03:59.44backlanderhello folks, i'm trying to send voicemail message to my email address, unfortunately my isp is blocking all outbound traffic on port 25. What is the easiest solution?
04:02.52backlandercontinues his search engine discovery quest ;-)
04:03.08Quadrantprobably smtp + ssl
04:03.25Quadrantor set up smtp relay to your isp's smtp server
04:04.02backlandercan that be done with asterisk alone?
04:04.11Quadrantno you need to do it in your MTA
04:04.23Quadrantsendmail, postfix, exim, etc.
04:05.06backlanderok thanks for the information Quadrant

06:13.29atanesaym153, voicemail.conf lol
06:14.39esaym153yea I noticed, but I also noticed that the voice menu in a user's voice mail box gives an option to change the password. So I am guessing that it would then be stored in the asterisk db maybe?
06:16.36atanNo. That is stored in voicemail.conf as well.
06:16.51atanWhere is voicemail.conf, /etc/asterisk/ ?
06:17.04atancd /etc/asterisk/ && ls -la | grep voicemail.conf
06:17.24atanThen ps aux | grep asterisk
06:17.36atanIt won't change anything, but post your output

06:18.26radenYOOOOOOOo
06:18.37atanesaym153, long story short I'm getting at your permissions.
06:18.53atanAsterisk needs to be able to write to the voicemail.conf file. If it's now owned by Asterisk, it can't write to it.
06:19.07atanHowever it will hold it in memory until it is able to, so the user can still login with their new password.
06:19.21atanYou are best off correcting file permissions though.

06:21.55atanraden, you haven't an idea how I can play DivX movies to video phones when they dial in? eg. Dial 123 for the movie line, then select from the IVR which movie they want? lol
06:22.02esaym153how is asterisk 1.6? I just upgrading from 1.4 and I am having some issues. Mainly music on hold dies for no reason and some ivr's also die unexpectatly. verbose and debug output shows nothing...
06:22.18esaym153atan: yea, I wasn't worried about it, just curious
06:22.21atanesaym153, I'm on 1.8.1. ^_^
06:22.41atanesaym153, not that that means anything... but I've found a few useful new additions in 1.8.1 I swear I can't live without!
06:22.50esaym153oh heck, I was thinking 1.6 was 1.8... dang it...

06:23.38esaym153how long is 1.4 supported to?

06:25.29atanesaym153, can't recall. I saw a nice table somewhere about it. I think it was like 2012 or something but I'm likely wrong.
06:25.45atanraden, does Mrs. Katty about movies over SIP? ^_^

08:47.23atanIf you couldn't get local numbers through a VOIP provider, is there any way you could buy from local cellular companies + purchase their 'unlimited inbound' service for like $10 or something, and stick the GSM card into some decive that can register as a SIP device?
08:47.48atanObviously it might not make sense to route your outbound calls over it (unless maybe all your trunks are down.. hmm!!) but to get inbound calls at least.
08:49.17laurisyes, that is possible
08:49.30laurissuch devices costs ~300gbp
08:54.09atanlauris, you're kidding me?
08:54.13atanWhat is such a device named?
08:54.20laurisno, i'm not
08:54.57laurisfor example this one: http://www.2n.cz/en/products/gsm-gateways/voip/voiceblue-next/
08:55.30atanThe SMS thing would be super cool. Hmm!
08:56.14atanWhat about something like http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.9674 ?
08:56.17laurisit has support for SMS as  well
08:56.18atanOnly $185
08:56.52laurissee photos - it's USB !
08:57.07laurisand the only supported operating system is Windows
08:57.22laurisif you need cheap solution you can build it on your own
08:57.26atanAnd this VoiceBlue isn't? How does it connect to the PBX? =)
08:57.26lauriswith some cheap cellphone
08:58.19laurisatan, voiceblue works like IP device
08:58.47laurisjust like any ATA device :)
08:59.22atanI wonder if a WRT54G3G would work O_O
08:59.42laurishave no idea
08:59.47laurisdon't think so.
09:00.49laurisatan, if your budget is that small there are no solutions :)
09:01.04laurisno *good working* solutions
09:01.11atanlauris, well for one connection $300 might be fine. But I'm thinking on a larger scale.
09:01.24laurisyou didn't mentioned that
09:01.26atanSee in my area we can't get local numbers =( but the cell providers have a ton of them
09:01.50atanThe issues is that I would _like_ to get local DIDs somehow. If I need to rob them off a GSM provider... fine! lol
09:02.07laurishow many channels do you need ?
09:02.24laurissince when GSM numbers are "local DIDs" ?
09:02.26atanTo start out I only need one or two inbound. I believe they only put one phone number on each sim right?
09:02.39atanlauris, maybe I'm thinking about this all wrong.
09:03.03atanlauris, the telco providers will sell you a SIM card for your phone with unlimited inbound for like $20/month. Seems like a steal, really.
09:03.15lauristhe same company has a hardware for large scale solutions
09:03.17atanI want to convert that cellphone sim card into a SIP connection so I can use it within Asterisk.
09:03.33laurishttp://www.2n.cz/en/products/gsm-gateways/voip/stargate-voip/
09:04.04atanThat 2N® VoiceBlue Next only supports 1 sim card right? So "1 number" per se?
09:04.11laurissee specs
09:04.19laurisas far as i remember - yes
09:04.28atanNo. of voice channels 2. Does this mean it takes two sim cards?
09:05.42laurisyes
09:06.11laurisbut if two cards are used, both of them must have an identical pin
09:06.20laurisor pin request must be disabled
09:06.32atanWoah. I do not understand. What is this PIN thing?
09:06.46atanThe code used to unlock the SIM card?
09:07.00*** join/#asterisk puzzled (~foobar@puzzled.xs4all.nl)
09:07.20laurisyes
09:07.35atanYou can disable that on most cards these days can't you? =)
09:07.46laurisif you don't understand what PIN stands for probably this solution is not suited for you :)
09:07.52laurisyes, you can
09:10.02atanTheir site lets you add to cart but does not show pricing. Hmm.
09:11.09laurissearch for their partners and ask for quote
09:12.34atanhttp://cgi.ebay.com/Improved-Fixed-Cellular-Terminal-Gateway-GSM-Dual-Band-/260707607421?pt=AU_Home_Personal_Security&hash=item3cb362637d $45? O_O
09:12.59laurisso what ?
09:13.33lauristhis one looks like a dumb FXS gateway with no SIP support
09:15.35atanHmm. My bad. Anyway, thanks for the details! I can't wait to try this out :D

11:00.20GhOnDiE?
11:00.40GhOnDiEdont have to be a light but something that i can control in hardware
11:01.05GhOnDiEor something that sets a pin on a paralell port to high for instance

11:12.56GhOnDiEwell
11:13.04GhOnDiEim a tech with a radio station
11:13.19GhOnDiEwe have a screen that indicates mic live, the time weather etc
11:13.39GhOnDiEthat is signalled by a hardware box that i made
11:13.45tzafrirGhOnDiE, did you look at the events you get?
11:13.52GhOnDiEjust some basic relay signalling into a joystick port
11:13.59*** join/#asterisk mr_ian (~mr_ian@S0106001b63f49383.du.shawcable.net)
11:17.51GhOnDiEive only looked at the detail of it on voip-info so far but its pretty confusing, im just going to look at a live call now i now how to login etc
11:18.53GhOnDiEi would just plug the hardware into the fxs port but it dont put out enough voltage to switch the relay, my other option will be to rebuild the box and use an external power supply and some transistor switching
11:21.47atanGhOnDiE, not sure if it's worth it but I think you can adjust the voicemail indicator light on most phones
11:22.03atanYou could set that line to a custom mailbox that throws a fake file in there to turn the little led on.
11:33.55*** join/#asterisk Maliuta (~scooby@kiev.lusan.id.au)
11:35.24drmessanoGhOnDiE, are you just trying to get a ring indication or are there some specific call limits you're wanting to trigger the overhead board?
11:36.03GhOnDiEwell basically i just want it to flash in time with a specific extension
11:36.32GhOnDiEeven if that extension is on the phone
11:36.39GhOnDiEkinda like a call waiting light
11:38.01GhOnDiEso call comes in asterisk answers call > light flashes and phone starts ringing > studio answers phone and light goes off. while one the call another call comes in and light will then flash until they answer it or untill all calls have been answered
11:38.24GhOnDiEi have thought maybe using an fxs port tied into a ring group
11:38.29drmessanoAll we've ever done is buy Radio Shack Fone Flasher modules, gutted them, put them on the 2 request lines, and fed them to the same relay.. if either request line had a call, the light would flash
11:38.55GhOnDiEhowever the light needs to flash when an internal call comes in too
11:39.18GhOnDiEwas that into an fxs port or direct into the main incoming line?
11:39.38GhOnDiEwe have 1 request line that fails over on busy to a sip line
11:40.43drmessanoWe've used analog lines, so right on the incoming line
11:41.36drmessanoBut of course, you could set up an FXS port to ring WITH the request line extension, and have that feed a 99 cent relay
11:43.07GhOnDiEok that was pretty much plan b
11:43.37GhOnDiEi was hoping to do it without having to modify the bow that im already using
11:43.46GhOnDiEbox*
11:43.53GhOnDiEthanks for your ideas and help
11:45.42GhOnDiEhmm the astribank does i/o
11:45.45GhOnDiEinteresting
11:45.50GhOnDiEbut a bit much for my needs

16:37.35WIMPyTake a look aroud some of the voip stores. They probably have tons to choose from.
16:39.12ghostnik11wimpy: well i mean are ATAs stand alone or will i have to connect it to a computer, b/c i want to just connect it to the router and thats it, simlar to a magic jack only thing i don't what to connect the magic to my computer i want to connect it to a router but my router doesn't have a usb port
16:39.36WIMPyThey are standalone.
16:39.45ghostnik11wimpy: thanks
16:40.30WIMPyThey only need an IP connection to some SIP account.
16:40.42WIMPyWell, it need not be sip, but usually will be.
16:42.58ghostnik11wimpy: well i have two sip accounts one with ekiga and the other with iptel but the thing is my mom wants to reduce her phone bill i told her i might be able to make it possible for her so now i am researching how i will accomplish this feat as i think i can just have my sip account which is linked to google voice place the calls outgoing and in turn have google voice route the call to my sip address
16:44.20WIMPyNo idea about the google stuff, but if you have SIP accounts that's already the big portion of the deal done.

16:46.10atanghostnik11, but fun to setup for personal use nevertheless! :P
16:46.29atanghostnik11, I hear people were connecting up via jabber to make voice calls, but they blocked their ips after awhile.
16:47.07atanghostnik11, you might also want an adapter with FXO+FXS if you plan for her to use her current lines
16:47.42ghostnik11atan: wait basically they found a way to figure out how to make free calls, and google blocked them or there phone companies
16:47.50atanWIMPy, any idea inside AGI how many times a while() loop runs? Like, err, if I'm sitting in a while() loop waiting for user input I want to know how many times the loop runs. If it's once per second, great, 50 timse per second... I might not want to query a db each time :P
16:48.07atanghostnik11, I do believe Google would have been the one causing the blockage
16:48.24atanghostnik11, just don't route tons of calls over it or expect your account to get shut down :P lol =)
16:48.32ghostnik11atan: i thought google was suppose to be transparent
16:49.14WIMPyatan: Just count them.
16:49.40atan"transparent" ? They've offered a trunk for calls... it costs them money, and they aren't going to let the world rape them for free phone service ;)
16:49.45ghostnik11atan: well i make free calls through google voice for both outgoing and incoming but i don't make 1000's of calls like i am a company just for personal use, i don't even think i use 200 mins a month b/c i usually text a lot through google voice and google talk
16:50.10atanghostnik11, then I suspect you will be just fine =)
16:51.36ghostnik11atan: but that might be a problem for my mom, who uses the home phone quite a bit, but i don't think she goes over a 1000 mins a month and if i use pbxes.org they allow up to 2000 per month for free users
16:53.55ghostnik11atan: oh and about google trunk that they let people talk on for free i think some how google is getting paid by someone that public doesn't know are is in fine print b/c they basically let everyone in the usa and canada i think make free calls and for more advanced people around the world who know how to get around google also them that can make free calls through google voice on the low without google knowing
16:54.24atanThe hell. What is this 2000 minutes free thing. 2000 minutes to where?

17:28.21WIMPyWell, most ppl here don;t know about voip, either. They use it without knowing.
17:29.28ghostnik11wimpy: i don't get it, there in asterisk chat channel who is leading the charge in voip and don't know about it but are using asterisk servers to make free phone calling
17:29.41p3nguinLike Magic Jack and Vonage.  They don't know it's VoIP... they just know it as being Magic Jack or Vonage.
17:30.37ghostnik11p3nguin: but why wouldn't they go and look up what they buy b/4 they get it and see its voip and that its an option in terms of phone service vs. the big phone companies

17:47.47WIMPyalways gets a crisis when I see USB headphones advertised as VOIP phones.
17:48.10WIMPyThe consumer watchdogs should really do something about such shit.

19:55.27WIMPyChilibeta: ^^
19:56.24ChilibetaAllright. I am investigating if a (visual) voicemail extension is feasible for a one person project, timespan 6 months.
19:56.42WIMPyWhat's that supposed to be?
19:57.10ChilibetaWell. Afaik asterisk doesnt support that right now. Perhaps you have heard about the iphone visual voicemail thingy.
19:57.25WIMPynope
19:57.28ChilibetaBrowsing, editing, answering machine/voicemail messages.
19:58.02esaym153WIMPy: well I just cheated and looked at how the asterisk.deb does it on debian...
19:58.12WIMPyI think I have heard about web based VM GUIs.
19:58.13ChilibetaEditing means deleting, all in a visual fassion from a smartphone client.
19:59.34WIMPyhas thought baout doing something for his phones minibrowser, but didn't bother so far.
19:59.34ChilibetaWhat I have found is a recommendation ( not a real standard ) by omtp and they use a modified imap protokoll to access voicemail content.
20:00.07WIMPyYou can use imap storage for Asterisk Voicemail.

20:01.05ChilibetaWell, perhaps you can outline that a bit more. Asterisk already has some way to access imap?
20:01.29WIMPySorry, I never tried that, but it is possible.
20:01.51ChilibetaAllright, great info to dig into and see what is already possible.
20:02.41ChilibetaHow I understand my project/topic so far is, the other way arround. Not asterisk storing voicemails in imap, rather adding
20:03.39WIMPyWhtever it is, I'd guess it should be pretty straightforward.
20:03.44Chilibetaan imap layer (as plugin/whatever) to asterisk, so that it is possible to access all the voicemail storage via imap.
20:04.46WIMPyIt's more of an storage backend for Voicemail.
20:05.22WIMPyBut I haven't taken a look at what it is.
20:06.04ChilibetaHmm... do you know under which name this extensions is provided or is imap the preferred storage method for, e.g. voicemail
20:06.29WIMPyIt's one of the storage backend options.
20:06.50ChilibetaI see. I will have a look into the docs to see what is there.
20:07.12timholum1Chilibeta: one other thing you might be able to do is set up an external email account ( gmail , zimbra ext... ) and then just put everyone's email in to that account ( in voicemail.conf ) then you would have an imap storage of all voicemail's
20:07.34timholum1I just got in the room thought so this might have already been discused, if so sorry
20:08.33ChilibetaNo, its fine. You just mentioned what we are thinking of that this exists.
20:09.20WIMPyThat's not the same thing.
20:11.51*** join/#asterisk fofware (~Fabian@host120.190-136-164.telecom.net.ar)
20:12.07ChilibetaI am thinking of something more specialized for voicemails accessed via a nice smartphone app.
20:12.54ChilibetaSo that it would be possible to browse/delete/listen them.
20:13.02timholum1you could use a mysql storage backend and just use a web interface
20:14.02timholum1it would involve some development ( proabably php,python or perl knolage as well )
20:14.14ChilibetaWell, yes.
20:14.46ChilibetaBut the whole idea is, as the omtp recommendation paper for visual voicemail is backed by numerous telcos.
20:15.24ChilibetaSo it could be possible, if a client impl is there, this impl can access more than one voicemail service.
20:16.11WIMPyIf you;ve got the specs that shouldn't be hard to do.
20:16.56ChilibetaYes, thats what I am thinking. Mostly a matter of how much effort.
20:18.03ChilibetaWhat there is in the android market, is an app to access asteriskv(oice)m(ail) via a recording interface. It seems a bit basic from the screen shots, but its there.
20:18.40ChilibetaI have searched quickly the asterisk docs, but havent found something like a recording interface.
20:18.50ChilibetaDoes someone know what that could be?
20:19.05WIMPyProbably because there's no need.
20:19.27WIMPyYou would be accessing the backends directly, I guess.
20:19.52timholum1or maybe use ami?
20:20.06ChilibetaWhat is ami? Never heard of that.
20:20.10WIMPyDoes it have anything about VM?
20:20.18WIMPyThe Asterisk Management Interface.
20:21.25WIMPyThe only possible catch I see is that you might sabotage the event driven MWI. But I think you can still configure it to the old way.
20:21.35timholum1it basicly is an interface that you can do just about anything in asterisk through, originate calls, transfer calls ext......
20:21.55timholum1one sec let me check
20:22.31timholum1http://www.the-asterisk-book.com/unstable/asterisk-manager-api.html
20:22.48timholum1it at least shows how to check the number of voicemails
20:23.22timholum1if I where you I would enable ajam on your server ( essencialy a web interface to ami ) and play arround in there
20:23.29WIMPyYes, but I don't see the neccessity to ask.
20:24.18ChilibetaAllright, I see that. Nice, this AMI.
20:25.15timholum1well I am going to go and play some call of duty, talk to you guys latter
20:26.47ChilibetaPerhaps its a good idea to look through the asterisk-book and to see what is already there.
20:27.06WIMPyThat sounds like a plan.
20:27.44ChilibetaAnd afterwards deciding on the if and how.

22:12.37vasanthv161I am an asterisk newbie. I've installed asterisk on ubuntu and now I am looking to try out some basic stuff. Any pointers on where to get started? I've read some documentation so far. But still not quite clear on where to start.
22:12.45vasanthv161https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Basic+PBX+Functionality is something I am looking at right now
22:18.16vasanthv161anyone ?
22:20.23tzafrirvasanthv161, what version (asterisk, ubuntu)?
22:21.07tzafrirwhat phone(s) do you have? Any hardware phone? Or just the sound card and a SIP client?
22:21.42vasanthv161ubuntu 10.10 server, Asterisk 1.6.2.7-1ubuntu1
22:22.26vasanthv161I am not quite sure what my goal is, but something like connecting google talk / skype with asterisk.
22:23.40vasanthv161I dont have any hardware phone yet. What is a SIP client? Is that a separate software? Or is Google Talk application a SIP client?
22:23.48tzafrirskype would generally require jumping over some hoops and paying some money
22:24.03tzafrirgoogle talk: did you check the documentation?
22:24.07vasanthv161tzafrir: I can come to skype later. Maybe google talk first.
22:24.40tzafrirA SIP client is a software phone. On Ubuntu this is mainly Ekiga and Twinkle
22:24.46vasanthv161tzafrir: I saw some documentation. But all the terminology there didnt make much sense to me. Is a 'soft phone' the same as a SIP client?
22:25.19tzafriryup. It is a soft[ware-implemented] [(normally SIP)] phone
22:25.53vasanthv161So, in the link I provided above, the documentation connects two SIP phones. I can use two Google Talk sessions to accomplish the same?
22:26.04vasanthv161(or maybe use the ones in Ubuntu that you mentioned)
22:26.19tzafrirI would suggest that you start with a local SIP phone.
22:26.35tzafrirIt's easier to debug when you don't have to depend on a remote provider
22:27.13vasanthv161What is a local SIP phone? :-s
22:27.22vasanthv161You mean a hardware sip phone?
22:28.09tzafrirfor gtalk you should probably use chan_gtalk (or is it chan_jingle?)
22:28.34tzafrira local SIP phone: a software like Ekiga and Twinkle :-)
22:29.03vasanthv161ah, ok. Let me look into that then. I will set up two softphones, and see if I can get them to work first.
22:29.18vasanthv161Are you, by chance, familiar with tomato and running tomato on a router?
22:30.38vasanthv161My eventual goal is to run asterisk on a router, so that i dont necessarily have to have my desktop running, for telephony.
22:31.39tzafrirHow much memory and "disk" space do you have on your router?
22:32.14tzafrirIIRC openembedded have a package of Asterisk, but I'm not sure how up-to-date it is
22:32.27vasanthv161I am not there yet. But I think I read somewhere that if I get a router that has a USB port, I can have a USB flash drive to run asterisk
22:32.34tzafrirIf you run debian/Gentoo/whatever you'll probably be able to use the existing package
22:33.20vasanthv161Anyway, that is a long way away from where I am now. Let me get some basic stuff working first. Thanks for the pointers.
22:34.12tzafrirFor starters, stick with the default dialplan (maybe unload pbx_ael2.so and pbx_lua.so to get something cleaner)
22:34.40tzafrirSee the sample sip.conf to see how to configure a SIP phone
22:35.05tzafriralso: copies of sample config files are under /usr/share/doc/asterisk-doc/examples/configs
22:35.14vasanthv161Yeah. There are some seemingly good instructions in the asterisk docs. I was kinda stuck at using a softphone. Now I know where to look.

23:14.14tashI'm currently creating files with the swift command, as .wav's...and converting them to gsm with "sox file.wav -r 8000 file.gsm" and putting the .gsm in my sound file directory. It doesn't sound like the best quality though.
23:25.18WIMPyUse the same format as you use for calls.
23:26.02WIMPyIf you use multiple or are unsure, use wav with  channel of 16 bit slin, 8k samples/s.
