00:46.25 | unpaidbill | sendfax |
00:46.28 | unpaidbill | i'm using 1.6 |

01:22.52 | chaozer | i have a 100% successrate on incoming faxes (more or less) .. and something like 50% on outgoing.... not suprising considering its over VoIP... .. but I dont understand why it differs so much depending on if its outgoign or incoming. |
01:22.57 | unpaidbill | the best i've found is winprint hylafax but it doesnt support a cover page, i was gonna add it in but i dont have any way to compile borland C |
01:23.02 | chaozer | unpaidbill, email. |
01:23.22 | unpaidbill | do you just attach a default cover page? or use the body of the email? |
01:23.53 | unpaidbill | your upstream sucks maybe? :P |
01:24.23 | chaozer | i use it together with AvantFax .. so you can actually choose to attach a cover when sending with a nice web interface :) |
01:24.39 | unpaidbill | ahh that's the payware hylafax deal right? |
01:24.43 | chaozer | upstream AND downstream both suck :) |
01:24.48 | chaozer | payware? nah |
01:24.58 | chaozer | its a free webinterface written in php |

01:26.45 | unpaidbill | well i cant vouch for sweden |
01:26.58 | chaozer | yeah ... pretty much everyone else does support it ... but not them :) |
01:27.11 | chaozer | which is ..... pretty annoying right now ;) |
01:27.51 | chaozer | right now we have fax sending working well with just a normal analogue line and a faxmodem ;) .... it sucks a bit as you can only send one at a time ... but its an ok solution. |

02:55.18 | RB2 | chaozer, yeah, it is and they have instructions for asterisk. But, I'm using FreePBX and I don't think the extension properties are labeled the same as in the conf file. |
02:55.41 | chaozer | ah... |
02:56.13 | RB2 | I've setup asterisk before, but I'm still a newbie. So, figuring it out is like banging my head against the wall. :-P |
02:56.39 | chaozer | RB2, well.. whats the problem right now then ? |
02:56.41 | RB2 | But at least I got the poly 650 up and running. ;) |

02:57.34 | chaozer | i ironed out my problems via the cli and sip debug 9 when I set up my rixtelecom connection. |
02:57.52 | drmessano | Why do you need to set a fromuser for the extension? |
02:58.01 | drmessano | Don't you mean for the "trunk"? |

03:00.08 | RB2 | I checked the trunk configuration, but I don't see ANY of the properties they want me to set. They all show up under extensions. |
03:00.37 | RB2 | This is what they have: http://www.broadvoice.com/support_install_asterisk.html |
03:02.19 | chaozer | googling on freepbx .. it looks as if it should be possible to set fromuser and everything else... |
03:02.52 | drmessano | It is |
03:03.05 | RB2 | Ah ha! |
03:03.16 | drmessano | You dont set up an EXTENSION for connecting to an ITSP |
03:03.20 | RB2 | I guess I was having a "duh" moment. I found it |
03:03.24 | drmessano | You build params for the peer |
03:03.25 | chaozer | ok :) |
03:03.30 | chaozer | RB2, good ;) |
03:03.51 | RB2 | drmessano, I didn't think so. But, I was being an idiot and didn't see the "PEER Details" box |
03:03.57 | chaozer | i prefer "vi" over freepbx myself :P |
03:04.46 | drmessano | vi is lame |
03:04.54 | jblack | vim, however, rocks |
03:04.59 | RB2 | I much prefer to work on the command-line. |
03:05.19 | chaozer | naturally ... im using vim :) |
03:06.02 | chaozer | vi.. vim ... tomatoe tomato..... |
03:06.03 | drmessano | vi is another one of those effing apps that people use so they can claim to be so overly elite, yet, their use of such an antiquated time consuming POS only shows how much of a douche they're being |
03:06.18 | drmessano | Like "I wrote my whole website in notepad" <--- Spare time? |
03:06.31 | jblack | I have to disagree completely. |
03:07.02 | chaozer | drmessano, ... well .. when you are using SSH to remote login to a terminal ... it is prefered to use a tool like that ;) |
03:07.14 | jblack | vim is a complicated tool, it does take time and practice to get effective with.. get past that 1 month hump, and it's very quick and powerful. |
03:07.28 | jblack | perhaps two months. |
03:07.34 | drmessano | or you can use nano and be done with it |
03:07.37 | drmessano | oh wait |
03:07.42 | jblack | omg. You're not serious? |

03:08.05 | chaozer | jblack, lol .. i remember when first using it ... i thought to myself... man "this is crazy" .. but the company where I worked at the time were using only VI on the Tru64 machines ..... |
03:08.33 | chaozer | nano is ok I guess.... |
03:08.59 | jblack | I suppose, as long as you're not writing code, or you're making a small, simple fix. |
03:09.10 | chaozer | i myself however am pretty used to vi by now ... once you are used to it .. you can actually use it very efficiently .. much more so than nano. |
03:09.11 | drmessano | What is wrong wiht it? |
03:09.40 | jblack | Well, it's rather limited in it's abilities. |
03:09.59 | drmessano | It's a text editor.. Why does it need to be overly complicated or there even be a discussion about being "limited" |
03:10.08 | drmessano | Open text, modify it, save it |
03:10.11 | jblack | nothing needs to be over complicated. |
03:10.14 | drmessano | Like an etch-a-sketh |
03:10.17 | drmessano | sketch* |
03:10.28 | drmessano | So how is nano "limited"? |
03:10.42 | chaozer | drmessano, you dont want to go there ;) |
03:10.48 | chaozer | believe me |
03:10.55 | drmessano | wtf? |
03:11.05 | mateo_au | drmessano, you just said that nano is the windows of editors -- isn't that limitation enough? |
03:11.05 | drmessano | Are you serious? |
03:11.22 | jblack | It's missing about 98% of what's in vim. Syntax highlighting. Quick navigation, regex search and replace, multiple windows. multiple buffers. |
03:11.32 | seanbright | drmessano: because it doesn't require control + meta + blood of first born to search and replace |
03:11.41 | seanbright | nano has syntax highlighting |
03:11.52 | drmessano | No, people seem to thing using nano makes you a windows user or something. |
03:12.11 | chaozer | jblack, nano actually has syntax highlighting these days :) |
03:12.15 | seanbright | as well as multiple buffers |
03:12.29 | jblack | I'd have to agree. The first time I see someone fire up nano, I have to bite my tongue, lest I gripe "god damnit. You didn't tell me you were a newb" |
03:12.54 | seanbright | ugh |
03:13.02 | jblack | I get that you have a different opinion for that tool, and I respect that. I also have the right to mine. |
03:13.04 | drmessano | How the hell does using a certain TEXT editor make you a NEWB? |
03:13.23 | drmessano | lol |
03:13.28 | jblack | Because the tools someone uses reflects upon their skillset. |
03:13.40 | seanbright | drmessano: because although you are entitled to your opinion, it's not his, to you're WRONG |
03:13.43 | seanbright | heh |
03:13.46 | drmessano | I once again affirm my position that vi only exists for people to feel more elite |
03:13.55 | jblack | I'm not saying he's wrong. I think he's wrong. He probably thinks I'm wrong too. |
03:13.59 | seanbright | interesting... i always thought you used the right tool for the right job |
03:14.15 | chaozer | but the shortcuts in nano are less managable ... it takes more time to handle because of double keypreses instead of like in vi where you only use single keypresses .. its faster to navigate in vi .. when coding it makes a huge difference |
03:14.31 | jblack | I wouldn't use vim as a filesystem browser. That's bash's job. |
03:14.43 | seanbright | bash? newb. |
03:14.47 | seanbright | heh |
03:15.04 | drmessano | would rather be coding in a GUI environment anyway, with real navigable windows |
03:15.25 | jblack | Seriously, if you're someone that spends a lot of time working in particular formats, you're naturally going to gravitate towards tools that render you more capable in that area. |
03:15.30 | jblack | At least normally. |
03:15.35 | drmessano | Hang on, lemme Tab-Ctrl-Scroll Lock 11 times to get to the window where my SIP.conf is.. |
03:15.37 | drmessano | Crap, 12 |
03:15.44 | seanbright | what formats require gravitation towards vi? |
03:16.00 | jblack | Require? That's a strawman word. |
03:16.18 | jblack | imply I can live with. Line oriented text documents. |
03:16.29 | seanbright | jblack: line oriented text documents... "text files" |
03:16.39 | chaozer | anyway .. nano is easier to get into ;) .. so both have their advantages and disadvantages ;) |

03:17.05 | drmessano | Yes, I too find that when I edit a text document in foopedit vs poofedit, the text seems more powerful |
03:17.42 | drmessano | This is why EDLIN remained in DOS until 6.22 |
03:17.53 | seanbright | i think assuming something about one's skillset based upon their choice of text editor is a bit silly |
03:17.54 | jblack | Take xml files for example. editing xml with vim is hell on earth. |
03:18.14 | jblack | You're welcome to your own rules of thumb. :) |
03:18.29 | chaozer | jblack, why ? |

03:24.42 | seanbright | chaozer: why is that amazing? |

03:25.09 | seanbright | agreed. but i fear it's moot at this point. |
03:25.18 | chaozer | seanbright, its so unflexible :) ... and UI wize I always get a shiver when using it ... |
03:25.20 | jblack | Sure. But surely you admit that if the investment in a more complicated tool saves much more time than the initial investment in extra learning, then it's worth it. |
03:25.40 | seanbright | chaozer: i haven't noticed it to be inflexible. |
03:25.42 | jblack | Fine. YOu want me to be blunt, and borderline rude? |
03:25.56 | jameswf-home | oh yeah |
03:26.02 | drmessano | Unneccesarily complicating a simple task is not saving time |

03:26.49 | TrentCreek | http://www.videosinhd.com/mega.html?file=TX325V8Q |
03:26.55 | jblack | I think nano is innefficient for editing all but simplist of things. Someone that hasn't taken the time to work with any but the simplist of tools is inefficient and lazy, in my eye, and noncompetititve. |
03:26.57 | seanbright | chaozer: package management? you mean like installers and uninstallers? |
03:27.16 | chaozer | seanbright, not really no |
03:27.21 | seanbright | chaozer: ok |
03:27.24 | jblack | ANd if they're doing it on purpose, they either stubborn, stupid, or both. |

03:28.05 | drmessano | Again, taking a simple task and applying overly complicated processes to it, makes it nothing more than overly complicated |
03:28.06 | chaozer | seanbright, package handling .. as something that keeps track of what files belong to what package .. and let you update software easily and quickly.... and a big repository of software :) |
03:28.09 | jblack | pardon, you only know nano, so you can't make an informed comparison. |
03:28.17 | chaozer | seanbright, thats something windows is really falling behind on. |

In my opinion, repos are good for some core applications, but beyond that, they're full of out of date, badly packaged crap |

03:40.50 | seanbright | chaozer: i am trying to figure out what your point is. not having "package management" as defined by the linux/bsd/<insert flavor here> is bad? |
03:40.52 | chaozer | drmessano, i use debian testing for example :) .. and i think i have 1.4.21 |
03:41.08 | jblack | I happen to know of a server out there that's still running 2.0.20, that just keeps chugging along. ) |
03:41.25 | chaozer | seanbright, im wondering why you think package handling is only usable for servers and not desktops ? |
03:41.31 | seanbright | chaozer: ... |
03:41.36 | seanbright | chaozer: *my* desktops |

03:42.00 | chaozer | right |
03:42.03 | seanbright | right. |
03:42.16 | seanbright | package management is a requirement for you on your desktop OS |
03:42.26 | drmessano | jameswf-home: Sure, if you're happy with the performance of an app with known issues that have been LONG resolved.. If a newer version of something will cut down on CPU usage, increase scalability, just by virtue of being NEWER and less buggy, why stick with something old? That's like running Windows 95 on a P4.. it will run, but why? |
03:42.28 | jblack | If I hear "well capitalized" one more time, I'm gonna take a CDO and shove it up that analyst's butt until VIX comes out the ears. |
03:42.30 | seanbright | because your choice of desktop OS *dictates* package management |
03:42.37 | chaozer | seanbright, very much so yes, |
03:42.44 | chaozer | seanbright, and it saves me alot of time. |
03:42.48 | jblack | drmessano: it's about the devil you know, versus the devil ya don't. :| |
03:42.52 | seanbright | chaozer: well i am happy for you |
03:43.17 | chaozer | no need to hunt for new versions of everything like you have to do with windows.... unless the application has some built in update service :) |
03:43.20 | seanbright | chaozer: i do not use my desktop in a manner that requires me to download software with many dependencies at the same time |
03:43.41 | drmessano | chaozer: Sure sure, because repos are SOOOO up to date.. oh wait, no |
03:43.43 | chaozer | and you dont update your software either on a regular basis then |
03:43.54 | seanbright | chaozer: and if i want to install software that has dependencies, 99 out of 100 times, that software comes with it's dependencies |
03:44.05 | jblack | I can check unstable in ubuntu to see how far back * is |
03:44.25 | chaozer | drmessano, they are up-to-date if you use good repos yes.. for example debian testing or debian unstable. |
03:44.59 | chaozer | 1.4.21 in debian testing .. and debian testing I consider more or less stable :) |

03:45.22 | drmessano | seanbright: That is good point.. I dont need to see that 115 dependencies were updated... Sure on windows it's Visual C, maybe .NET updates, etc, but in a 30MB cabinet it's done.. or I can do a 30MB yum update and see a bunch of leenix fly by.. Who cares.. |
03:45.24 | seanbright | chaozer: i update my software every opportunity i have. microsoft update gives me windows, driver, and office updates automatically. most of the other apps i have installed have built in update notification. |

03:46.32 | jblack | in debian sid, it's.. 1.4.21.2 |
03:46.34 | seanbright | drmessano: i think you make yum run quietly. |
03:46.53 | chaozer | drmessano, and who said you have to care about the dependencies ? you dont .. it just tells you have many packages its downloading .... could be useful if one fails ;) .. better redownload 10KB than resuming a 30MB file and risk corruption |
03:46.56 | seanbright | drmessano: the problem with yum update is sometimes you have to recompile/reinstall zaptel or DAHDI or whatever. |
03:46.57 | jblack | drmessano: You're aware that many package based systems allow you to pin different things to different releases, right? |
03:47.05 | drmessano | seanbright: Point being why do I need to have that sort of microscopic control over things I shouldn't waste my time processing anyway? |
03:47.07 | jblack | So you can have a stable base system, and pull * just from unstable. |
03:47.23 | seanbright | drmessano: you can have as little or as much detail as you want. |
03:47.34 | chaozer | drmessano, and you never have to care about any microscopic control in for example debian or ubuntu .. isnt it neat ? ;) |
03:47.40 | jblack | feels like he's in a discussion with a slackware user that thinks nano is cool. |
03:47.50 | seanbright | ugh. |
03:47.51 | drmessano | Yep yep.. |
03:47.52 | seanbright | exhausting. |
03:48.05 | jblack | chaozer: You elite bastard you. All them frumpy packing stuff, wasting your time! |
03:48.19 | chaozer | seanbright, fedora repos are kinda crappy really :) ... |

03:51.13 | drmessano | Yeah, because pulling apps from a linux repo labeled as "unstable" isn't scary at all |
03:51.18 | drmessano | lol |
03:51.28 | chaozer | seanbright, a few years ago when I switched to linux there were alot of problems with package managmenet ;) .... |
03:51.44 | drmessano | and not now? lol *cough* |
03:52.01 | chaozer | seanbright, but nowdays it works extremely well :) |
03:52.02 | seanbright | chaozer: my experience with package management is the following 'yum install kernel-devel' and 'yum update' |
03:52.21 | seanbright | chaozer: i have no need or desire to use it otherwise |
03:52.28 | chaozer | even being able to do "yum update" is greay :) |
03:52.33 | chaozer | great |
03:52.39 | seanbright | yes it is |
03:52.50 | drmessano | seanbright: I always find it necessary to print a list of all yum updates and check the dependencies using Google |
03:53.00 | drmessano | Before I hit "Y" |
03:53.05 | chaozer | guess why windows users have such big problems with holes in software etc ;) ? |
03:53.08 | seanbright | chaozer: but if i had to go to a website and download a big ZIP file and extract that and then run ./update-everything.sh |
03:53.10 | RB2 | Yay! I got an outgoing call to work via broadvoice! :D |
03:53.12 | seanbright | chaozer: i would be fine with that too |
03:53.19 | chaozer | thats what you get when you run software that is not up to date. |
03:53.34 | drmessano | HA |
03:53.44 | jeff_smoker | Does anyone know of a good resource for hooking a gprs modem into asterisk? |
03:53.55 | drmessano | Windows users running out of date software.. Oh yeah, never gotten that from a current distro lol |
03:54.00 | jeff_smoker | Resource meaning tutorial, etc. |
03:54.45 | seanbright | chaozer: that is a pretty broad statement. linux has had it's security problems as well. |
03:54.48 | chaozer | distributions like ubuntu even force you to install security updates for example :) |
03:55.06 | seanbright | chaozer: and as i've said, windows updates takes care of updating the OS whenever an update is available. |
03:55.16 | chaozer | seanbright, yes but the magic is that everyone is updated very quickly :) .. be it a bug in the kernel or in some software. |
03:55.17 | RB2 | drmessano, in FreePBX for trunks, why is there a user context field and then a context property in the user details? |
03:55.19 | drmessano | Windows can force you as well |
03:55.31 | chaozer | seanbright, yes but all holes are not always in the OS itself |
03:55.53 | seanbright | chaozer: i'm not even sure what we are talking about anymore... |
03:55.59 | seanbright | chaozer: you heart linux, so do i |
03:56.02 | chaozer | seanbright, so how do you fix that without package managmenet ? you can't .. instead you run software with holes in them |
03:56.07 | seanbright | chaozer: you are not a windows fan, i use it on my desktop |
03:56.26 | seanbright | chaozer: you download an update |

03:56.55 | drmessano | update* |
03:56.59 | seanbright | jameswf-home: asterisk? waiting on dahdi |
03:57.04 | chaozer | seanbright, so you have to surf the web and check for security updates for all applications you are runing ? yeah right |
03:57.13 | drmessano | chaozer: Has this little "ZOMG UPDATE NOW" thingo |
03:57.17 | jameswf-home | in 1.4.22 |
03:57.42 | seanbright | chaozer: no, as i said earlier, "microsoft update" updates all microsoft software. most of the other software has update functionality built in. |
03:57.47 | drmessano | chaozer: It's obvious you're not very knowledgeable of windows, so please, stop now |
03:58.12 | seanbright | jameswf-home: what about 1.4.22? |
03:58.19 | seanbright | jameswf-home: all asterisk releases are waiting on dahdi |
03:58.28 | jameswf-home | i knew windows pretty well up to two years ago when i stopped using it |
03:58.29 | chaozer | so when you install asterisk yo get security updates ? |
03:58.37 | seanbright | chaozer: install asterisk where? |
03:58.40 | chaozer | sounds strange |
03:58.52 | chaozer | from a or freepbx |
03:59.04 | jameswf-home | seanbright: 1.4.22 is rcf so I should be cool if i dont care about dahdi |
03:59.07 | chaozer | how about for example.... |
03:59.12 | jameswf-home | *RC5 |
03:59.24 | seanbright | jameswf-home: well... i know a couple more fixes have gone in since rc5 was tagger... |
03:59.26 | drmessano | chaozer: It's one thing to intelligently discuss the issues windows does have, but most of the FUD that comes from former or non-windows users if only laughable and shows that the extent of the knowledge from the bashing side seemed to have ended in 1996 |
03:59.30 | chaozer | http://www.asteriskwin32.com/ ? |
03:59.39 | seanbright | chaozer: i don't run asterisk on windows |
03:59.47 | chaozer | thats not the point |
03:59.51 | chaozer | its just an example |
03:59.52 | seanbright | sure it is |
03:59.54 | seanbright | no |
03:59.58 | drmessano | How is AsteriskWin32 a point? |
03:59.59 | seanbright | i am talking about *me* |
04:00.06 | seanbright | i am not talking about the general windows user |
04:00.09 | seanbright | i am talking about seanbright |
04:00.16 | seanbright | and i have been the entire time |
04:00.26 | chaozer | drmessano, my point is you wont get windows update to update your asterisk installation |
04:00.34 | jameswf-home | seanbright: russel said to try it and see if it correects the need for do not optimize on debian but the wife wont be happy if i break it since the work around did okay |
04:00.53 | seanbright | jameswf-home: this the GCC optimzation thing? |
04:00.55 | drmessano | AsteriskWin32 is a port thrown together by some yahoo and thrown on a site.. Much like if I made an app in linux and threw the tarball on my site.. how is that different? |
04:00.57 | drmessano | Its not |
04:00.59 | jameswf-home | yeah |
04:01.02 | drmessano | Youre just making crap up now |
04:01.08 | chaozer | drmessano, yes like 99% OF ALL SOFTWARE FOR WINDOWS |
04:01.09 | km2 | anyone know about editing digitmaps in polycom config files? i'm getting frustrated that none of mine are "taking" (having any effect). i event went as far as downloading new firmware and config files from polycom, but still even the default digit maps aren't working. any ideas? |
04:01.09 | seanbright | jameswf-home: should be resolved |
04:01.14 | drmessano | chaozer: Not true |
04:01.16 | chaozer | drmessano, because THATS THE ONLY WAY to install stuff |
04:01.26 | drmessano | lol |
04:01.30 | chaozer | drmessano, because there is no repository |
04:01.37 | drmessano | Repos do not fix anything |
04:01.39 | seanbright | chaozer: ahhh... well i think those two statements tell me everything i need to know about you |
04:01.42 | drmessano | they create problems |
04:01.48 | drmessano | are out of date for the most part |
04:01.51 | chaozer | drmessano, so you are always risking to run software with alot of holes in them .. and/or old stuff |
04:01.53 | chaozer | period |
04:01.59 | drmessano | if you are security concious, you dont use repos |
04:02.04 | drmessano | You update the apps like a good admin |
04:02.14 | drmessano | Grab source or current tarball, update and save the day |
04:02.16 | seanbright | chaozer: it's all about the user, not about the OS |
04:02.17 | chaozer | drmessano, lol no |
04:02.21 | drmessano | Not wait for the repo to update |
04:02.22 | drmessano | Thats lame |
04:02.37 | seanbright | chaozer: there are linux users out there still running vulnerable installs of openssh |
04:02.38 | chaozer | drmessano, security updates are always commited QUCIKLY |
04:02.42 | seanbright | chaozer: package management or not |
04:02.50 | chaozer | drmessano, and you CANNOT keep track of all security holes in all apps yourself |
04:03.00 | drmessano | If I waited for a fix to a 0-day exploit in a repo, i would be sorry as hell |
04:03.00 | chaozer | drmessano, thats the most stupid thing I ever heard. |
04:03.05 | drmessano | May as well turn the firewall oof |
04:03.07 | drmessano | LOL |
04:03.11 | drmessano | Sure, sure |
04:03.33 | jameswf-home | security is a myth and is way over rated |
04:03.45 | chaozer | seanbright, ofcourse.... but how many more windows users in % are runing systems with alot of holes in them do you think ? ;) |
04:03.57 | lanning | na, security is an onion! |
04:04.10 | drmessano | Probably more linux systems out there with holes in them than windows due to misconfiguration |
04:04.15 | jameswf-home | I like to think of it as a parfait |
04:04.20 | drmessano | But LinuxOwns.com wont tell you that |
04:04.31 | chaozer | drmessano, thats bs |
04:04.34 | drmessano | lol |
04:04.43 | seanbright | chaozer: what is your point? windows users on average are not as technically savvy as linux users? i don't think it would take a rocket scientist to figure that out. |
04:04.45 | heedly | windows is insecure due to system flaws in code. |
04:04.47 | heedly | not user errors. |
04:04.51 | drmessano | I know.. Linux is secure just because it exists, windows sucks.. yeah yeah |
04:04.54 | drmessano | Sounds like a netadmin |
04:04.59 | chaozer | drmessano, why would a linux desktop be more misconfigured than windows ? |
04:05.05 | jameswf-home | rumor has it the only OS to never be hacked is netware |
04:05.07 | heedly | security is in the hands of the user. |
04:05.12 | seanbright | ok, i grow weary of this |
04:05.18 | chaozer | seanbright, thats not true anymore either |
04:05.19 | drmessano | I could install Redhat 4.0 right now be secure because Linux is so secure 4eva |
04:05.26 | seanbright | chaozer: answer this question |
04:05.30 | chaozer | seanbright, linux has 6% of the market now ;) |
04:05.34 | seanbright | chaozer: WHAT POINT ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE? |
04:05.40 | seanbright | chaozer: GET TO THE POINT |
04:05.58 | jameswf-home | I can say neither my former windoze boxen nor any of my current linux boxen were ever comprimised |
04:06.01 | chaozer | seanbright, i dont even know what we are discussing anymore.. like most discussions it got out of hand ;) |

04:06.10 | seanbright | chaozer: neither do i |
04:06.24 | drmessano | He doesnt have one.. its the same FUD that I can get from Slashdot |
04:06.29 | seanbright | chaozer: you don't like windows and it's not secure... does that about sum it up? |
04:06.56 | chaozer | pretty much :) .. |
04:07.01 | seanbright | chaozer: great. |
04:07.03 | jameswf-home | I dont like windows but it was as secure as my linux because i made it so |
04:07.25 | chaozer | I think theres a reason why linux is slowly eating into microsoft market share overall :) |
04:07.30 | seanbright | ugh... |
04:07.36 | seanbright | apparently he is not done making his point |
04:07.39 | chaozer | lol :) |
04:07.50 | drmessano | Honestly, what most so-called expert non-windows users seem to know about windows is amazingly laughable, and probably why Windows systems admined by *nix admins are the most insecure boxes known to mankind, even trumping the "family computer" |
04:08.00 | jameswf-home | its like being stabbed to death with a butter knife |
04:08.05 | seanbright | it really is |
04:08.27 | chaozer | drmessano, its not like I never used windows ;) |

04:15.47 | jameswf-home | go to the cli in console 8 no login and !rm -rf / |
04:15.48 | seanbright | timholum: at minimum you'd need to put the provisioning server address into the phone |
04:15.49 | chaozer | that would be scary |

04:16.07 | drmessano | seanbright: WHAT? |
04:16.38 | drmessano | A lot of phones look for /someconfig.xml on the root of the DHCP defined TFTP server |
04:16.43 | RB2 | timholum, at least with the Polycom phones, you can use DHCP to tell the phone where the boot server is. Not sure about other brands. |
04:16.46 | drmessano | and you step from there |
04:17.30 | drmessano | On the linksys phones, I can push a /default.xml that points to http://server/config$mac.xml |
04:17.43 | drmessano | and literally unbox and provision |
04:17.44 | chaozer | why on earth can the trixbox user sudo ? |

04:18.19 | seanbright | timholum: sorry about that, apparently you don't need to put a provisioning server address into the phone. |

04:18.31 | frogonwheels | I have a point of confusion about exten=s, - why don't the lines get executed if you put a call into that context? |
04:18.49 | frogonwheels | .. ie having to use _X. |
04:18.51 | timholum | awsome i will check them out |
04:19.02 | drmessano | timholum: Just using that as an example |

04:19.15 | drmessano | timholum: Its not just the linksys phones, but one example |

04:19.40 | chaozer | aaargh where is stargate atlantis ... didnt it air over there already ? |
04:19.52 | drmessano | Someone like [TK]D-Fender could tell you what the polycoms look for as default |
04:20.21 | frogonwheels | jameswf-home: ok - I worked that out - that'll do :) |

04:21.34 | jblack | polycoms, for provisioning? |
04:22.27 | drmessano | jblack: what does a factory new (or reset) polycom look for, provisioning-wise, from the DHCP defined TFTP server? |
04:22.48 | jblack | I believe it's the same for tftp and http. I'm detangling it for http now. |
04:23.15 | jblack | I believe it's ${MAC}.cfg |
04:23.20 | drmessano | Ok |
04:23.21 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano: default is FTP, but stock it doesn't look for Opt66, you have to pick it in the BR |
04:23.32 | drmessano | ick |
04:23.33 | jblack | Which in turn usually loads up a pile of other config scripts. |
04:23.35 | jameswf-home | one of these days i will write an app that allows you to program asterisk like a keysystem..... write a 1500 page manual...... |
04:23.41 | drmessano | But you can't push that via DHCP |
04:23.42 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano: and its starts off <MAC>.cfg to see the list of cfg's its supposed to take. |
04:23.46 | chaozer | btw if anyone ever wants a cordless SIP phone I can recommend siemens S685IP .... it even supports MWI properly and everything :) ... |
04:23.48 | drmessano | So you cant unbox a polycom and make it work? |
04:23.50 | jblack | Probably does 000000000.cfg as well. |
04:23.59 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano: go get your firmware pack and it will come with base provisioning files |
04:24.05 | jblack | Sure you can. I think it loads 00000000.cfg as well. |
04:24.11 | [TK]D-Fender | 00000000.cfg is to be avoided at all costs |
04:24.16 | drmessano | From where, if TFTP doesnt work? |
04:24.22 | jblack | Automagic is generally a bad idea. |
04:24.30 | jblack | On http, it looks on the root directory. |
04:24.49 | drmessano | Um ok |
04:25.18 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano: upon unboxing, prep the provisioning files, power up the phone, go into the BR immediately, set the provisioning server selection method and address, or hard-code them. |
04:25.23 | jblack | Well, actually, it's dependant upon where you set boot-server to. |
04:25.24 | drmessano | So better to touch each phone and point it manually to a location than to let DHCP hand out a TFTP server and have it grab and go? lol |

04:25.52 | jblack | Better is to grab the mac off the back of the phone, hack up the config file on the web server, then plug in the phone. |

05:30.26 | lanning | just don't put a WiFi transmitter next to it. :) |
05:30.28 | drmessano | Chan_mobile works for doing what you asked |
05:30.49 | drmessano | I've had no Wifi problems with bluetooth here |

05:31.35 | lanning | I have been blasted off the air by a coworker doing a WiFi file transfer. |
05:32.03 | jeff_smoker | lanning: Very interesting. |
05:32.17 | drmessano | jeff_smoker: Cheap dongles were shitty.. I got some inexpensive ones from Ebay that work great at 150 feet or so, even though, ideally, you want the phone near the PBX |
05:32.42 | drmessano | I have left my phone in my truck before after work, and had it ring into the PBX here at home |
05:32.54 | drmessano | That's 125 feet or so |
05:33.08 | drmessano | Reminded me I left it outside lol |
05:33.31 | jeff_smoker | drmessano: Its seems strange to me that you can use bluetooth but not a secure data cable connection...what gives |
05:33.34 | jeff_smoker | ? |
05:34.07 | jeff_smoker | drmessano: What dongle did you get off ebay? |
05:34.17 | drmessano | because interfacing asterisk to the bluetooth stack was a hell of a lot easier than creating shitty interfaces for every phone known to man? |
05:34.37 | jeff_smoker | drmessano: makes sense. |
05:35.11 | drmessano | Look for EDR Bluetooth |
05:36.06 | drmessano | I bought a dozen of them for PC's, printers, spares for the car, in the laptop bag, etc |
05:36.09 | drmessano | Work well |
05:36.10 | jeff_smoker | drmessano + Lanning : I suppose you could try to sequester the signal in some kind of faraday cage? Does that make sense |
05:36.26 | drmessano | yes and no |
05:36.31 | drmessano | Not necessary |
05:36.41 | TrentCreek | drmessano: Correct, but Bluetooth is NOT Wifi |
05:36.57 | drmessano | Ok, and? |
05:37.53 | TrentCreek | so of course you never had Wifi problems with bluetooth |
05:38.13 | drmessano | I've never had problems with them fucking interfering |

05:40.27 | drmessano | wow |
05:40.38 | mchou | wtf??? |
05:40.43 | drmessano | Youre a real idiot |
05:40.58 | jeff_smoker | how are you limited in call volume if you're using a mobile phone to PBX rather than a SIP gateway? |
05:41.00 | TrentCreek | lol |
05:41.19 | jeff_smoker | Does anyone know about this? |
05:41.20 | drmessano | lanning was saying he's had problem with Wifi interfering with Bluetooth.. THEY OCCUPY THE SAME SPECTRUM |
05:41.24 | drmessano | I was commenting I had not |
05:41.31 | jeff_smoker | Who cares. |
05:41.33 | drmessano | Seriosuly, TrentCreek |
05:41.51 | mchou | TrentCreek: go get drunk someplace else |
05:41.59 | drmessano | lol |
05:42.35 | drmessano | [01:37] <TrentCreek> drmessano: Correct, but Bluetooth is NOT Wifi <--- and IRC is no substitute for a good education |
05:42.50 | TrentCreek | Bluetooth devices use Frequency Hopping and most WLANs use Direct Sequence Spreading techniques they each appear as background noise to the other and should not cause any perceivable performance issues. |
05:43.04 | drmessano | TrentCreek: Indeed |
05:43.13 | drmessano | TrentCreek: Google is your friend |
05:43.46 | TrentCreek | who? |
05:43.47 | drmessano | TrentCreek: Your attempt and trying to show us you know more than we do has gone horribly wrong |

05:44.17 | lanning | In my case the issue was the noise floor increased too much. (it might just be that my bluetooth headset was way more sensitive to it) |
05:44.35 | TrentCreek | I have not had any floppy problems with my hard driver |
05:44.36 | mchou | drmessano: you are making me HUNGRY :( |
05:44.43 | drmessano | lanning: TrentCreek said it's the flix capacitance |
05:44.53 | lanning | heh |
05:45.00 | jeff_smoker | Why pay for the comedy club? |
05:45.20 | TrentCreek | yeah you got Digital Research Messano |
05:45.51 | drmessano | Much better than "Up The Google Creek Without A Paddle Trent" |
05:46.12 | drmessano | Bluetooth is NOT Wifi <-- remember that kids |
05:46.20 | jeff_smoker | But seriously - what about mobile phone volumes. Does anyone know if you'll hit bottlenecks running your inbound mobile phone calls to a pbx? |
05:46.32 | drmessano | Bottlenecks? |
05:46.43 | jeff_smoker | I mean, lets say you have 3,4,5 calls at the same time |
05:46.48 | drmessano | you get one simultaneous call |
05:46.53 | drmessano | Its a cell phone |
05:47.13 | drmessano | You cant add mod_unicorn to make it handle 5 calls at a time |
05:47.24 | drmessano | 5 phones, 5 dongles, 5 calls |
05:47.44 | drmessano | No bottleneck if youre using 5 devices |
05:47.59 | jeff_smoker | yeah, but the whole point is to save on cost |
05:48.05 | jeff_smoker | use one carrier line |
05:48.11 | drmessano | One line, one call |
05:48.28 | jeff_smoker | are you sure? |
05:48.41 | lanning | LOL |
05:48.41 | drmessano | Does your cellphone handle 3 calls at a time normally? |
05:48.48 | drmessano | How can you make it do MORE than ONE call? |

06:01.52 | TrentCreek | exactly |

06:03.10 | the_5th_wheel | Im not sure if it was the hacked and broken A2Billing system i used that reported it too much |
06:03.22 | the_5th_wheel | Or the new system being broken and reporting too little |
06:03.22 | drmessano | lol |
06:03.43 | drmessano | hacked and broken A2Billing system <--- Even that says a lot, considering "A2Billing" |
06:03.56 | drmessano | Too many variables here |
06:03.57 | the_5th_wheel | It was something i Inherited |

06:04.09 | TrentCreek | it all depends on your provider also |

06:04.38 | mchou | it tastes good? |
06:04.38 | the_5th_wheel | So we rewrote the agi system from scratch to use a logical database structure |
06:04.46 | drmessano | mchou: Damn Skinny |
06:04.47 | the_5th_wheel | whats sloppy sloppy joe? |
06:05.36 | mchou | it's kinda like hamburger with BBQ sauce |

06:38.16 | knobo` | We have asterisk at our office, and the quality is verry good. |
06:38.17 | drmessano | No |
06:38.25 | drmessano | We don't speak badly about Skype here |
06:38.30 | drmessano | Skype is good |
06:38.38 | TrentCreek | yeah...good |
06:38.44 | TrentCreek | as string and cans |
06:38.52 | drmessano | No |
06:38.55 | jblack | Skype is yummy. |
06:39.01 | drmessano | Skype is our friend |
06:39.19 | drmessano | Skype users are welcome and fully supported |
06:39.19 | knobo` | Is it or is it something one can do to find a solution to the problem with the asterisk configuration |
06:39.33 | drmessano | Soylent Green is NOT people |
06:39.37 | TrentCreek | Skype was the reason I ran into Asterisk |
06:40.05 | TrentCreek | Who needs Skype when you can get free used cans and string? |
06:40.26 | drmessano | You keep talking like that, and an OP is gonna explode on your about putting down Skype |
06:40.31 | drmessano | you* |
06:40.40 | drmessano | "Skype is good" |
06:40.41 | jblack | knobo`: It could be any of a million things. The codec. (really) Bad timing. Dropped packets. Loaded network. CPU starvation. Radioactive bastard child, hiding behind the machines. Bad phone cord. Perhaps your dentist filled your teeth with magnets rather than gold. |
06:41.09 | jblack | TrentCreek: Seriously, skype is great. Think through reasons we might say that here.... |
06:41.33 | TrentCreek | I paid the one year plan when it first came out...for $14.95 |
06:41.42 | drmessano | Asking about skype in here is perfectly acceptable |
06:41.48 | drmessano | All day long |
06:41.48 | jblack | Skype rocks. End of story. |
06:41.54 | TrentCreek | The quality was so bad I did not even use it |
06:42.15 | drmessano | Enough of that. Skype == Very Yes |
06:42.29 | TrentCreek | And their "support" was good as their voice quality...NONE |
06:42.39 | mchou | lol |
06:42.44 | mchou | sype support |
06:42.46 | jblack | TrentCreek: Are you willing to personally take on the support role for any clearly, utterly, cluessless users that join here? The sort that need handholding for 8 hours? |
06:42.50 | mchou | skype* |
06:43.11 | drmessano | Skype is Comcastic |

06:49.13 | drmessano | No, I meant voice conference |
06:49.33 | drmessano | The weekly voice conference on Skype to discuss Asterisk |
06:49.43 | drmessano | I think its a GREAT idea |

07:13.13 | jblack | Aren't voicepulse the ones that want a copy of a license, utility bill, fingerprint, dna sample, first born.... ? |
07:13.35 | mchou | "Our rates may be downloaded inside the Account Center." WTF??? |
07:13.39 | jblack | .019 ? Isn't that up? |
07:13.41 | TrentCreek | jblack: yes |
07:14.01 | jblack | to which? |
07:14.05 | TrentCreek | I use RapidVox, but their "support" is non existent |
07:14.09 | mchou | looks like they've jacked up their rates |
07:14.18 | TrentCreek | jblack: Aren't voicepulse the ones that want a copy of a license, utility bill, fingerprint, dna sample, first born.... |
07:14.32 | jblack | .019 sounds high. |
07:14.44 | TrentCreek | for USA? |
07:14.50 | jblack | yeah. |
07:15.14 | mchou | they used to be .01 for most of USA |
07:15.29 | drmessano | .019 is very high |
07:16.18 | TrentCreek | yeah..it was .012 |
07:16.19 | mchou | drmessano: who do you use for termination? |
07:16.43 | drmessano | Les.net currently, looking at Flowroute |
07:16.50 | drmessano | Lowest I have seen yet is Flowroute |
07:16.56 | drmessano | Well |
07:16.58 | drmessano | I take that back |
07:17.11 | drmessano | That whichamacalit one you showed me was lowest |
07:17.14 | mchou | drmessano: you test them out on voice quality? |
07:17.32 | drmessano | I made a few calls.. need to test more |
07:17.35 | jblack | I was talking to future-nine, as their rates are very competitive, but they're more trouble than their worth |
07:18.22 | TrentCreek | RapidVox is .012 |
07:18.42 | TrentCreek | USA calls are premo |
07:19.21 | jblack | CWU is still at .0125 |
07:19.24 | MacWinner | how about voip-jet? i use to have a test account with call-labs, but i've just tried using it and i seem to get a network congestion or busy error anytime i try to make atest call |
07:21.03 | TrentCreek | Voicetrading is good, but.... |
07:21.19 | TrentCreek | you have to fork out 500 Euros each time you make a payment |
07:21.52 | TrentCreek | you can get a trial account with 5 Euros |
07:21.57 | jblack | There was an american company that wantd to sell blocks of $600, but I can't find them. |
07:22.38 | TrentCreek | I think I recall...I heard they sucked, if it is the same company |
07:23.01 | TrentCreek | Their rates, that is |
07:23.44 | jblack | These guys had rates similiar to voicetrading. .0005 |
07:23.49 | jblack | but now I can't find them. |
07:24.13 | TrentCreek | I know another company you can get rates that low |
07:24.20 | TrentCreek | No min payment |
07:24.40 | TrentCreek | but if you dont mind doing biz with UAE |
07:24.50 | jblack | hmmmmm |
07:24.58 | drmessano | I work for haliburton, so im game |
07:24.59 | jblack | latency would probably suck |
07:25.01 | TrentCreek | But then again..Haliburton is now HQ there |
07:25.07 | jblack | UAE is progressive. |
07:25.07 | TrentCreek | no..t |
07:25.28 | TrentCreek | THEY bring different carriers to get bulk pricing |
07:25.29 | drmessano | So who are they? |
07:25.40 | MacWinner | UAE is all expats |
07:25.41 | TrentCreek | carrie exchange |
07:25.46 | TrentCreek | something like that |
07:25.53 | drmessano | I buy my oil from UAE, I can get my Voip there too |

07:27.54 | TrentCreek | I visited CL site and was not impressed |
07:28.41 | TrentCreek | Only problem I see with http://www.carriexchange.com is trying to program all those different routes into your billing app |
07:29.31 | TrentCreek | I guess that is where the $00.25 an hour Hindu comes in. |
07:30.35 | knobo` | I configured a call-queue, and the sound was OK. But, with playback from a context, the sound quality was BAD |
07:31.45 | drmessano | Why do you need to program all the routes? |
07:32.14 | drmessano | Unless you're using LCR with them and someone else |
07:32.20 | TrentCreek | Because you have to go through their system getting pricing on different locations |
07:32.39 | drmessano | Ok, they handle all the LCR though |
07:33.13 | TrentCreek | so if you are looking for lowest cost per cal...could be THOUSANDS of entries |
07:33.47 | drmessano | ok... |
07:33.51 | TrentCreek | because many providers do not have set pricing for one country |
07:33.57 | TrentCreek | liek they do for the US |
07:34.28 | TrentCreek | each city could have a different rate..like for Mexico, for example |
07:34.37 | drmessano | I understand what LCR is |
07:35.34 | TrentCreek | hehe |
07:36.07 | drmessano | ? |
07:36.55 | drmessano | If you're only going to use them for outbound, you need to don't need to process the LCR on your end.. |
07:37.03 | TrentCreek | A good test of a provider is trying out their routes with toll free |
07:37.03 | drmessano | err yeah |
07:37.36 | drmessano | So I am still not following |
07:37.50 | TrentCreek | on Rapid Vox...their US routes are carrier quality |
07:38.06 | TrentCreek | but try call a toll route....it starts breaking in |
07:38.12 | TrentCreek | *up |
07:38.49 | TrentCreek | so means they dont want you using their bandwidth without paying for it |
07:39.51 | drmessano | beats his head on the desk |

07:42.26 | TrentCreek | why I am doing it? I am not doing anything |
07:43.14 | drmessano | If CarrieXchange handles all of the LCR by default on their end and you're not using anyone else for termination, you don't need to program 10000 routes into anything. If you're using them as part of a broader scheme for processing LCR, then I can understand that. |
07:44.39 | TrentCreek | No..they dont..you have to pick and choose you own routes. They only handle the billing |
07:45.27 | drmessano | Least Cost Routing (LCR): |
07:45.27 | drmessano | LCR is set by default to all account to pass traffic through least cost. You have the option |

Do not consider Grandstream phones. Ever. places like such as |
08:02.14 | brian | I just have a cell phone |
08:02.40 | brian | I want a phone that is highly programmable, because I'm a nerd... |
08:02.51 | TrentCreek | with ATA you can have a larger selection of what you want..not too many SIP phones in comparison |
08:03.04 | brian | Like I want to be able to have an emergency pager ring on the phone for example |
08:03.25 | brian | So a client can page me if there is a problem and I'm asleep |
08:03.41 | SkypeHunting | Do you have a PBX to hook it up to? |
08:03.51 | brian | Yeah, I'm gonna run Asterisk |
08:04.15 | SkypeHunting | PAP2T ATA will work with POTS phones |
08:04.24 | brian | I don't have a POTS phone |
08:04.36 | SkypeHunting | You can BUY one |
08:04.40 | SkypeHunting | They're like $15 |
08:04.47 | brian | Why not buy a SIP phone, though? |
08:05.02 | TrentCreek | they cost a lot |
08:05.17 | SkypeHunting | Youre gonna spend minimum of $80 for SIP phone |
08:05.21 | SkypeHunting | Which is fine |

08:08.44 | SkypeHunting | You can do that with any phone |
08:08.58 | brian | How can you do that with any phone? |
08:09.18 | brian | I'm talking about the ring noise it makes when someone calls it. |
08:10.04 | SkypeHunting | I know what distinctive ring is |
08:10.11 | SkypeHunting | or "ring noise" |
08:10.19 | brian | What do you mean you can do it with any phone? |
08:10.28 | SkypeHunting | You can make any phone follow the standard bell distinctive ring patterns |
08:10.56 | SkypeHunting | and most IP phones have custom rings |
08:11.16 | brian | Well, I want to be able to make the phone beep loudly in some cases. |
08:11.28 | SkypeHunting | ok |
08:11.34 | TrentCreek | what is "some cases?" |
08:12.16 | SkypeHunting | Gee caller based rings |
08:12.18 | brian | I just told you, I want to be able to use the phone as an "emergency pager" |
08:12.33 | SkypeHunting | brian: this is BASIC stuff you are asking about |
08:12.38 | SkypeHunting | Yes, Yes, and yes |
08:12.44 | brian | Basically, if I'm asleep I want it to be loud and wake me up. |
08:12.44 | SkypeHunting | Rings are childs play |
08:12.58 | SkypeHunting | I cant make it any clearer |
08:13.11 | brian | There are other things I want it to do... |
08:13.15 | TrentCreek | Then why not just buy a pager for $5 and service for $20 for a year? |
08:13.26 | brian | Because I don't need a pager... |
08:13.35 | SkypeHunting | What else do you want it to do? |
08:13.44 | SkypeHunting | Be able to talk AND listen? |
08:13.50 | brian | Haha |
08:13.59 | SkypeHunting | have buttons to make tone thingys? |
08:14.03 | TrentCreek | Well you just said you wanted a pager |
08:14.36 | SkypeHunting | Oh, I know.. he wants some magical thing where when someone calls it shows it on like a TV monitor computer calculator thingo |
08:14.42 | SkypeHunting | Like an ID for the Caller |
08:14.44 | SkypeHunting | :) |
08:14.59 | SkypeHunting | Seriosuly.. what else are you looking for? |
08:15.05 | SkypeHunting | Seriously too* |
08:15.36 | SkypeHunting | Now that we're past "Phones can make different ringy dingys" |

08:15.57 | TrentCreek | he just told you |

08:17.59 | SkypeHunting | Like, the latest hit from yellowcard or Nickelback? |
08:18.04 | brian | No |
08:18.10 | brian | Like a loud annoying beep |
08:18.21 | brian | That probably isn't already in the phone's ringtones |
08:18.44 | TrentCreek | not much to choose out there...Cisco..Polycom..Avaya |
08:18.45 | SkypeHunting | Why are we still talking about rings... I'm making stinky face |
08:18.58 | SkypeHunting | I can do that with a Linksys SPA941 |

08:33.53 | TrentCreek | bad idea |

08:34.12 | TrentCreek | sucks the power from the cards to power the unit |
08:34.20 | TrentCreek | degrading your signal |
08:34.45 | brian | All of these IP phones use PoE |
08:35.30 | brian | What's a good phone that isn't an IP Phone? |
08:35.43 | TrentCreek | oh..my bad |

08:42.54 | TrentCreek | or free string & cans |
08:43.22 | SkypeHunting | Maybe you just need a louder cell phone |
08:43.42 | coppice | Its the old "I want everything I can possibly have, but I'll eventually settle for a $1 analogue phone" discourse :-) |
08:43.53 | TrentCreek | nah..stick earphone in ear,..turn up ringer loud as possible |
08:44.14 | brian | Cell phone call quality is not so good |

17:44.24 | [TK]D-Fender | glaz: Yes. This has nothing to do with what kind of phone you have |

17:59.40 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : Polycom > all |
17:59.47 | [TK]D-Fender | glaz : yes |
18:00.33 | StephenF | [TK]D-Fender: Really... That's what i've been seeing. Polycom seems to be the most popular for * implementations. I've also seen alot of Aastra |
18:00.34 | glaz | [TK]D-Fender: do you know where I can find an example of this? or do you know the extension.conf command I need to use? |
18:00.54 | [TK]D-Fender | glaz : "core show applications like queue" <- * CLI |
18:01.00 | StephenF | [TK]D-Fender: what do you like better about the polycom devices as opposed to other brands |
18:01.37 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : Aastra is "OK", but has a number of disliked characteristics which ranks them lower |
18:02.05 | glaz | [TK]D-Fender: thanks. |
18:03.27 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : Cisco has the best FEELING phone (in your hands). Polycom is a close second. Aastra's base & handset have NO weight and thigs pull & drag around a lot. Polycom's audio quality is unmatched. Polycom is much more complex to learn to configure from the start, but much more powerful once you pass the curve. |

18:04.08 | sw | [TK]D-Fender, http://pastebin.ca/1206762 is it possible to interact regarding the SIP error 402.. i'm only aware of dialstatus and hangupcause |
18:04.32 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : I've got a small pile of complaints about Aastra when comparing to Polycom. I usually rank Linksys higher than Aastra for basic use, but Aastra's BLF key handling IS awesome. |
18:05.05 | StephenF | [TK]D-Fender: interesting, thanks for the feedback. You cant really get that kind of information comparing the products online |
18:05.15 | drmessano^ | Linksys uses the same handset as Cisco |
18:05.28 | [TK]D-Fender | sw: when during the call do you actually get this message? |
18:05.32 | baliktad | have a new centOS 5.2 system with * 1.4, if I load zaptel, all sounds playback with a horrible stutter (voice and moh are fine). Any ideas? |
18:05.47 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano : not the 94X series... |
18:05.49 | StephenF | The Polycom Soundpoint IP 430 look outdated as far as styling, thats weird |
18:05.59 | StephenF | why dont they match the rest of their product lines styling? |
18:06.00 | sw | [TK]D-Fender, immediately after the dial, it hangs up on me immediately since i have no credit left |
18:06.23 | drmessano^ | I have a 7940 I use at work all day long, and it's the same as my 941 handset at home |
18:06.30 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : IP 430/50X/30X are very rarely recommended. |
18:06.37 | StephenF | ahh |
18:06.39 | StephenF | are they older? |
18:07.03 | drmessano^ | Well, the LED stripe is different |
18:07.08 | baliktad | as long as I disable zaptel module, all sounds play perfectly |
18:07.13 | StephenF | so you like the 320, 330, 501 and up then |
18:07.26 | StephenF | or sorry 550 and up |
18:07.27 | drmessano^ | I'd say they use the same mold for the plastic, same weight |
18:07.35 | [TK]D-Fender | SstephenF : Yes. IP 320/330 for base users, IP 650 for receptioninst IP 550 for bosses who want something nicer but to save a few $ on the 650 (I almost wouldn't bother, and just get them 650's) |
18:07.54 | StephenF | drmessano^: lol your right the shape i identical, its mostly the buttons that are different |
18:08.14 | sw | [TK]D-Fender, oh btw do you know what the USB plug in the back of the 650 is for ? |
18:08.52 | [TK]D-Fender | sw : Directory memory expansion, future use (possibly Wifi, etc) and so on. I think its more of a growth thing. |
18:09.40 | bkw_ | I need to open a bug on mantis.. Asterisk uses the wrong codec on a re-invite when the answer doesn't contain said codec. |
18:09.52 | bkw_ | has anyone else seen this? |
18:09.54 | StephenF | So what kind of applications/benefits can you get with the larger LCD displays like on the 550 and 650 |
18:10.25 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : The XML MicroBrowser. live feed on Idle, interactive services on demand |
18:10.50 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : and of course better UI for general call processing. More readble fonts, etc |
18:11.26 | StephenF | ahh ok, better for call processing which is why it is key for a receptionist, |
18:11.42 | glaz | [TK]D-Fender: do you know where I can find an example of a dialplan for an agent login? |
18:11.44 | StephenF | have you evern used one of the expansion modules, or something software based like HUD or HUDlite |
18:11.56 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : Actually All polycoms have the same capabilities, its a question of how many line-keys & what expansion. |
18:11.59 | drmessano^ | Dont say Hud or Hudlite in here |
18:12.08 | drmessano^ | That cause for being stabbed |
18:12.09 | StephenF | gotcha |
18:12.12 | drmessano^ | Thats* |
18:12.12 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF : Call handling is what Polycom KILLS everyone else on. |
18:12.19 | StephenF | lol, really? Is HUD no good? |
18:12.31 | [TK]D-Fender | Glaz : Go read the apps intructions & the book. |
18:12.35 | drmessano^ | Hudlite is absolute crap |
18:12.40 | [TK]D-Fender | Glaz : and go play around. |
18:12.41 | drmessano^ | Uses an IRCd for a backend |
18:12.57 | drmessano^ | Can you say "weekend hack project" |

18:41.47 | RB2 | hahah on the pots line :-P |
18:46.20 | StephenF | So do you guys do any kind of QoS, or VLANing, or seperate lans with a SMB solution with say 5 phones |
18:47.15 | StephenF | or is it pretty safe to run data and voice on one 100/mb network |
18:47.26 | StephenF | with such a small number of users |
18:48.41 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF: for general use you can just slap it all on the same network. |
18:48.53 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF: Though I typically suggest a separate physical LAN |
18:49.21 | StephenF | hmm, not like its to hard, just need another switch. |
18:49.31 | drmessano^ | You only have 5 phones |
18:49.36 | StephenF | yeah for now |
18:49.41 | drmessano^ | How many are you planning? |

18:49.47 | StephenF | 5 |
18:49.58 | StephenF | up to 10 probably |
18:50.09 | StephenF | right now there are five users |
18:50.12 | drmessano^ | I still don't see the need for a seperate lan |
18:50.20 | drmessano^ | Above that.. maybe after 15 |
18:50.49 | StephenF | yea, I think our bottleneck will be WAN bandwith before LAN |
18:50.56 | [TK]D-Fender | drmessano^: Separate LAN is what I'd recommend to leave WS's on their own and be able to gr IP 320's with no passthrough and use that $ to pay for the PoE Switch |
18:51.17 | [TK]D-Fender | StephenF: unless your WS use a LOT of BW it isn't going to matter really |
18:51.39 | StephenF | yeah they wont, just standard file sharing, and internet access |
18:51.48 | drmessano^ | I don't disagree.. I think VLAN is a bad idea if you need to segment.. If you hit 15 phones, go seperate |
18:53.01 | drmessano^ | I'm all for a seperate PoE phone switch for a good sized rollout.. but 5 to 10 phones could run with 5 to 10 WS on even a $150 24 port linksys |
18:53.23 | StephenF | ^ thats the plan at this point |
18:53.44 | StephenF | we are trying to keep initial costs low, because we are moving into a new suite. |
18:54.45 | drmessano^ | I would say though that if you plan an explansion above 10, you need to factor in the segmenting of the network.. You'll hit 14 phones, add 2 more, start seeing jitter, and wonder WTF is going on, then have no plans to buy a switch |
18:54.48 | drmessano^ | Classic |
18:55.26 | StephenF | drmessano^: I think we will cable the suite with double data ports so that we can easily segment it in the future |
18:55.39 | StephenF | just add another switch and move the patches over |
18:55.43 | drmessano^ | Good ole fashioned "Forget that right now.. Lets add this one more to get it up and running and worry about it next time" |
18:55.50 | drmessano^ | and next time never happens |
18:55.58 | drmessano^ | lol |

18:57.23 | StephenF | drmessano^: Im assuming you use * in your office too, do you do anything MSP related with your box? |
18:57.35 | StephenF | Very cool, were in San Jose, CA |
18:58.54 | drmessano^ | No, we do VERY little phone work.. I do all of our minor POTS work that we don't outsource.. Fixing a fax line here, troubleshooting a remote office with a single pots line, some company CEO's vacation home, etc |

18:59.36 | StephenF | how do you like those |
18:59.38 | RB2 | [TK]D-Fender, how do I turn on the SIP debugging? |
19:00.38 | drmessano^ | They work.. they're reliable.. I think an * box could offer a client much more functionality, but for replacing an aging PBX or their first foray from 4 line phones to a PBX, they're not bad |
19:01.19 | StephenF | nice, I've been through their sale and engineer training for the UC500 but havent ever actually deplyed on |
19:01.28 | StephenF | *deployed one |
19:01.38 | drmessano^ | It's one of those things where umm |
19:02.19 | drmessano^ | If you ask a client what they want in a PBX, it offers pretty much all of it.. They're not missing anything they KNOW of.. |
19:02.38 | StephenF | right |
19:02.43 | Qwell | ~phones |
19:02.44 | jbot | i guess phones is http://bani.anime.net/phones/. While personal preference will dictate which phone works best for you, general consensus on a rough order of quality and suggestibility is as follows: Polycom (any), Aastra 480i, Aastra 5i Series, Cisco 7940+, Linksys SPA-9XX, Snom, and finally everything else. Do not consider Grandstream phones. Ever. places like such as |
19:02.44 | Qwell | hmm |
19:02.44 | drmessano^ | Whereas with Asterisk, they could do more.. stuff they didn't know existed |
19:03.03 | drmessano^ | I guess that's why it's popular |
19:03.17 | drmessano^ | It offers the well known functions and says "Cisco" |

19:04.43 | StephenF | yup, gets the job done |

19:38.24 | RB2 | [TK]D-Fender, I'm looking for an easy way for a user to select an outbound service and/or discern which trunk the call is coming in on |
19:38.43 | [TK]D-Fender | RB2: that is an option |
19:39.07 | [TK]D-Fender | RB2: You could also prefix the callerid, and use prefixes to manually select which resource to use dialing out, etc |
19:39.16 | RB2 | Can that be done via the EndPoint Manager or do I need to manually edit the config files? |
19:39.35 | [TK]D-Fender | RB2: most of the time users want * to look at what you're dialing an choose for you based on what you deem best |
19:39.49 | [TK]D-Fender | RB2: What "endpoint manager"? Asterisk has no such thing |

19:40.17 | RB2 | [TK]D-Fender, well trixbox does. |
19:40.25 | [TK]D-Fender | RB2: Prefixes are an option, and not a necessary one, but good to have for manual control. |

23:54.45 | jaytee | i'm thinking that if app.1.toast.degree=1 gives me light toast and app.1.toast.degree=5 gives me dark toast then app.1.toast.degree=3 should give me medium toast. |
