05:32.56Alton35ok, goofy question time, I am trying to telnet to asterisk on port 5038 and can't get into the account I defined in manager.conf,
05:32.57Nuggettelnet is eeeeeeevil!
05:33.13Alton35I keep restarting asterisk, assuming it's picking up the changes in manager.conf
05:33.28Alton35Still can't get logged in any which way.  Where to look?
05:34.05Alton35The log files and console are unhelpful.
05:34.33ChannelZare you telnetting from the same box?  Is that port blocked?  Is it listening on the interface you think it is?
05:34.54Alton35yeah, it answers, just keeps saying:
05:35.09Alton35Response: Error

05:36.52Alton35I tried taking out the spaces in the secret= line,  but this is a faithful copy of the [mark] section above.
05:36.55ChannelZso you're doing Action: login
05:37.01ChannelZUsername: callouts
05:37.08Alton35right
05:37.08ChannelZSecret: secretx11
05:37.15Alton35right, then 2 returns
05:37.49Alton35I assume there's not where this manager.conf file is commented out or anything, just can't see the problem.
05:39.18ChannelZ'manager show users' shows your 'callout' user?
05:39.45Alton35callouts, yes
05:39.55Alton35never used that before, but yup, it's there
05:40.26Alton35verbose 10 and debug 10 don't show anything more than the failure to authenticate thing
05:40.29ChannelZwell then all I can guess is either you have a hidden character or something somewhere or you're not typing the auth right
05:41.09ChannelZPerhaps your allow= line is what is holding it up, because you're not really coming *from* localhost
05:41.27Alton35let me see
05:41.38Alton35I guess I could always use the external ip, it's firewalled
05:42.24Alton35well, you'll be amused to hear,
05:43.18Alton35after I moved the ;deny= and ;read= commented-out lines out of the middle of the 4 lines I left, now it seems to work
05:43.18Alton35yikes
05:43.18Alton35oh well, you have helped
05:43.18Alton35let me try to place a call, I'm sure more questions will ensue
05:45.25Alton35I did spend more than 1/2 hour trying this every which way, so you really did help.

06:11.34EmleyMoorI have now got my N97 connected directly to Asterisk, but have a couple of odd things going on:
06:12.28EmleyMoor(a) the phone is taking a long time to start ringing when a call is sent to it - 15 or so seconds after the other phones start ringing
06:13.03EmleyMoor(b) the phone is sending back many 415 (Unsupported Media Type) messages
06:13.17EmleyMoorIs there anything I can do about either of those?
06:14.08*** join/#asterisk GameGamer43|Mac (~GameGamer@CPE-65-27-76-78.new.res.rr.com)
06:15.59ChannelZso you're dialing it and some other phones with &  ?
06:16.13EmleyMoorYes
06:16.48ChannelZhmm well the delay sounds like the phone just isn't paying attention
06:17.02EmleyMoorEven when dialed on its own there is about 15 seconds between the "Called" in asterisk and the phone ringing
06:17.27ChannelZHave you turned on sip debug?  Is it retransmitting the invite several times?
06:17.54EmleyMoorI'll see... hold on
06:20.20EmleyMoorLooks as though it's not
06:20.40ChannelZSo it's sending an invite and then getting a response?
06:21.08EmleyMoorYes
06:21.18ChannelZAnd what's the response?
06:22.14EmleyMoor180 Ringing
06:22.28ChannelZbut it doesn't
06:22.52ChannelZWell that would be something with the device then, not asterisk.
06:23.25EmleyMoorSo, the best thing to do would be to take account of it
06:24.40EmleyMoorRight - no great problem. What about the 415s?
06:25.00ChannelZ?
06:26.40EmleyMoorThe phone seems to be responding 415 Unsupported Media Type in response to asterisk's NOTIFY
06:28.54ChannelZI meant I don't know.  seems like an odd response to notify (which is usually just Asterisk giving message waiting indication)
06:29.20EmleyMoorHmmm... OK, not a great problem either

07:39.18Alton35look at the options for the dial() statement
07:39.25Alton35L I think
07:46.02hipitihopwould it be possible to setup time quotas to particular number
07:47.45ChannelZI've never used them but 1.6.2 anyway has a whole shitload of options for limits and playing sounds to both sides
07:49.41ChannelZgamedna: sip unregister  to make Asterisk forget about a peer, but it's up to that peer to re-register.
07:50.56gamednacan i sip unregister and then do a restart?
07:51.13gamednahmm
07:51.19gamednanot sure if that will work
07:51.38ChannelZyes but that still won't necessarily force a peer to re-register
07:51.49gamednaoutbound call to a peer wont work either.
07:52.39ChannelZregistration is sort of a one-way thing.. the whole point is so that a remote peer can inform Asterisk (or a proxy, etc) what IP it's at.
07:52.55gamednatrue
07:53.22gamednaprobably need to setup a test
07:53.31gamednaand see what happens when i drop the peer
07:53.58ChannelZThe peer generally has registration timeouts whereby it will re-register every so often
07:54.46gamednaright, but for some reason this one peer is not disconnecting
07:55.01gamednathe registration stays, and for some reason its not routing calls propertly
07:55.20gamednaits almost like its stale
07:55.59gamednaprobably buggy device
07:57.50hipitihopanyone here using FreePBX on ubuntu 9.04 and asterisk ?
07:58.21fenrusi would recommend #freepbx
07:59.33ChannelZIf the device is changing its IP or something but not re-registering, that's the device's fault
07:59.47hipitihopfenrus, what distro are you using ?
07:59.53gamednathought that was the case, but the device is behind NAT and Static
08:00.03gamednaand there are other devices that are there too
08:00.12ChannelZ'unregistering' it on the Asterisk side isn't going to cause anything interesting to happen besides for Asterisk to forget its last known IP
08:00.13gamednanone of the other devices have a problem
08:00.43ChannelZSo what happens, does it just become unreachable and/or its unable to make calls to asterisk?
08:00.50gamednaboth
08:00.53gamednacant recieve or send
08:01.13gamednabut it works whenever i powercycle the phone or restart asterisk

08:05.14ChannelZit probably is globally if you're getting 'OK (xx ms)' for it
08:05.37ChannelZHow long does it take before it becomes unreachable if you do nothing (make no calls, send it no calls)
08:06.00gamednaaccording to sip show settings..   Qualify:                0

08:06.29gamednathat i am not sure of
08:06.58gamednai thought it would go down overnight
08:07.06gamednabut it does sometimes and other times it does not
08:07.14gamednawill lock up during the day

08:08.29ChannelZin the same location?
08:08.40gamednayes
08:08.59ChannelZAre they using different ports then?
08:09.07gamednayes.
08:09.37gamednaswapped netowrk wires, factory reset, firmware reinstalled, changed configs
08:09.56gamednaeven swapped ports on the network switch
08:10.02gamednav. kooky
08:11.44gamednasounds like its a bug w/ the phone
08:15.29ChannelZyah dunno
08:17.31gamednaChannelZ:  thanks for the help.
08:18.40ChannelZor lack thereof :)
08:19.27gamednaChannelZ: qualify was a big hint as to what was probably going on
08:20.11gamednawill try qualify=yes on monday
08:20.14ChannelZnot if all the other phones are the same, behind the same firewall, and setup the same
08:20.37gamednaChannelZ: supposedly the same...
08:20.47gamednacould be a id10T error
08:20.50gamednaon my part
08:20.51ChannelZDo a 'sip show peer xxxx' and see what the Qualify Freq shows up as
08:22.08gamednadont see it
08:22.20ChannelZwhat version of asterisk?
08:22.27gamedna1.4
08:22.45ChannelZah.  Maybe that's a 1.6 thing (or it's called something different in 1.4)
08:22.57gamednaim checking on a 1.6
08:22.58gamednaright now
08:23.07ChannelZits near the end, like 6th from last
08:23.12gamednashows up on my 1.6
08:23.12gamednaQualify Freq : 60000 ms
08:23.15gamednabut not the 1.4
08:23.21gamednahmm, maybe upgrade?
08:23.22gamednahaha
08:23.35ChannelZthat's default.
08:23.38gamednabeen working rock solid for over a year
08:23.43gamednano config changes
08:23.47ChannelZIt's not that 1.4 doesn't have qualify, just that it doesn't show those settings that way
08:24.02gamednayea, aware of that...
08:24.32gamednaon both of my servers quality=0
08:24.34ChannelZYou might set it's qualify down a little, to like 30000 to make sure the NAT firewall isn't losing the port mapping
08:24.36gamednaaccording to sip show settings
08:24.52gamednacould be my isp
08:24.53gamednahmm
08:25.03gamednai remember reading that some ISPs are blocking voip
08:25.17gamednawonder if its a default 5060 port
08:25.42ChannelZBut I'd think that'd be a flat out block, not 'randomly dropping packets on port 5060'
08:26.18gamednaport is 5062

08:29.05FILLVAIO3Hi Guys! Is there possible to limit 1-incoming and 2-outgoing call by each SIP account (type=friend) in Asterisk 1.6.2.9-1?
08:29.51gamednaChannelZ: while i do love diving into asterisk trying to figure this out, i think its probably best if i just #1 swap the phone, #2 upgrade asterisk to the latest 1.6, and #3 make sure the firewall is playing nice
08:34.50gamednaChannelZ: w/ all that said, it still bugs the crap out of me that i cant really narrow it down
08:35.19Alton35randomly dropping UDP packets is a symptom of an overloaded/unreliably connection....
08:35.38Alton35if you're sure it's that, then maybe something's not right, even a bad cable, hard to say.
08:36.41Alton35or gotta be a way to test the same thing on another connection
08:36.46gamednaAlton35: firewall load is around 0.04   asterisk box load is around 0.02
08:36.58gamednaAlton35: will test it when i get the phone back
08:37.21Alton35I understand.  These boxes can push quite a bit of traffic.  But cables/etc can make some very weird errors.

08:38.35gamednaits a good suggestion... many overlook that... had them swap phone cable, network port, wall port..
08:38.52gamednawe replaced the cables on the firewall
08:39.04gamednaall are good cat 5e wires
08:39.21Alton35g729 or something more demanding of bandwidth?
08:39.36gamednaG711
08:39.47gamednabut their internet upload is 5Mit
08:39.58Alton35could be something to test anyway if it's not too difficult for you
08:40.08gamednaswitch to G729?
08:40.25Alton35just to see what happens
08:40.27gamednai can try... i have a few extra G729 licenses laying around
08:40.45Alton35although many people just stick with it exclusively, depends on what you are doin
08:40.46Alton35doing
08:41.10gamednaim thinking of switching to G729 exclusively, but i like G711 for the audio quality...
08:41.11Alton35I try to do that, even record all files in g729, I guess it's as good a standard as any
08:41.59Alton35a friend of mine is telling me how he doesn't have any standard on his 2 systems and several phones... but strangely enough has troubles with any recorded audio!  so some sort of standard might help him.
08:42.04gamednado you license the codec's on your * box? or are you just using passthrough?
08:42.24Alton35I have 10 licenses from the past.
08:42.38Alton35I think you need them to record and play back files.
08:43.08gamednai believe you are correct
08:43.42gamednaare there G729 processor cards?
08:44.12Alton35golly, how many connections are you thinking of?  and unless you are transcoding I don't think you need anything like that.
08:44.25gamednathat is for another setu
08:44.34gamednaand yes for transcoding
08:44.41Alton35aha
08:44.55Alton35hmm, don't know, kinda avoided that problem
08:45.08Alton35you might be able to do it anyway, or dedicate a machine or two to it.
08:45.24gamednaone option is to gang all my licenses on two machines
08:45.27gamednaand just have them transcode
08:45.33gamednaand the other just passthrough

08:51.44honreeie do away with the sipura's dial plan strings and just pass all dialled digits immediately to asterisk
08:52.03honreeasterisk is the place where that sort of thing should be done, not in each sip fone

08:55.11ChannelZBy what mechanism in asterisk does this happen?
08:55.29WIMPyalso uses it on the Snom. But that's really a rare thing for sip devices.
08:56.26honreeis that because sip is usually point to point?
08:56.44WIMPyThe Snom just sends an invite for the complete number after each digit, ignoring errors that indicate an incomplete number.
08:57.05WIMPyNo it's because SIP dosn't really support that.

08:59.11ChannelZAnyways as far as a phone dialplan goes I've only got a few broad patterns in there, it's not a 'duplicate' of the asterisk dialplan by any means
08:59.57honreehow does that work in view of being able to dial via a pstn gateway?
09:00.26fenrushonree, i just thought of that too
09:00.26WIMPyAnd acutually getting Asterisk to find the end of overlap dialling can be quite challanging as well and in fact prohibits the use of some features.
09:00.30fenrusmust be really shitty ;)
09:00.51honreethe work around is u can press # when youve finished dialling
09:01.05honreethat comes under your really shitty clause imo :)
09:01.07ChannelZPSTN numbers have a pattern
09:01.07WIMPy(That does not include the emulated sip way)
09:01.39fenrusa number in sweden can vary from three to 16 digits i think
09:01.45WIMPyChannelZ: Only in some parts of the world. So no.
09:01.49honreesimilarly in the uk
09:02.08beardyMy phones have a timeout (default 5 seconds) after which all pressed digits are sent.
09:02.09honreenew numbering schemes mixed with older ones
09:02.11fenrusbut sure, "most" works..
09:02.14WIMPyAnd in 'evil Germany' :-)
09:02.29ChannelZSo you dial a certain number, and then just sit there and wait for the phone company to 'time out' before it puts the call through?
09:02.31fenrusbeardy, that's how my 7960's work too
09:02.41honreeno
09:02.41beardyfenrus: (7940s here)
09:02.52WIMPyChannelZ: No. They know when the number is complete.
09:03.02honreethe phone company's exchanges know how to match
09:03.03ChannelZLike I said.  They have a pattern.
09:03.07fenrusChannelZ, the phone company does not "time out", they have intelligent number analysis in their switches here in sweden ;
09:03.10fenrus;)
09:03.14honreethey have a record of all possible 'dial plans'
09:03.28WIMPyi.e. you type your number and expect to hear a ringing tone immediately after you pressed the last digit.
09:03.34honreeaye
09:03.37honreeand that works
09:03.39fenrustheir "pattern" often exist of hundreds of thousands of numbers
09:03.43honreeand asterisk is the place for it
09:03.51honreeas that is the equiv of the central office
09:03.58honreecertainly not your telephone
09:03.59fenrusbecause you can move a number betwen different telcos here ;)
09:04.00honree:)
09:04.07WIMPyThere is no patterns. It's just the list of all numbers in use.
09:04.15beardyWell, they just read the number, switch if necessary after the "area code", use the rest for customer extension. If the number doesn't match, due to either length or just not used, the proper tones are played back.
09:04.19fenrusbut hey, i dont need to do that, because i dont have crap-phones ;)
09:05.04honreegrandstreams have a simple drop down box in their config for it
09:05.09honreeturn the feature on/off
09:05.12honreeend of story
09:05.24honreeits not rocket science
09:05.36fenruscase closed, problem solved.
09:05.40WIMPyBut I know that this functionality is no very well known in this cimmunity, what unfortunaletly shows in what you can achieve with Asterisk.
09:05.52honreeer so anyway the answer to my question appears to be my sipura adapter is rubbish
09:05.58honreein this regard at least...
09:06.17fenrushonree, have you checked all configuration options
09:06.22honreeyea :(
09:06.26fenrusthat's a shame
09:06.27beardyIn general people should drop old expectencies of analog phones.. more than once I've seen people wanting to dumb down SIP to act stupid, aka like an analog phone.
09:06.42honreei was hoping that some sort of special dial plan syntax existed
09:06.45WIMPyfenrus: No not the end of the story. Your dialplan will come with some challanges as well.
09:07.24WIMPybeardy: Yes, but not for the worse.
09:07.25fenrusWIMPy, my dialplan is quite easy since i only have one telco, and connected to it via sip.. :)
09:07.34fenruss/telco/provider
09:07.46honreeeardy im not advocting removing the dial plan capability from sip fones.
09:07.59fenrusbut the company i work for has 8 nokia AXE's and a couple of ericsson ones ;)
09:08.02honreeim merely saying that /as an option/ it would be nice to be able to bypass it
09:08.04WIMPyI have some hard time getting dialling to local exensions right.
09:08.18fenrusWIMPy, oh, okay - what seems to be the problem? :)
09:08.41WIMPyThe part where you want to be able to dial them just using the local number as well as with their areacode added.
09:09.09WIMPyhonree: I'm absolutely on your side.
09:09.22fenrushonree, did you check for firmware upgrades?
09:09.38beardy(I just made a comment, not on anyone's side. ;) )
09:09.40WIMPyThe only way I found that to work is to add the extensions twice.
09:10.02WIMPyWell, actually 4 times, as I want it with international prefix as well.
09:10.03ChannelZyou could do something gay like make a single digit in your phone's dialplan to start the call.. that hits a matching extension in your * dialplan which then just answers, does a WaitExten and the rest gets handled by your asterisk dialplan
09:10.21WIMPyBut that only works as long as all numbers are from the same area code.
09:11.07WIMPyChannelZ: Yes, but I guess it would fail if you dial from phonebook.
09:11.51fenrusWIMPy, you want to force a call going to a local phone to not leave your pbx, turn at your provider and get back to your pbx and the correct phone ?
09:12.09WIMPySure!
09:12.36beardyI guess you could match on areacode+yourprefix+$lengthofextension with two IF:s, letting through lower than, and higher than, your first and last extension?
09:12.38WIMPyIn fact it wouldn't work otherwise as not all numbers are hosted at the same provider.
09:13.25fenrussounds like that it'll be quite a long dialplan then ;)
09:13.27beardy(That's for a series that is..)
09:14.07WIMPybeardy: No, a) you that length aproach wouldn' work here and b) you'd need to match before you know the number is complete which breaks dialling.
09:14.31WIMPy-you
09:18.22WIMPyActually it even prevents me from having a default route.
09:18.22fenrusof course you're using ranges in the dialplan, but if there's alot of them it'll be some config to mess around with..
09:18.23ChannelZHow come the Sipura phones don't have a config option for reading minds so it knows what number I intended to dial and when I'm done?

09:18.23honreeit doesnt need to read minds or anything like that

09:20.13WIMPyDon't use extensions that clash with real numbers.
09:20.35ChannelZYes but "dial as you go" via SIP is going to hit extension 303 as soon as you type the second 3, even though you intended to continue on with 5551212
09:20.55honreesame if u do it in the sip fone
09:21.17WIMPyCorrect?
09:21.20beardyChannelZ: It's routed according to best match. If you have an "5 digits+whatever" extension, that is used.
09:21.25beardyChannelZ: Yes, it would.
09:22.01ChannelZexcept you can put a pause in the phone's dialplan so it would only accept 303 if you stopped dialing more digits for a second etc.  I don't think you can do the same in the * dialplan
09:22.14honreeif u have some sort of 'escape' like pressing pound before the special range then u dont need to do that in the sip fone dial plan u cn do it in asterisk
09:22.36beardyChannelZ: But it would be a bad design choice to have local extensions matching known areacodes or extensions.
09:22.47honreeok well that sounds a bit odd way of having your dialling
09:24.19honreesigh oh well i spose ill have to just do it the long way :)
09:25.04ChannelZOdd is a localized point of view
09:25.12honree:)
09:25.30honreewell odd as in i dont know of any other system tht does that

09:27.49honreewhat u said
09:28.23honreehas a system where there are two (or more) overlapping number ranges, differentiated by an arcane system of the caller pausing during their dialling
09:32.48ChannelZit was just an example;  I just use a steering digit which is perhaps old-fashioned, but keeps me from having to write some crazy-ass dialplan, regardless whether it's in the phone or in asterisk
09:33.02ChannelZIt also helps that in the US our phone numbers are a consistent length
09:33.31honreeheh ok
09:38.40WIMPyYes some sort of prefix IS a good idea.
09:39.16WIMPyI however always preferred the idea of using * as an internal prefix.
09:40.01ChannelZYeah I should have put all my local extensions as *xxx or #xxx
09:41.33WIMPyBut that clashes with standard service codes. And as we can't use normal facility based signalling with Asterisk, they seem like a good idea.
09:41.41WIMPy(read workaround)
09:44.33WIMPyMaybe if it becomes a good idea to swaitch to dahdi for bri in the (hopefully) near future, a patch for facilities might be possible.
09:44.55honreeit might depend on the location your in in the uk, but i /think/ i can get away with overloading local 2xx and 3xx numbers
09:45.09WIMPyBut it might be a good idea to add screening capabilities first.

09:45.41WIMPyThe word "think" makes me shiver.
09:46.19WIMPyReminds me of adapters that used 999 as configuration prefix as someone *thought* that was safe.
09:46.55honreeheh
09:47.00honreelol
09:47.41honreewell if the emergency number changes to 2xx something, ill be knackered
09:48.02honree999 i always thought was a poor choice of number
09:48.15honreeespecially as it came from rotary dial days
09:48.36honreesomeone must have thought mmm let's see what 3 digit number takes longest to dial in an emergency...
09:48.54honree911 is better
09:49.08honreemaybe they thought 999 was easier to remember
09:50.33WIMPyOh right, 999 is even more interesting in the uk. Here they are just ordinary local numbers.
09:50.51honree999 is a local number?
09:50.55honreelocal police station...
09:51.48WIMPyNo, ordinary subscriber numbers. Probably longer than 3 digits.
09:52.14honreei think 911 and 112 work here also
09:52.29honreealtho not widely publicised - so as not to confuse people i spose
09:52.43WIMPyBut I imagine those adapters would have been interestin in th uk. If you have an emergency it's surely interesting to find out that you actually can't call for help.
09:52.50honreeyet at the same tme allow foreign visitors to use the number theyre familiar with
09:53.17honreeyes and have to log into asterisk to edit the dial plan while your house is burning down
09:53.35honreethen find that you forgot to edit the dial plan on your sipura...
09:53.43WIMPyWith a black box there is no logging in and editing anything.
09:53.55WIMPyErrr. Yes.
09:54.07WIMPyhates dialplans in terminals!
09:54.09EmleyMoorhonree: 999 was invented because it was easier to modify the old payphones to dial it free than any other reasonable number
09:54.19WIMPyThat's definitely not where they belong.
09:55.05honreepayphone?
09:55.37honreei shouldnt think the mod was done in the payphine itself but i take your point
09:55.53WIMPyOoooh. That reminds me of those really old payphones that had an extra emergency box with a lever to turn left or right for either police or the fire brigade.
09:56.14honreehaha yea
09:56.31EmleyMoorhonree: It was - it was a short circuit on the dial - originally released by inserting minimum fee
09:57.02honreeinteresting
09:57.03EmleyMoorIt was on 1-9 until 999 came in, then they modified the dial so that 9 would dial as well
09:57.19honreeahh
09:57.22honreecunning
09:57.39honreeso u could actually dial 9 or 99 or 9999 for free too...
09:57.41WIMPyHa, found one on wiki. A newer type of payphone but with the emergency box still in place.

10:35.38honree(albeit not turned on)
10:35.45EmleyMoorIt gets to be a pig though - we get a lot of calls from "that can't be right" caller IDs

16:38.34Alton35Well, I'm back with the same question, how to originate calls and get back a dialstatus.
16:38.51Alton35I tried AMI and it makes calls but really no different than creating a call file as far as I can see.
16:39.42[TK]D-FenderAlton35: Get back where/how?
16:40.33Alton35I guess you tell me.  I haven't found any way to get it back,
16:41.12Alton35<PROTECTED>
16:42.09[TK]D-FenderAlton35: Then dial a LOCAL channel and have that do the outbound attempt AND cleanup for you.
16:42.59Alton35I thought of that.  In that case I'd be inside of my AGI and be quite happy,

16:43.37[TK]D-FenderAlton35: Local/extension@context/n

16:45.44Alton35good, I knew I just had to keep asking.  :-)  let me read a bit, and I appreciate it.
17:07.33p3nguinIs /n an undocumented option for chan_local?  I've never been able to find out anything about it.

17:08.01leifmadsenp3nguin: then you didn't read doc/tex/localchannel.tex
17:08.44p3nguinI admit I don't know my way around the included documentation.
17:09.11[TK]D-Fenderp3nguin: No, there are comments about it... normally when a local channel calls out and gets bridged, the local channel is dissolved, and the outer channels get bridged directly.  This means post-call processes, etc usually get cut off.  "/n" forces chan_local to always sit as the intermediary
17:10.26leifmadseni.e. /n makes chan_local act as a "real channel" which lives and is not processed out of the call
17:12.06[TK]D-Fenderp3nguin: It is a great way around all sorts of things users find problematic.
17:13.34p3nguinI use local channels for several things, but I've never used /n on any of them.  I've never known why to or when to.

17:16.11leifmadsenit's a very good read for people who use chan_local
17:16.12p3nguinWould it be fair to say that the /n should be used any time you dial a local channel and want to have additional priorities for the exten after the Dial command?
17:16.14leifmadsen(or those who want to)
