I have two questions regarding asterisk. 1.Is it possible to loop through a folder and play all files? 2.Is it possible to get file attributes of .wav file in asterisk e.g. created date time, modified date time but not through the AGI? Thanks in advance Tanvir Hi Gregg,

First of all really appreciate your effort on asterisk.

I have two questions regarding asterisk.

1.Is it possible to loop through a folder and play all files?

2.Is it possible to get file attributes of .wav file in asterisk e.g. created date time, modified date time but not through the AGI?

Thanks in advance

Tanvir

Just tested it. Since you wanted feedback:I am just trying to have some more services checked. Maybe my ambitions are not so clever cause I could try it out with heartbeat2 ... Because I am not only running httpd and asterisk on it. Furthermore, I have mysql-replication with Master and Slave (which is PRI and SEC, respectivly) and just because of this fact (keeping database clean) I have to "send" some mysql commands so that the slave becomes master. I don't know if you care at all about that, but I just wanted to thank you for that good bash-template ... but if YOU got any hints for me, my ears and eyes are wide opened ;) best wishes, r0n Hi, over there,

If you have OSX installed, boot to it and mute sound. This assures that you won't be annoyed by the startup/poweron sound afterwards. I even used This software (http://www5e.biglobe.ne.jp/~arcana/software.en.html) to be absolutely sure. Restart to confirm that no startup sound is audible. 2. Prepare rEFIt boot disk (CD-RW). 3. Boot Ubuntu install and remove all partitions, partition as you like for your Linux installation. Install Ubuntu, restart. 4. Put in rEFIt CD and holding down alt key, boot rEFIT cd. Synchronize GUID and MBR. Restart. 5. Insert OSX disc, boot from it, open terminal and enter following: where /dev/disk0s2 is the partition you installed grub (do 'diskutil list' to find out correct partition). Of course, '--verbose' is optional. This makes Macbook EFI firmware boot your Linux installation in legacy mode without long delay (20s vs 3s). 6. Restart your Macbook (don't forget to remove OSX disc). And boot directly to Linux! I think two steps are missing

What if IAX2 support isn't installed? Maybe the check would be better for SIP. Regards, Brian Hi,

Looks interesting! 2 Questions

What about astdb?

What if IAX2 support isn’t installed?

Maybe the check would be better for SIP.

A note, Asterisk needs to be bound to the floating IP for some handsets to register/accept calls properly using 'bindaddr: x.x.x.x'. I put this in /etc/asterisk/sip_general_custom.conf Thanks much folks! Awesone stuff, just finished testing it all and will be putting it into production soon.
