list.. |
06:38.57 | drmessano | "Theres this nasty AIM virus going around.. So dont click a link that says blah blah blah. I got it here at work, and it was nasty" |
06:39.17 | CrashSys | Ahhh, yes underlings... Have them do your evil bidding while you work your dastardly deeds in the lab! |
06:39.17 | drmessano | First I heard of it... from a myspace bulletin |
06:39.31 | drmessano | No phone call that we had a virus on a mission critical machine |
06:39.56 | CrashSys | I would immediately reply with an e-mail that had "Blah blah blah" in the subject line |
06:40.19 | drmessano | Long story short, I ended up remoting in and remotely crashing apps on a few machines until he got so freaked out, he called me and told me about this virus he got on the machines the other day |
06:40.46 | drmessano | I told him he was stupid and how close I came to firing him, he promised to never do it again, so sorry, blah |
06:40.53 | drmessano | But it was great.. myspace bulletin |
06:41.48 | CrashSys | I also want to create a website called "www.downloadspyware.com" with spyware that's easy to remove... that way all the idiots can download spyware and meet their daily quota's without seriously screwing up their system... |
06:41.55 | CrashSys | Another windows feature, spyware... |
06:42.11 | drmessano | ...and trixbox |
06:42.16 | drmessano | Errrr uMMMM |
06:42.43 | drmessano | Yeah, how many Linux apps begin with "anti-" |
06:43.43 | CrashSys | Quite a few... and most of them deal with windows programs |
06:44.32 | timeshell | Ok, I've added a fully functional feature to the asterisk-gui that will allow a queue to not go to voicemail when queued to an agent with voicemail. |
06:44.35 | CrashSys | protecting windows from itself :) |
06:44.50 | denon | drmessano: you mean like anti-aliasing? |
06:45.15 | CrashSys | I was guessing anti-spam, anti-spyware, anti-fishing... |
06:45.18 | timeshell | What do I have to do to get it added to the branch? |
06:45.41 | denon | yeah .. |
06:45.50 | denon | but I was pointing out that it was a silly statement of him to make :) |
06:46.00 | drmessano | Norton Anti-User 2008 |
06:46.05 | drmessano | No |
06:46.21 | drmessano | I didn't say "none".. I left it to be less than completely exclusionary :) |
06:47.03 | denon | well, you said how many.. |
06:47.15 | denon | so antigravitaattori counds |
06:47.30 | drmessano | Well, even a 20 to 1 ratio would still prove my point |
06:48.13 | denon | spose, I do tire of all the anti-OS stuff though |
06:48.21 | drmessano | Knowing how many "anti-" apps there are for windows, i'd say 20 to 1 was being generous :) |
06:48.28 | denon | usually when someone can't make something work on whatever OS, I tend to blame the user before the OS |
06:49.04 | denon | 'cause hey, they run stable cars on windows, stable routers on vxworks .. just 'cause whatever user can't do it, doesn't mean it's the OS's fault |
06:49.31 | timeshell | I blame Windows |
06:49.41 | CrashSys | what he said |
06:49.45 | denon | yeah, 'cause it's trendy to hate microsoft |
06:49.49 | timeshell | lol |
06:49.49 | timeshell | No |
06:49.51 | timeshell | MS sucks |
06:49.52 | drmessano | No |
06:50.09 | denon | timeshell: how would you know? you probably claim to have not touched windows in years |
06:50.12 | drmessano | Windows isn't the problem.. It's the applications, Microsoft and otherwise, that run on Windows |
06:50.20 | timeshell | denon: nope |
06:50.26 | denon | drmessano: plenty of buggy linux apps.. |
06:50.28 | timeshell | denon: I support an office full of it |
06:50.33 | denon | just look at asterisk 1.6 <G> |
06:50.34 | drmessano | Sure there are |
06:51.02 | drmessano | But Windows applications are poorly written because flashy GUI's are all that is needed to make a 1.0 |
06:51.10 | timeshell | lol |
06:51.18 | timeshell | sad, but true |
06:51.29 | denon | timeshell: how would you like to support that same office full of linux/open office users, saying "how come this doc file won't open" or "how come this powerpoint from my vendor looks different?" |
06:52.13 | drmessano | I take my example earlier of 7 applications that I upgraded that suddenly forced themselves to "Start with Windows" when I had explicitely unchecked those options after installing the applications the first time |
06:52.35 | timeshell | denon: I'm working towards that. :p |
06:52.39 | drmessano | I never changed my mind.. nor did I bypass an installation default |
06:52.40 | denon | shrugs, that's no different than when package managers screw up and stuff things in the wrong places |
06:52.46 | denon | we've all seen it |
06:53.21 | timeshell | All I can say is every OS has it's place. |
06:53.24 | timeshell | However, |
06:53.37 | timeshell | I will also say that I will never purchase another MS OS higher than XP |
06:53.39 | denon | blame poor coders then, not the OS - it's just as easy to stick in an init.d entry as it is to put a registry key in for startup |
06:54.03 | drmessano | I'm not blaming the OS |
06:54.27 | timeshell | I am. :D |
06:54.27 | drmessano | I clearly stated that earlier |
06:54.27 | denon | drmessano: ok, so I guess I'm talking to timeshell then |
06:54.27 | denon | hehe |
06:54.35 | timeshell | Every time MS makes Windows more secure, something breaks. |
06:54.36 | denon | anyway, I could care less what platform people choose |
06:54.56 | timeshell | Which could have been a well written program before but no longer works with the newest security patch or service pack. |
06:55.06 | drmessano | I do think Windows has it's issues, but the pport coding of Win32 programmers is something that is continually ignored.. |
06:55.13 | denon | timeshell: 2.4, 2.6 |
06:55.20 | denon | it happens on every OS |
06:55.22 | timeshell | recompile |
06:55.32 | drmessano | Theres no such thing as a buggy windows app, it HAS to be Windows.. what else could it be.. Windows sucks, right? |
06:55.33 | timeshell | :D |
06:55.36 | denon | just that msft rolls out updates that don't require the user to rebuild all their apps |
06:55.54 | denon | timeshell: kernel updates can be horrific, depending on what's installed |
06:56.04 | timeshell | denon: I know, I've been there. |
06:56.09 | denon | I doubt you know many users that have had XP SP2 or such make their system unbootable |
06:56.19 | denon | but you wouldn't be at all surprosed to see a 2.6 upgrade do that |
06:56.50 | timeshell | denon: Heh, it took MS to get to XP to get that right though |
06:57.08 | timeshell | How many Win2K and WinNT systems have you seen die with simple updates. I've seen many. |
06:57.18 | denon | ... so you're saying MS has gotten there, but linux hasn't? |
06:57.28 | drmessano | How long did it take to get Linux to not suck? |
06:57.36 | denon | drmessano: still waiting :) |
06:57.43 | timeshell | I've seen XP have it's share of problems. Albeit not as many as NT4 and Win2K |
06:58.07 | denon | anyway, I blame the user, not the OS |
06:58.20 | timeshell | Especially in recovery on different hardware. |
06:58.39 | timeshell | Vanilla Linux is usually take the HDD and stick in a new computer and away you go. |
06:58.48 | timeshell | Windows XP and 2003 stick have a hard time doing that. |
06:58.58 | drmessano | If you think about it, Windows NT 3.1 to Windows XP was only 9 years.. Linux has been around longer |
06:59.01 | denon | well, Windows tends to load a specific HAL if the hardware can support it. You can always do a generic if you expect to shuffle it around |
06:59.06 | denon | same for chipset support |
06:59.15 | denon | just like you'd do a linux kernel with tons of unused crap in it |
06:59.36 | timeshell | Linux will usually still boot where Windows get's stuck. |
06:59.39 | CrashSys | someone mention redhat? |
06:59.51 | drmessano | But coding for Windows is easier, and it's easier to make the same canned shit mistakes over and over too lol |
06:59.58 | denon | timeshell: I'm saying windows won't "get stuck" if you pre-load lots of chipset support and a generic kernel |
07:00.12 | denon | and there are tons of tools to move windows between dissimilar hardware if you didn't |
07:00.48 | *** join/#asterisk AJayMN (n=mypocket@71-82-218-158.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com) |
07:00.53 | timeshell | well, we all have our opinions don't we. :D I've got to get back to my coding. |
07:00.54 | timeshell | :D |
07:01.07 | drmessano | heh |
07:01.36 | AJayMN | Anyone ever used a Netgear WGR613V ? |
07:01.45 | denon | at least we can all agree on world domination via AmigaOS |
07:01.54 | drmessano | HA |
07:01.57 | CrashSys | I was guessing BeOS |
07:01.58 | drmessano | BeOS FTW |

07:02.16 | denon | ok, fine - compromise .. VMS |
07:02.24 | denon | it's been cluster-ready for like 20 years! |
07:02.29 | drmessano | FreeBSD is the only REAL OS, come on people |
07:02.41 | denon | drmessano: actually, I like FreeBSD a lot |
07:02.44 | CrashSys | VAX |
07:02.50 | denon | CrashSys: VAX is a platform |
07:02.52 | denon | that runs VMS :) |
07:03.01 | CrashSys | VMS it is then |
07:03.01 | drmessano | denon: but you bash Linux users over it? lol |
07:03.32 | denon | drmessano: nah, I'm not bashing anyone .. I just don't really like people ignorantly whining about microsoft, just 'cause it's cool to do in opensource chans |
07:03.41 | drmessano | Ditto |
07:04.02 | denon | I mean, reality is, Microsoft is currently more successful in numbers, deployment, finances, etc |
07:04.11 | ManxPower | The more you use open source products the more limitations you see. |
07:04.12 | denon | however bad they suck, they seem to know something |
07:04.25 | drmessano | There's lots of good reasons to bash Windows when you know the specifics than just the usual "MS is the devil" banter |
07:04.27 | drmessano | LOL |
07:04.28 | ManxPower | denon: they know MARKETING |
07:04.50 | CrashSys | When you code OpenSource, you code for Communism! |
07:04.53 | denon | ManxPower: in a world where consumers need to understand their options .. then maybe we've gotta learn from that |
07:05.36 | denon | ManxPower: besides, if you want to talk about a company that knows more about marketing than products, I assume we'll talk Apple |
07:05.44 | ManxPower | Customers will never understand their options -- Microsoft is just the best known example of that. |
07:05.46 | drmessano | Microsoft is the Hyndai of programming + the Bentley of Marketing.. They know how to make something with all the features everyone wants, albeit poorly, and sell it for $100,000 |
07:05.46 | denon | and the open source community loves apple, mostly because they're not msft |
07:06.21 | ManxPower | denon: I never had anything good to say about apple until OSX happened. |
07:06.25 | denon | funny thing about apple, the first thing on the product spiffs is the case color (or fruit likeness) |
07:06.34 | drmessano | ZOMG.. APPLE IS THE BESTEREST EVER |
07:06.43 | tzafrir_home | drmessano, actually, they are now being cut from below by "free software" |
07:06.44 | drmessano | heh |
07:06.55 | drmessano | How so? |
07:07.00 | CrashSys | I'd be happy if apple when away... if I get ran off the road by one more idiot with their iPOD I might have to buy a gun... |
07:07.00 | denon | ManxPower: ah, admit it, you've got at least one ipoo |
07:07.23 | ManxPower | denon: no, but I consider apple every time I buy a laptop. |
07:07.38 | CrashSys | s/when/went |
07:08.04 | denon | for it's sleek lines and pasty white appearance? |
07:08.13 | tzafrir_home | There's a limit to how much you can rely on MS-Office to be your cash cow, when someone out there gives a product with "all the features consumers want" for much less of a price |
07:08.49 | denon | anyyyyway, I wasn't tryin to start one of these discussions |
07:08.57 | tzafrir_home | You can take the argument to both sides |
07:09.09 | denon | certainly so |
07:09.15 | drmessano | Thats where the Bentley of marketing comes in |
07:09.32 | denon | drmessano: if msft is the bentley, what's apple? |
07:09.47 | denon | apple is all marketing, and they're the first to say it |
07:09.47 | CrashSys | The Mini |
07:09.47 | drmessano | Tesla Motors |
07:09.48 | ManxPower | PT BARNUM? No! That's MS |
07:09.54 | denon | heheheheh |
07:10.01 | drmessano | Am I wrong? |
07:10.07 | drmessano | heh |
07:10.26 | drmessano | "it looks like a sunflower, and powered by pixie dust.. it's the Mac Mirage" |
07:11.05 | denon | "It looks like it was dropped in a vat of white paint!" |
07:11.16 | drmessano | Think abou this.. |
07:11.17 | CrashSys | LOL... steve job's is all pro-enviroment but his products are the least enviromentally friendly |
07:11.17 | denon | or like it got eaten by a grape |
07:11.44 | denon | or a blueberry, as the case may be |
07:11.45 | drmessano | How many people are going to buy Microsoft OLCS because they've heard about "VoIP" |
07:12.08 | drmessano | It has the V, it has the OIP.. so it has to be "VOIP" |
07:12.15 | Fleg- | How Can I send FAX over with oder SIP? |
07:12.15 | drmessano | I'll take two |
07:12.35 | denon | Fleg-: T.38 |
07:12.46 | denon | or preferrably t.37, but that's not really over sip |
07:12.48 | Fleg- | How Can I send FAX with Asterisk over SIP? |
07:13.03 | CrashSys | I hope microsoft does VoIP better then crisco... cause I just cant wait to interface to a MCS :( |
07:13.03 | denon | Fleg-: read first, then talk |
07:13.05 | Fleg- | denon: Understand. But I can't configure it. |
07:13.06 | obnauticus | the same way you modulate data through the PSTN |
07:13.20 | denon | Fleg-: odds are you won't be happy with the results of what you're tring to do |
07:13.23 | denon | [trying] |
07:13.29 | denon | ~fax |
07:13.30 | jbot | Well, apperantly the fax was concieved of by Napoleon Bonaparte. He commissioned a system of devices that could transmit a traced image electrically over telegraph lines to a remote device that would redraw the image identically. |
07:13.43 | denon | eh ok |
07:13.46 | denon | not what I was hoping for |
07:13.57 | Fleg- | denon: why? Is it so bad? |
07:14.00 | drmessano | Unless something has changed, you need an existing PBX to interface MS OLCS to the PSTN |
07:14.28 | denon | Fleg-: because you're asking a protocol that doesn't mind losing a few packets here and there (SIP) to do a low-latency, precise communication session (FAX) |
07:14.39 | drmessano | I dont know if it even handles ITSP peers.. |
07:15.12 | denon | ~foip |
07:15.13 | jbot | it has been said that foip is Fax over IP. This requires funtionality standardised by T.38, realtime fax over IP, or T.37, store-and-forward via email. See http://soft-switch.org/foip.html for more detailed info about the subject |
07:15.30 | Fleg- | denon: hmm. Does fax protocol have no error correction? |
07:15.36 | drmessano | and I think it's not only using SIP TCP by default, but limited to TCP |
07:15.45 | drmessano | Sounds like MS alright |
07:15.48 | drmessano | lol |
07:16.12 | denon | drmessano: clearly, in order to satisfy the masses, all it needs to do is support technology from the 80s |
07:16.17 | denon | Fleg- is case in point |
07:17.05 | denon | Fleg-: configure all your stuff to use ulaw, QoS the heck out of everything you can, then cross your fingers and pray |
07:17.39 | CrashSys | Sacrificing a chicken on a full moon to the god Cthulu doesn't hurt either |
07:17.43 | CrashSys | but that's just my 2-cents |
07:18.05 | denon | doesn't help, and cost too much in production |
07:18.15 | denon | one chicken per fax, over a couple dozen channels .. really adds up |
07:18.26 | CrashSys | Open up a fried-chicken stand |
07:18.38 | CrashSys | Fax your order in, get half-off a chicken |
07:18.42 | ManxPower | you are welcome to some of the chickens I have around me. |
07:18.55 | ManxPower | ESPECIALLY the roosters. |
07:18.59 | denon | nobody wants fax-sacrificed chickens.. they taste lousy |
07:19.01 | drmessano | lol |
07:19.09 | Fleg- | denon: i can't get it dialing the number. I'm newbie in asterisk. Don't really understand how to write the script. |
07:19.11 | denon | like thermal paper |
07:19.21 | drmessano | YAY THERMAL FAXES |
07:19.21 | CrashSys | I tried to fax a chicken last night but the legs got packet lost |
07:19.27 | CrashSys | and I like the dark meat :( |
07:19.32 | denon | Fleg-: you've not really explained your situation very well .. how is your fax machine attached to asterisk? |
07:19.36 | ManxPower | Fleg-: expect to spend at least a month learning about Asterisk before you can REALLY understand it. |
07:19.45 | drmessano | ZOMG I MISSED UR FAX, THE SUN WUZ SHININ ON MAH DESK |
07:19.58 | drmessano | IT WUZ ALL BLACK |
07:20.13 | Fleg- | ManxPower: I'm afraid I have to. |
07:20.28 | denon | fleg, explain how it's attached . . |
07:21.10 | Fleg- | denon: I want to send a fax to remote fax machine over SIP. The machine has a normal inland FAX number. |
07:21.31 | drmessano | "I just took a job as a manager of a 2000 employee callcenter that uses Asterisk.. So, how does Asterisk work?" |
07:21.45 | denon | Fleg-: you have a fax machine sitting on your desk .. |
07:21.48 | ManxPower | Fleg-: Then you should start by reading The Book, then browsing the voip-info.org Wiki (be careful, it has much outdated info), then the mailing list archives. |
07:21.50 | denon | what is it's phone line plugged into? |
07:21.56 | CrashSys | It's shaped like a flower and operates on pixie dust... it's the Asterisk Mirage! |
07:22.08 | drmessano | lol |
07:22.30 | ManxPower | Fleg-: What you want to do will take at least $1,000 worth of hardware |
07:22.32 | drmessano | "It's a Panasonic Fax connected to a Grandstream VoIP modem" |
07:22.34 | Fleg- | ManxPower: I have the O'rely book. It must be good i think. |
07:22.38 | ManxPower | not including the fax machines. |

07:23.00 | drmessano | "Voip modem" <-- my fav |
07:23.07 | denon | ManxPower: $10 says it's plugged into an X100P |
07:23.10 | Fleg- | denon: no. only SIP. have no hardware at all. |
07:23.18 | denon | (and yes, I know it's not an FXS device) |
07:23.19 | CrashSys | ....... |
07:23.30 | drmessano | LOL |
07:23.32 | denon | Fleg-: here's the thing, you can't shove paper into your computer |
07:23.34 | drmessano | nice, denon.. |
07:23.36 | drmessano | heh |
07:23.47 | denon | there needs to be a fax machine, somehow attached to the intarwebber |
07:23.51 | drmessano | Is that like plugging a T1 card into a Linksys switch? |
07:24.02 | drmessano | Wondering where you set the IP |
07:24.03 | Fleg- | denon: I don't need to if I have an tif image. |
07:24.11 | ManxPower | Fleg-: You will need to get two TDM400P cards with the correct modules. |
07:24.16 | denon | ok, so now you're talking about making asterisk a fax client .. |
07:24.20 | denon | which is totally different |
07:24.38 | denon | read up on spandsp, hylafax and iaxmodem .. |
07:24.40 | ManxPower | denon: Don't you hate it when they change their goal in the middle? |
07:24.43 | denon | then, quite honestly, don't do any of it |
07:24.46 | Fleg- | denon: yes. What do you ment? |
07:24.51 | denon | because it will not be stable in production |
07:24.57 | drmessano | Im still lost.. when did Fax start working over SIP? I missed the memo |
07:25.02 | denon | we have all beat our heads against the wall after spending months trying to get this to work |
07:25.31 | CrashSys | Hylafax + IAXModem works when connected to PSTN :) |
07:25.35 | CrashSys | or T.37... |
07:25.55 | CrashSys | not really VoIP tho |
07:26.01 | ManxPower | drmessano: Oh, you can do it. But don't expect it to be reliable. We told him that and he can't come crying to us when it doesn't work. Changes are he doesn't realize the complexity, cost, or time involved and will five up in a few days anyway. |
07:26.02 | drmessano | CrashSys, so a PSTN <> SIP CONVARTAR should work, eh? lol |
07:26.17 | CrashSys | everything works in theory |
07:26.22 | drmessano | My experience was a half page worth |
07:26.29 | Fleg- | denon: hmm. I installed it all and I need to configure it (write a correct script) The fax is answearing but I can't get asterisk dial a number. |
07:26.30 | ManxPower | Talk about typoes.... |
07:26.31 | drmessano | It sent half the page and hung up |
07:26.40 | drmessano | Then it sent half the page again and hung up |
07:26.45 | drmessano | and then I stopped |
07:27.06 | CrashSys | Has Digium got the faxing on their T1 cards working? |
07:27.23 | CrashSys | I.E. T1 native bridging from span to span? |
07:27.28 | ManxPower | CrashSys: It's not really a BUG, it's a DESIGN issue. |
07:27.36 | denon | Fleg-: I'm not sure I really follow, but there are several good articles that I think you'll find helpful |
07:27.52 | drmessano | Imma send Fax over TDMoE |
07:28.13 | denon | Fleg-: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGIC_enUS218US219&q=hylafax+asterisk+send+tif |
07:28.13 | CrashSys | Interesting idea... wonder how stable the jitter is |
07:28.54 | drmessano | I'm sure it works like a windsock on a skyscraper in Chicago.. |
07:29.21 | CrashSys | so reliably and robustly? |
07:29.35 | drmessano | "It blows" |
07:29.54 | denon | heh, I just bought a new vaccuum for the house a while ago |
07:30.21 | Fleg- | denon: I have this one: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/app_rxfax+and+app_txfax |
07:30.22 | denon | and every single review, "Man, this thing really sucks!" |
07:30.22 | denon | everyone thinks they're so clever |
07:30.22 | drmessano | denon, wrong direction, same idea |
07:30.22 | denon | nod |
07:30.25 | drmessano | lol |
07:30.26 | Fleg- | denon: why shouldn't I use it? |
07:31.08 | drmessano | Some people just have to learn from experience, I guess |
07:31.09 | denon | Fleg-: it's highly unstable |
07:31.20 | Fleg- | denon: ok. |
07:31.23 | denon | Fleg-: you will get it set up, it'll work .. 1 page will work .. 2 pages will work .. |
07:31.26 | drmessano | "But it's posted on a wiki!!!!ones!!!! |
07:31.28 | denon | you'll say "cool!" |
07:31.36 | denon | and you'll foolishly put it into production |
07:31.57 | denon | then all the sudden, people are complaining . . missing pages .. re-sending faxes .. slow connections .. |
07:32.04 | denon | and you'll waste your weekend chasing your tail |
07:32.33 | ManxPower | We speak from experience. |
07:32.46 | denon | your wife will ask what you're doing, and you'll get disgruntled because you could be out to a movie, but instead you're huddled over your SSH window, trying to fix a protocol that sucked even in 1983 |
07:32.51 | CrashSys | denon: But then he could blog about it like nerdvittles! |
07:33.01 | drmessano | Fax Over IP should stop at "I got to eFax's website to manage my account" |
07:33.29 | ManxPower | drmessano: But it's NOT FaxOverIP. It's FaxOverVoiceOverIP |
07:33.30 | denon | t.37 rocks, really |
07:33.39 | ManxPower | and usually +OverInternet |
07:33.46 | CrashSys | FoVoIP |
07:33.57 | denon | as5400s can push thousands of faxes, millions of pages, no problems |
07:33.57 | drmessano | yeah yeah |
07:34.19 | drmessano | ManxPower: Do you always need to correct someone when they agree with you :) |
07:34.40 | denon | some of us just need to feel like it was our idea |
07:34.45 | drmessano | heh |
07:35.01 | ManxPower | drmessano: Your term is misleading in my opinion. 8-) |
07:35.11 | drmessano | It is called FoIP |
07:35.21 | drmessano | Even if the V is left out |
07:35.27 | drmessano | and it ruined my joke anyway |
07:35.30 | drmessano | So.. there |
07:35.50 | denon | so yeah, guys, im trying to connect into this BBS in switzerland over my vonage account ... |
07:36.00 | denon | why can't I get a 56k connection? it's digital!! |
07:36.15 | CrashSys | Is it a Renegade BBS? |
07:36.16 | drmessano | LOL |
07:36.20 | denon | no, MajorBBS |
07:36.23 | CrashSys | 10-05? |
07:36.23 | denon | is that the problem? |
07:36.29 | CrashSys | Ohh, well there's yer problem! |
07:36.40 | drmessano | I couldnt get two USR modems to talk at 9600 between ATAs |
07:36.42 | denon | darn, guess I'll just move it to Wildcat |
07:36.44 | CrashSys | If you were running Oblivion/2 or better it'd be bullets! |
07:37.00 | drmessano | Maybe it was the ATAs.. ive heard 14,400 works |
07:37.03 | CrashSys | Yuck... wildcat... |
07:37.05 | drmessano | lol |
07:37.32 | drmessano | I should have taken a pic of my test setup.. it was fun trying to get two modems to talk |
07:38.00 | denon | actually, earlier on, I did used to do modem connections over cisco atas |
07:39.01 | drmessano | Well, I tried for a few hours |
07:39.02 | CrashSys | Cisco is the answer! |
07:39.15 | CrashSys | When in doubt, pay 3x what it's worth! |
07:39.24 | CrashSys | :) |
07:39.40 | drmessano | and then the sound of modems redialing and not connecting gave me too many flashbacks of my days of dialup internet and failed connects.. I wet myself and started crying.. so it was all voer |
07:39.42 | drmessano | over* |
07:41.25 | drmessano | I remember waiting for all the Free ISP's I used to use to connect.. connection dropped, and it would take 20 mins to get back on sometimes, if at all |

08:16.00 | drmessano | pastebin* |
08:16.29 | BeeBuu | trixbox is base on asterisk,right? |

08:16.49 | CrashSys | Yes... and Budweiser is based on beer |
08:16.59 | CrashSys | but I wouldn't call Trixbox Asterisk necessarily... |
08:17.06 | drmessano | CrashSys.. |
08:17.26 | drmessano | I can tell you're smarter than "Yes... and Budweiser is based on beer" |

08:19.31 | drmessano | LOL |
08:22.34 | BeeBuu | any way,anyone tell me what's that mean? |
08:22.38 | drmessano | BeeBuu: trixbox changes all the rules, much like how using a command prompt in windows isn't "DOS" |

08:44.01 | nvrpunk | as I didn't compile from source, i am guessing all these example configs were installed from the binary package |

09:10.23 | nvrpunk | someone said asterisk doesnt support 30ms samples |
09:10.27 | nvrpunk | is this true? |
09:11.04 | nvrpunk | thats a waste of 1/3 of the packets :/ |
09:13.47 | *** part/#asterisk AJayMN (n=mypocket@71-82-218-158.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com) |
09:15.30 | JT | nvrpunk: i think you're being a bit dramatic about the waste |
09:15.34 | JT | but yes asterisk is 20ms |
09:19.59 | nvrpunk | how is the dramatic? |
09:20.02 | nvrpunk | that* |
09:20.06 | nvrpunk | it's really not |
09:20.09 | nvrpunk | actually :P |
09:21.22 | JT | i don't see how it "wastes" 1/3 the packets |
09:21.50 | JT | and the advantage is slightly lower latency, but the 20ms thing is due to it being hard coded i guess |
09:22.29 | nvrpunk | 30ms uses the full amount per packet available |
09:22.38 | nvrpunk | 20ms uses 2/3 |
09:22.44 | JT | amount of what? |
09:22.46 | nvrpunk | hence 1/3 wasted packets |
09:22.48 | nvrpunk | data |
09:22.52 | nvrpunk | in the packet |
09:22.54 | JT | explain |
09:22.57 | nvrpunk | .. |
09:23.07 | nvrpunk | we run a satellite isp |
09:23.09 | JT | IP is not ATM |
09:23.10 | nvrpunk | just trust me |
09:23.16 | nvrpunk | 20ms is a huge waste |
09:23.17 | JT | no, i'd rather an explanation |
09:23.32 | nvrpunk | then google |
09:23.35 | nvrpunk | and research |
09:23.43 | nvrpunk | rather than assume its not a huge waste |
09:23.55 | JT | i know there's some waste |
09:24.01 | nvrpunk | when you pay 5k per Mbps youll think differently |
09:24.08 | JT | i just don't think it's as dramatic as you're speaking of |
09:24.17 | JT | unless you're talking about a very specific scenario |
09:24.43 | nvrpunk | ok, pps is what voip relies on heavily yes? |
09:24.49 | nvrpunk | not so much bandwidth |
09:24.55 | JT | sure |
09:24.59 | nvrpunk | if you are going over a sat link |
09:25.06 | nvrpunk | pps is not what you have so much of |
09:25.10 | nvrpunk | so its a huge loss |
09:25.14 | nvrpunk | in our business |
09:25.22 | nvrpunk | we want to use everything we can |
09:25.25 | nvrpunk | to not waste packets |
09:25.30 | JT | so why not 40ms then? |
09:25.32 | JT | or more |
09:25.44 | nvrpunk | because that doesnt work with out MTU |
09:25.46 | nvrpunk | :p |
09:25.51 | nvrpunk | its the math we have in place |
09:25.55 | nvrpunk | that makes it wasteful |
09:26.02 | JT | so it's about YOUR mtu |
09:26.08 | nvrpunk | :D |
09:26.11 | nvrpunk | you got it! |
09:26.24 | JT | the one that you didn't want to specify |
09:26.25 | drmessano | Well shit |
09:26.31 | drmessano | They MUST patch this IMMEDIATELY |
09:26.37 | nvrpunk | haha |
09:26.40 | nvrpunk | im not saying that |

09:26.58 | nvrpunk | and put VOIP on a dif vlan |
09:27.03 | nvrpunk | like i already suggested |
09:27.04 | nvrpunk | :P |
09:27.05 | JT | i mean, you don't have to use asterisk :) |

09:27.24 | nvrpunk | im not the network engineer though |
09:27.25 | nvrpunk | :P |
09:27.39 | nvrpunk | im the guy who does the um stuff he doesnt want to do |
09:27.40 | nvrpunk | haha |
09:27.44 | nvrpunk | like this |
09:28.19 | JT | what is your mtu? |
09:28.26 | nvrpunk | 1500 |
09:28.29 | drmessano | Sure, but you're the one complaining how wasteful asterisk is when YOUR system is the issue.. Isn't that a bit douche? |

13:45.25 | mvanbaak | define 'f##ks up the root account' |
13:46.05 | musalk | yesterday we install mandriva setup every thing and today root has expired |
13:47.05 | musalk | we had the same problem on ubuntu but it took a week |
13:47.18 | musalk | before the problem apeard |
13:48.01 | mvanbaak | the root account expired ? |
13:48.42 | musalk | rather access denied |
13:49.56 | tzafrir | musalk, how have you installed Asterisk? from package? from source? |
13:50.07 | musalk | package |
13:50.25 | tzafrir | A package has to have a very broken preinst / postinst to cause that |
13:50.32 | tzafrir | you can inspect those scripts |
13:50.42 | tzafrir | rpm -qp --scripts |
13:50.57 | mvanbaak | hhmm |
13:51.02 | mvanbaak | the ubuntu packages are fine |
13:51.15 | tzafrir | Or in debs: dpkg -I package.deb preinst # or postinst |
13:51.19 | musalk | the installation on ubuntu ran for 5 days then access denied for root |
13:51.29 | tzafrir | And I don't suppose a package would be that broken |
13:51.47 | mvanbaak | musalk: you mean you could no longer ssh in as root ? |
13:52.04 | mvanbaak | musalk: or root could not login on the local console ? |
13:52.04 | musalk | not on too totaly different installs the same facktor is the asterisk config files |
13:52.23 | musalk | nither on shh or local |
13:52.34 | mvanbaak | and after a reboot ? |
13:52.41 | musalk | had too reset password manuly |
13:52.44 | tzafrir | can you connect as a user, and su to root? |
13:52.54 | musalk | yes as user |
13:53.02 | musalk | no to su |
13:53.06 | mvanbaak | ubuntu does not allow root logins |
13:53.17 | mvanbaak | you have to login as normal user and su to root |
13:53.39 | musalk | it dose when shh is set to root allow |
13:54.00 | musalk | anyway the systems works fine for a few days then access denied |
13:54.00 | mvanbaak | no, because by default root has no password in ubuntu |

14:32.33 | jhiver | i'm trying to work out a way to do call back, i.e. you ring a number and it calls you back. I'm trying to use the 'h' extension to call a DeadAGI script to create the call file, however 'h' is not triggered if the channel was not answered first! |
14:32.37 | jhiver | any ideas? |
14:32.56 | jblack | jhiver: Yeah. Look at the outgoing spool directory for calls. |
14:33.15 | jhiver | the plan is to do 1) dial 2) let ring 3) hangup 4) it calls you back |
14:33.17 | jblack | Plop in a text file with the right syntax and the right modification date, and it makes that call. |
14:33.26 | jhiver | that's not the problem |
14:33.41 | jhiver | the problem is that i need the caller id to be passed to a script after the user hangs the phone |
14:33.44 | jblack | That's how most people setup callback services. |
14:33.58 | jhiver | and the 'h' extension is never triggered since we never answered the channel to start with |
14:34.14 | *** join/#asterisk mikkel (n=mikkel@84.238.113.66) |

14:36.08 | jhiver | there |
14:36.31 | jblack | I don't see what the problem is. Someone dials in, You can do whatever you want with it while it's ringing. Just dont' answer. |
14:36.47 | jblack | Call an agi that records their callerid, etc. |
14:37.14 | jhiver | the problem is that you want to create the call file ONLY when the user has hung up and not before then |
14:37.28 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, Channel variables are gone once you hit "h" IIRC |
14:37.45 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, And thats not how to make a call-back script |
14:37.48 | jhiver | and on top of that it never does anyway :) |
14:37.53 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, use call-files or AMI originate |
14:38.04 | jhiver | yes i want to use call files |
14:38.19 | jhiver | i just want to create them AFTER the user hangs up |
14:38.45 | jhiver | otherwise you have to make it ring somehow in the future (a few seconds) but it's kind of horrible /methinks |
14:38.52 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, Save the wait, make the call file immediately, and hang up on THEM <--- |
14:39.11 | Greek-Boy | [TK]D-Fender do you happen to know about extension mobility? |
14:39.23 | jhiver | nah, that's not good |
14:39.27 | [TK]D-Fender | Greek-Boy, its called cut&paste where I come from ;) |
14:39.31 | jhiver | i want to be sure that the user has hung their phone |
14:39.35 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, yes it is. Highly effective |
14:39.51 | jhiver | if you hang up on them there is no guarantee that they will actually put the phone on hook |
14:39.53 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, NOTHING forces the guy to hang up. Play a message saying "hang up NOW". |
14:40.04 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, and put a bit of a delay on the call-back |
14:40.10 | jhiver | that's horrible |
14:40.32 | [TK]D-Fender | jhiver, there is NEVER a garuantee they will hang up their phoone so don't waste effort thinking your approach will :) |
14:40.39 | jhiver | yes there is |

14:40.44 | jhiver | almost :) |

14:58.03 | jhiver | hey can somebody actually ring this number? I'd like to see what the caller id will look like from abroad |
14:58.11 | jhiver | the number is +262 262 358 298 |
14:58.18 | mathewjenkinson | ill ring it if u can help me with my trunk issue? |
14:58.19 | *** join/#asterisk boiled_fetuccini (n=kvirc@modemcable203.73-80-70.mc.videotron.ca) |
14:58.52 | jhiver | mathewjenkinson i don't know if i have the knowledge to help :) |
14:58.56 | jhiver | shoot anyway |
14:59.15 | jhiver | if it's TDM card related i'm useless pretty much |
14:59.47 | mathewjenkinson | well i have the account details, and calling out works but i cant seem to get the inbound route to register, |
15:00.10 | mathewjenkinson | calling now |
15:00.24 | *** join/#asterisk anonymouz666 (n=anonymou@200.218.193.6) |
15:00.38 | mathewjenkinson | line just registers as blank |
15:00.43 | jhiver | huh? I saw called ID '1234' |
15:01.01 | jhiver | so |
15:01.05 | jhiver | you are using a SIP provider |
15:01.07 | boiled_fetuccini | hate jumping in and asking away... but I guess it cannot be helped. anyone has any experience with the asterisk appliance? |
15:01.14 | jhiver | and you cannot get inbound to work |
15:01.18 | jhiver | is that it? |
15:01.27 | mathewjenkinson | ya, cant get inbound to work |
15:01.38 | mathewjenkinson | so im assuming that ive missed a bit somewhere |
15:01.58 | jhiver | well... if you have a static IP you can ask your SIP provider to just send to this IP |
15:02.03 | jhiver | it's by far the easiest |
15:02.24 | jhiver | then you don't need to worry about registrations |
15:02.32 | mathewjenkinson | i didnt know that |
15:02.36 | mathewjenkinson | i have a static, |
15:02.47 | jhiver | ok we're gonna do a test |
15:03.39 | mathewjenkinson | go for it |
15:12.30 | jhiver | ok well it looks like your caller id was '1234' that doesnt' help |
15:12.35 | jhiver | can somebody else test plz? |
15:13.01 | jhiver | call +262 262 358 298 <--- only rings, so there is no charge |
15:15.03 | mvanbaak | ringing |
15:15.21 | mvanbaak | and ended call |
15:16.59 | jhiver | ok, this time i had '1325' |
15:17.08 | mvanbaak | meh |
15:17.09 | jhiver | my guess is that i need to go shout on france telecom :) |
15:17.12 | mvanbaak | that's not my number |
15:17.24 | jhiver | it works for local + national |
15:17.36 | jhiver | but i have strange stuff for overseas |
15:17.43 | mvanbaak | this is TDM ? |

15:32.39 | Greek-Boy | which variable is closest to channel type? |
15:34.38 | Greek-Boy | i want to use a gotoif and meet the condition that the channel type is zap, any zap channel... |
15:36.30 | tzafrir | Greek-Boy, use CHANNEL, and use the function CUT |
15:37.31 | Greek-Boy | alright. thanks. |
15:37.43 | tzafrir | or even simpler: ${CHANNEL:0:3} or something similar |
15:38.39 | [TK]D-Fender | geist-, Who is your provider? |
15:39.00 | Greek-Boy | yes but in my case the same extension(or caller ID) can come in as SIP or ZAP. |
15:39.25 | Greek-Boy | tzafrir: so should I use ${CHANNEL:0:3} and function CUT? |
15:40.13 | geist- | geotel |
15:40.26 | geist- | im working for them, why? |
15:40.39 | tzafrir | Just ${CHANNEL:0:3} . Not sure 0 and 3 are the right numbers |
15:40.45 | mvanbaak | Greek-Boy: ${CHANNEL:0:3} will return ZAP or SIP |
15:41.24 | Greek-Boy | yes it will return ZAP or SIP but I need to jump to a different priority if its ZAP and a different one if its SIP. |
15:42.30 | mvanbaak | GotoIf($["${CHANNEL:0:3}" == "Zap"]?zap:sip) |
15:42.31 | tzafrir | GotoIf? |
15:42.34 | mvanbaak | something like that |
15:43.49 | Corydon76-dig | Or GotoIf($[${CUT(CHANNEL,/,1)} = Zap]?zap:sip) |
15:43.51 | Greek-Boy | how about |
15:43.52 | Greek-Boy | GotoIf($[$["${CHANNEL:0:3}" = "SIP"] | $["${CHANNEL:0:3}" = "ZAP"] |
15:44.09 | Greek-Boy | oops |
15:44.12 | Greek-Boy | nah, that wont work |
15:44.54 | geist- | do i also need to set the outgoing callerid with the sip.conf somewhere? |
15:44.57 | mvanbaak | Corydon76-dig: did you see my remarks about the hint stuff you suggested me ? |
15:45.05 | tzafrir | It's "Zap", not "ZAP" . OR at least should be |
15:46.09 | Corydon76-dig | mvanbaak: Yep, no idea, sorry |
15:46.13 | mvanbaak | ok |
15:46.18 | mvanbaak | I think I'll just go for: |
15:46.40 | mvanbaak | exten => _3XX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}) |
15:46.56 | mvanbaak | exten => _3XX,2,Macro(dundilookup) |
15:47.34 | Corydon76-dig | mvanbaak: You could give it a really short timeout |
15:48.07 | Greek-Boy | actually, it looks like my line will work because it needs either one. |
15:48.20 | mvanbaak | well, Dial to a device that is not registered locally is returning almost imediatelly |
15:48.27 | mvanbaak | so it will work |
15:48.40 | Greek-Boy | what would I change in that line to make the condition require both variables? |
15:48.42 | mvanbaak | and my qualify is set to 50 |
15:48.59 | JT | Greek-Boy: sorry for the lag... but wanting to use kannel :) |
15:49.14 | mvanbaak | that's fast enough for me. It takes people around 5 minutes to walk from DECT location 1 to DECT location 2 |
15:50.19 | mvanbaak | everything is better that what's there now |
15:50.46 | Greek-Boy | np JT. great. are you going to use it as a smsc? |
15:50.50 | mvanbaak | Dial(SIP/${EXTEN}&IAX2/location2/${EXTEN}&IAX2/location3/${EXTEN}) |
15:51.11 | JT | Greek-Boy: yeah, as soon as i work out the best way to get wholesale sms delivered to me :) |

15:53.33 | anonymouz666 | no |
15:53.48 | anonymouz666 | version 1.2 I need to quote everything |
15:54.01 | Corydon76-dig | anonymouz666: you've never needed to use quotes unless there was a possibility that something would be BLANK |
15:54.03 | mvanbaak | I use the "" to make sure it's a string. that way you can check with empty results |
15:54.19 | Corydon76-dig | and you did it only to prevent a blank |
15:54.24 | mvanbaak | indeed |
15:54.34 | Corydon76-dig | You can also prefix with a 0 and it will do the same thing |
15:54.41 | mvanbaak | uhhuh |

17:20.41 | Greek-Boy | what is the command for storing user feedback digits? |
17:25.24 | jhiver | Background or something? |
17:27.24 | Greek-Boy | background plays sound |
17:27.40 | Greek-Boy | while waiting for an extension |
17:28.01 | Greek-Boy | i want to capture users input, key stroke and store them into a variable |
17:30.06 | anonymouz666 | read() |
17:31.18 | drmessano | G726 in asterisk is G726-32? |
17:32.19 | RoyK | drmessano: unless someone has done something recently, yes |
17:33.04 | drmessano | I'm reading g726 in 1.2 and 1.4 is G726-32.. and that the 1.2 implementation was "flawed", and exists in 1.4 as g726aal2 |
17:33.46 | drmessano | I read something further into the "flawed" bit, as meaning a "slightly different implementation" |
17:33.53 | drmessano | But that was a while back. |
17:34.42 | jhiver | hi, how can i check wether or not the channel is hangup from within a AGI script? |
17:34.56 | jhiver | well, a DeadAGI script to be more accurate |
17:35.37 | RoyK | afaik DeadAGI isn't called until the channel is already hung up |
17:36.55 | jhiver | well, that's not how astcc.agi operates :) |
17:37.39 | Corydon76-dig | Then it's operating improperly |
17:37.47 | Greek-Boy | anonymouz666: read() reads a variable. I want to capture the dtmf tones and put them into a variable. |
17:37.54 | jhiver | i'm trying to finish off a custom calling card solution but i have just this one issue, i mean it all works ok but there are a couple of issues |
17:38.17 | jhiver | one of them is that if I use AGI() then i don't see a way of getting proper CDR data for the call... any ideas? |
17:38.18 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: the right thing to do is run an AGI, then intercept the HUP signal |
17:38.35 | jhiver | Corydon76-dig, will this work with fastagi? |
17:38.40 | Corydon76-dig | Nope |
17:38.41 | anonymouz666 | Greek-Boy: you want Read(), again |
17:38.50 | jhiver | then i have to find a way around :) |
17:39.00 | Corydon76-dig | fastagi doesn't have a method for discovering a hangup |
17:39.15 | Corydon76-dig | other than attempt to do something like playback and have it fail |
17:39.26 | jhiver | nyeah that's ugly |
17:39.38 | Corydon76-dig | Those are your options |
17:39.41 | jhiver | so, how can i get proper CDR info? |
17:40.02 | Corydon76-dig | Uh, what info precisely |
17:40.09 | jhiver | well |
17:40.17 | jhiver | i need to bill the card users right? |
17:40.25 | Greek-Boy | my apologies anonymouz666 |
17:41.01 | jhiver | but asterisk does not write the information which interests me in the CDRs... it writes the caller id (which is the phone booth the user is calling from) when i'm interested in the card serial / pin code |
17:41.22 | jhiver | then the callee is the card's access number which is of no interest (i need the number which the user dialed) |
17:41.27 | drmessano | does g726nonstandard=yes exist? or is it allow=g726 vs allow=g726aal2 ? |
17:41.42 | jhiver | and finally the time answered takes into account all the voice prompts which is not right either |
17:41.49 | jhiver | how would you go about it? |
17:42.00 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: sounds like you'd be interested in cdr_adaptive_odbc |
17:42.13 | jhiver | because with AGI(), as soon as the channel is hungup that's it, you're done |
17:42.22 | Corydon76-dig | so you can create arbitrary CDR columns in your database |
17:42.49 | jhiver | i'd be quite happy if all this info was stuff in one field i can parse as soon as the call is over |
17:42.52 | Corydon76-dig | So before the call starts, you do Set(CDR(cardno)=...) |
17:43.00 | jhiver | yes but |
17:43.04 | anonymouz666 | Corydon76-dig: this is amazing. using cdr_mysql as I'am using today requires that you modify the source code if you wanna store something different |
17:43.05 | jhiver | how about the Answered time? |
17:43.19 | Corydon76-dig | That's part of the standard CDR info |
17:43.32 | Corydon76-dig | anonymouz666: not in addons-trunk |
17:43.44 | jhiver | no because it takes into account all the voice prompts like 'please enter your pin' and such |
17:43.47 | jhiver | i don't want to bill that! |
17:44.00 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: ResetCDR() |
17:44.26 | Corydon76-dig | or ForkCDR(), your choice |
17:44.38 | anonymouz666 | I am still using pretty old stuff. I wanna rewrite all my dialplan switching from app_mysql to func_odbc and use cdr_adaptive |
17:45.33 | jhiver | and is there a way i can change the EXISTING CDR fields? |
17:45.50 | jhiver | because replacing the caller id with the pin code would be fine |
17:45.52 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: why change the existing fields, when you can add your own custom ones? |
17:46.02 | jhiver | because they are of no use to me? |
17:46.09 | jhiver | why have all the extra info? |
17:46.13 | jhiver | the access number won't change |
17:46.14 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: so leave them out of the database table |
17:46.35 | Corydon76-dig | You really should look at adaptive |
17:47.04 | jhiver | okay |
17:47.14 | Corydon76-dig | It's massively useful and does a lot of what people would like CDRs to do |
17:47.35 | Corydon76-dig | You can add columns, delete columns, whatever you want |
17:47.57 | Corydon76-dig | You can remap standard field names to alternative column names |
17:48.14 | Corydon76-dig | and you can log to multiple databases |
17:48.28 | jhiver | the only stuff i'm not happy about is relying on a database, i've figured out the less i use them the less stuff tends to crash :) |
17:48.36 | Corydon76-dig | You can even filter to which database which records go based upon a certain CDR variable |
17:48.45 | jhiver | like 'ooh mysql server has gone away' aaaarrrgh! |
17:49.01 | Corydon76-dig | The ODBC stuff is very fault tolerant now |
17:49.59 | Corydon76-dig | and there are branches to make it even more tolerant |
17:50.29 | Corydon76-dig | but yes, I agree, when the database goes down, there are problems. You just have to make sure the database doesn't go down, right? |
17:50.37 | jhiver | huh :) |
17:50.54 | Corydon76-dig | and maybe you should be using Postgres, not MySQL |
17:50.56 | jhiver | i think with reiserfs, you can do quite a lot without them basically |
17:51.05 | jhiver | it's not that much more code |
17:51.18 | jhiver | and it doesn't crash nearly as much |
17:51.28 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: Uh, ReiserFS? |
17:51.39 | Corydon76-dig | The FS without a future? |
17:51.44 | jhiver | well |
17:52.02 | jhiver | you can have lots of files in a directory and it's not a problem |
17:52.15 | jhiver | which is when you want to do stuff WITHOUT database, is good :) |
17:52.25 | jhiver | but we're drifting from the point :) |
17:52.34 | jhiver | so |
17:52.41 | Corydon76-dig | Um, why would you need lots of files in a directory for CDRs? |
17:52.42 | jhiver | in order to have useful CDRs for billing |
17:52.50 | jhiver | I MUST have a database |
17:52.59 | jhiver | no, lots of files for 1 calling card = 1 file |
17:52.59 | Corydon76-dig | Right |
17:53.10 | jhiver | well, that blows :) |
17:53.18 | kyron | Q: Anyone here aver had experience with `Belkin F1PG111EN VoIP ATA 1FXS+1 FXO` with *? Positive/negative? This would be for home use |
17:53.36 | Corydon76-dig | Uh, I wouldn't do that even if I had to use a filesystem. I'd use a Berkeley DB |
17:53.49 | jhiver | no no no |
17:54.01 | jhiver | how do you edit a berkeley db database? |
17:54.06 | jhiver | ANSWER: you don't |
17:54.10 | Corydon76-dig | With a database package |
17:54.15 | jhiver | files you can edit, grep, sort, script |
17:54.18 | jhiver | i like 'em |
17:54.23 | Corydon76-dig | or SQLite |
17:54.24 | jhiver | for example, maildir |
17:54.29 | jhiver | is a brilliant example |
17:54.42 | jhiver | of what you can do with a properly thought out file system |
17:54.44 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: you're a one-man shop, aren't you? |

17:55.43 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: I am trying to achieve extension mobility. |
17:55.49 | jhiver | you need to think about it from the start |

17:56.29 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: The zap channels are beceause we have a PRI to a mobile company and route all calls through our PBX. |
17:57.06 | Corydon76-dig | jhiver: just use a database |
17:58.06 | Corydon76-dig | Greek-Boy: I have no idea what you're trying to accomplish |
17:58.18 | jhiver | nah, i like databases for querying and reporting (and use them daily for that purpose) |
17:58.26 | jhiver | but for "almost" realtime stuff |
17:58.30 | jhiver | i think they suck |
17:59.03 | Corydon76-dig | Well, you're entitled to your opinion |
17:59.05 | jhiver | on our switch i used to use a database and ran into lots of issues with them crashing with the sheer amounts of CDRs being pushed |
17:59.23 | jhiver | processing the CDRs daily for insertion is fine |
17:59.39 | Corydon76-dig | What database? |
17:59.49 | jhiver | but doing constant realtime writes + large queries = nightmare |
18:00.41 | jhiver | tried MySQL + MyISAM and then the same with InnoDB (which helped for a while but not much)... I also gave a try with PostGres but the load on the box went bananas |
18:01.02 | Corydon76-dig | Then use a different machine for the database |
18:01.18 | jhiver | well, i can do as well with ONE machine, why the extra expense? :) |

18:01.58 | jhiver | i do for my AGI issues, the problem is databases apparently :) |
18:02.12 | Corydon76-dig | You can take what we suggest or not, but don't say that it's adequate already, because if you're asking, it most certainly is not |
18:02.15 | jhiver | i'm just reluctant on using them for realtime operation because of my past experiences |
18:02.29 | jhiver | i understand your point |
18:02.52 | jhiver | i'm just trying to see if there's other options which would be more suitable is all |
18:03.02 | jhiver | no offense, i appreciate your advice |
18:04.07 | Corydon76-dig | Well, you could use res_config_curl to do realtime queries on a slave database... let another machine manage the query load among several slaves or even delay writes |

18:06.05 | Corydon76-dig | anonymouz666: you can't |
18:06.10 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: when a user dials 2222 on a IAX2 interface from another asterisk box with specific caller id, asterisk will automatically set a global variable that we always use to dial the users extension. We already know what to set the variable to because we know how to reach the user through the same IAX2 route. |
18:06.51 | anonymouz666 | JerJer: hard? |
18:07.14 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: when a user dials 2222 from a sip interface on the same asterisk box, we ask him for an extension number and password and we set the global variable to the username of the phone he is phoning from. |
18:07.21 | JerJer | hard enough to put me over the time I had allocated |
18:07.35 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: so now when we dial the user it goes to that phone. we have given the user the ability to roam around. |
18:08.12 | Greek-Boy | Corydon76-dig: i made a mistake on that dialplan i pasted. the two zap entries (first two lines) should be IAX2 |
18:09.28 | Corydon76-dig | anonymouz666: at some point, Digium may be offering a developer training class |
18:10.19 | anonymouz666 | this is nice, and then I will be ready to write chan_sip from scratch ;-) |

18:10.53 | Corydon76-dig | We aren't getting into writing core code, only peripheral code |

18:19.44 | Greek-Boy | mvanbaak can u please check my pastebin post and see if it makes any sense? |
18:22.43 | anonymouz666 | you don't need to use playback before read |
18:22.59 | anonymouz666 | you can use your prompt inside read() |
18:23.09 | anonymouz666 | it's the second arg, I think |
18:23.09 | mvanbaak | anonymouz666: he's using 2 files |
18:23.19 | mvanbaak | so playback is the way I would do it as well |

20:22.02 | completely_phukt | I am trying to limit number of ports used by asterisk. I remember reading about it, but I can't find where. Please help :) |

20:22.44 | completely_phukt | drmessano: thanks |
20:26.08 | completely_phukt | OK, another question: I have a small call center with up 20 people calling out (using predictive auto-dialer). If I limit RTP port to 10000 - 10100, am I gonna choke them? Or do these ports just get easily reused? |
20:29.16 | completely_phukt | did I exceed my limit of questions? ;) |
20:29.45 | drmessano | Nope |
20:29.51 | drmessano | Theoretically, you should be fine |
20:30.11 | drmessano | 20 x 2 = 40 |
20:30.22 | drmessano | Of course, you said OUT, right? |
20:30.33 | completely_phukt | yea |
20:30.41 | drmessano | Any outside users connecting? |
20:30.55 | completely_phukt | there are some incoming calls, but not more than 3 at at time |
20:31.01 | completely_phukt | no outside users |
20:31.16 | drmessano | You shouldnt need any ports open unless you have devices on the outside |
20:31.54 | drmessano | So all this is moot, really |

22:12.24 | lmadsen | e) |
22:12.46 | lmadsen | pabloff: you have to program the dialplan to do it -- but luckily there is documentation to show you how to do that |
22:12.54 | lmadsen | jbot: tell pabloff about thebook |
22:13.27 | tzanger | documentation? surely you jest |

22:14.41 | tzanger | include? what do you mean |
22:14.48 | lmadsen | ok.. let me write up an example |

22:16.24 | lmadsen | check that out |

22:19.17 | tzanger | lmadsen: that's fucked up |
22:19.24 | tzanger | lmadsen: actually I have run across something like that before |
22:19.27 | lmadsen | tzanger: indeed |
22:19.37 | lmadsen | i don't know whether that is a bug or not... |
22:19.44 | lmadsen | because it IS following the right rules... but .... |
22:20.02 | lmadsen | because execution of 8500 is actually happening in [phones], not in [checkVoicemail] |
22:20.14 | tzanger | if you have [foo] wiht exten 123 and 456, and you have [bar] with 456 and 789, and [baz] which includes foo then bar and you call 456 from it, you get the [bar] exten and not hte [foo] one IIRC |
22:20.17 | lmadsen | <PROTECTED> |
22:20.27 | tzanger | no, I disagree with how it is matching, because in your case it should match what is in the current context first |
22:20.54 | tzanger | and in my example, it should hit the first found, which is what's in [foo] |
22:20.56 | tzanger | but I digress |
22:21.26 | lmadsen | ya... the thing is asterisk thinks it is executing in [phones], and not in checkVoicemail because that is the context your phone is associated with, and it just checks the includes ... I guess at each line of the dialplan |

23:14.32 | teknoprep | how do i get rid of auto dial completion on polycom ? |
23:14.35 | Greek-Boy | how does once force a dundi lookup? |
23:14.52 | teknoprep | lets say i am trying to dial exten 102 but my parking lot is on 10 through 19 |
23:14.56 | teknoprep | it just dials 10 |
23:15.02 | teknoprep | it won't let me finish dialing to 102 |
23:15.32 | b11d | is there any way to stop these drasted "Really Destroying SIP Dialog..." messages without disabling verbose debug? |
23:15.54 | lmadsen | teknoprep: you need to modify the dialplan on the polycom |
23:16.00 | teknoprep | lmadsen, yup |
23:16.02 | lmadsen | in your sip.cfg file |
23:16.11 | teknoprep | lmadsen, yup... which option.. i only have about 300 options |
23:16.18 | teknoprep | <PROTECTED> |
23:16.19 | lmadsen | teknoprep: look for 'dialplan' I think |
23:16.21 | teknoprep | would that be it ? |
23:16.38 | b11d | its the "digitmap" |
23:16.40 | b11d | in sip.cfg |
23:16.42 | lmadsen | grab the polycom documentation from their website (administrators guide) and learn about that option |
23:16.44 | teknoprep | dialplan.applyToUserDial="1" |
23:16.47 | teknoprep | oh digitmap |
23:16.55 | b11d | aye |

23:18.03 | teknoprep | that is what i have |
23:18.15 | teknoprep | any idea on what to change ? |
23:18.23 | completely_phukt | JT: u still there? why do u think my RTP range is too small? |
23:18.52 | *** join/#asterisk inadaptado (n=matias@190.3.121.15) |
23:19.09 | teknoprep | completely_phukt, try using 1000 ports... like 10001 - 110001 |
23:19.29 | lmadsen | completely_phukt: fyi -- 1 phone call (2 channels) = 4 RTP ports |
23:19.45 | completely_phukt | OK, 1000 it is |
23:20.12 | hax | who are the other popular providers besides callcentric? |
23:20.20 | lmadsen | and make sure your firewall matches the rtp port range you have asterisk configured as |
23:20.22 | completely_phukt | teknorep: doesn't look like u got option for 102 |

23:21.48 | lmadsen | (sometimes) |
23:21.56 | teknoprep | b11d, any idea on the digitmap ? |
23:22.30 | completely_phukt | he-he |
23:23.06 | JT | completely_phukt: it's 10 ports, way too small |
23:23.13 | JT | completely_phukt: the default range is fine |
23:24.57 | teknoprep | can i just get rid of the digitmap ? |
23:26.36 | teknoprep | ahh that works better |
23:26.39 | teknoprep | much better |
23:26.52 | completely_phukt | JT: why is it only 10 ports? 10000 to 10100 is 100 RTP ports, no? |
23:28.11 | completely_phukt | teknorep: u need something like [1-8]xx in your string (my memories are failing me) |
23:28.19 | JT | completely_phukt: ah, right |
23:28.30 | JT | completely_phukt: still, the default is fine for most setups |
23:28.56 | completely_phukt | JT: ok, I am convinced. 1000 it is :) |
23:29.28 | Greek-Boy | lmadsen sorry I phrasd the question wrong. How can I force an extension to go to a dundi peer? |
23:29.32 | completely_phukt | teknoprep: u need something like [1-8]xx in your string (my memories are failing me) |
23:29.47 | teknoprep | completely_phukt, no i just left it blank.. and it works fine |
23:30.30 | completely_phukt | teknoprep, that'll do |
23:31.12 | lmadsen | Greek-Boy: I still don't understand your question...... it's just dialplan logic. Set(RESPONSE=${DUNDILOOKUP(...)}) |
23:31.23 | lmadsen | Dial(${RESPONSE}) |
23:31.49 | hax | is there a list of differences between 1.4.x and 1.2.x? i'm trying to decide which to install |
23:32.43 | completely_phukt | 1.4 has built-in web server 8o |
23:33.28 | b11d | teknoprep.. stil working on that? |
23:33.33 | teknoprep | b11d, naw i got it |
23:33.40 | teknoprep | b11d, i looked up how to setup digitmaps |
23:33.42 | b11d | oh ok.. had to step away for abit.. sorry.. glad to hear it though. |
23:33.56 | teknoprep | b11d, very nice on how they do this... cisco sip implementation really does suck |
23:34.02 | b11d | hell yes it does |
23:34.18 | b11d | they wanted you to use MGCP i guess.. |
23:34.21 | teknoprep | b11d, i think i am going to start using only polycom phones... as i just bought an IP 650 for an office i am installing a phone system for... going to try it out |
23:34.39 | b11d | ive deployed about 400 polycoms.. 501s and now some 650s and everyone loves them |
23:34.49 | b11d | and they are not so expensive, and easy to administer too. |
23:35.24 | lmadsen | ya... I don't bother with anything but polycom. I don't usually have to deal with the phone part of the install, but it's the only thing I recommend |
23:36.03 | b11d | same.. I cant think of any reason not to use polycoms, except that you cannot adjust stand the phone sits on.. and their wall-mounts are kinda weak. |
23:36.09 | b11d | but those are trivial problems |
23:36.34 | b11d | I'd just kill for a Polycom with a built-in ATA though :) |
23:37.29 | JT | completely_phukt: the default is 10000-20000 |
23:37.38 | JT | completely_phukt: that's 10000 ports |
23:38.18 | teknoprep | i have been using cisco 7940 and 7960 phones becuase i get them from companies that i switch from cisco call manager to asterisk |
23:38.30 | completely_phukt | JT: what am I gonna do with all these ports? ;) |
23:38.53 | teknoprep | i also have ALOT of 3524-pwr switches for inline power for cisco phones.. i do prefer cisco switches but there 802.3af switch are so expensi ve |
23:39.06 | b11d | polys can take PoE just fine |
23:39.55 | lmadsen | hax: see CHANGES |
23:40.00 | lmadsen | in the source |
23:40.05 | JT | b11d: 802.3af PoE, that is |
23:40.13 | b11d | yeah |
23:40.18 | lmadsen | a lot <-- two words |
23:40.45 | SomethingISOdd | hello all question is there anyway to see the calls live going through asterisk with the duration? |
23:40.46 | JT | b11d: the older cisco PoE switches are not compliant with the standard |
23:40.53 | b11d | hax.. theres no reason not go to with 1.4.. I cant imagine 1.2 being supported for too much longer. |
23:41.05 | b11d | oh really? that doesnt surpirse me :) |
23:41.06 | Greek-Boy | thanks lmadsen |

23:42.28 | b11d | it must be getting more difficult to manage asterisk with maintaining 1.2, 1.4, and now the 1.6 branch.. |
23:42.32 | Greek-Boy | is it possible to echo variables from the CLI? such as ${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%d%m%Y-%H%M%S)} |
23:42.55 | parfums^^ | italiani? |
23:43.07 | b11d | parfums^^.. no english? |
23:43.35 | completely_phukt | parfums^^, my wife italiani. me no :) |
23:44.11 | hax | lmadsen: that is a lot of changes |
23:44.19 | lmadsen | hax: yes. it is. |
23:44.25 | lmadsen | Asterisk develops VERY rapidly |
23:44.30 | hax | b11d: yeah, but i need to either find a deb package backported for etch (which i haven't been able to do), or i need to build from source (which i'm not sure i should do) |
23:44.36 | lmadsen | if you're learning, just skip 1.2 |
23:44.47 | hax | yeah, i see 1.6 beta is already on the site |
23:45.12 | lmadsen | Greek-Boy: Verbose(1,${MYVAR_OR_FUNCTION}) |
23:45.13 | hax | lmadsen: how would you recommend i install it? this is 100% voip btw, no real phone hardware |
23:45.28 | lmadsen | hax: I recommend you follow the instructions in the book |
23:45.35 | lmadsen | jbot: tell hax about thebook |

23:46.15 | jameswf-home | I like t shirts too |
23:46.38 | Greek-Boy | lmadsen: so the only way to see a variable is from the dial plan? no way from CLI? |
23:46.51 | lmadsen | Greek-Boy: what CLI.... |
23:46.59 | lmadsen | I can only assume you mean the Asterisk CLI |
23:47.01 | Greek-Boy | asterisk cli |
23:47.05 | Greek-Boy | yes |
23:47.11 | lmadsen | jameswf-home: haha... you want a cut of the $0.33? :) |
23:47.27 | jameswf-home | not a big cut |
23:47.29 | jameswf-home | :) |
23:47.31 | completely_phukt | lmadsen: didja write the book? |
23:47.36 | lmadsen | Greek-Boy: the variable only exists when the channel exists... |
23:47.52 | Greek-Boy | ok then |
23:48.02 | lmadsen | completely_phukt: no, but I heard some devilishly handsome guy did |
23:48.16 | lmadsen | I just happen to have the same name as him |
23:48.20 | hax | lmadsen: hmm, i see |
23:48.20 | lmadsen | and look exactly like him |
23:48.23 | lmadsen | but I'm cooler |
23:48.30 | lmadsen | which is a feat in and of itself |
23:49.05 | completely_phukt | cool. man |
23:51.12 | jameswf-home | I pirate gpl software ..... |
23:51.33 | lmadsen | ummm... u go gurl? |
23:52.47 | hax | lmadsen: for 1.4 without any phone hardware, do i need to bother with the zaptel/pri stuff? the book says i probably want ztdummy anyway... but do i need that? |
23:53.37 | lmadsen | hax: yes -- you need it for timing in order to use things like MeetMe() conferencing |
23:54.03 | jameswf-home | AP: (iraq) Suicide bombers will now have a cell phone controlled backup detination switch, based on a gps an astrisk controlled phone system will call the bombers cellphone when the reach their target in case they decide they dont want their 72 virgins |
