<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> Just
thought I would share my experiences with the group concerning my efforts to
get APP_RPT up and running! Sooooo far I have it working…but let me
back up a step or two here…. I spent some considerable time
looking at distro’s… I decided on Fedora Core 7 (has
everything)… I downloaded all the config files for the repeater and
the newer version of app_rpt… then I went thru the process of getting the
libpri, zaptel and asterisk files… I used WGET to download the most up to
date (As per asterisks web site). Loading and compiling everything went
fine until… I went to compile asterisk with the new app_rpt.c
file!! To make a long story short… there was an error at MAKE time
that stated not to use LOCALTIME_r to use</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Ast_localtime instead! (OK that blew me
away!!!!) soooooo I replaced the newer app_rpt with the original app_rpt…
That did the trick… now the compile and makes all worked! And I actually
got the machine to repeat and get dial tone… to put it bluntly I had a
blast playing with the CONF files and actually proved I could get a repeater
up!!!</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> Okay….
Now I am thirsty…. Why would the newer app_rpt not work??? Well I
found the localtime_r file and replaced them with the older ones version
ast_localtime oh and I had to put a “, NULL” at the end to
make it work… Only 2 lines had to be changed… I recompiled
asterisk with the new modified app_rpt… and it worked great!!
Actually the DTMF command for time works now!!</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'> Okay…
here is where I can use some help…. I got iaxrpt
working with the repeater… and actually have my Microzap td400p
board working as 2 separate repeaters that can be linked together or connected
to by iaxrpt… But I want a little more….
I would like to know how to set up extensions, external sip devices… and
make it so that I can dial into the asterix box and maybe get a digital
attendant to give me a list of extensions and even maybe require a dtmf
password to connect to either Repeater… or even the ability to connect to
another extension… and maybe even a conference….</span></font></p>

am under the impression that this system can do everything except wipe your

work with a regular phone system!</span></font></p>
