So since I am on a roll today, here's another to Chew on. I have Incredible PBX setup on a Pi here. I use it (at least till Google shut off the GVSIP service today) for my home phone as well as Allstar and Hamshack Hotline (See hamshackhotline.com for more info). I want to make one of my allstar nodes dial out through my PBX.....Incredible PBX is based on FreePBX and Asterisk sooo... I have calling from the PBX to ASL working fine. I can dial an extension from any of my phones and it connects to my ASL nodes. I am stumped on From ASL to PBX. Here is what I have done..... I followed the Directions on this page: http://docs.allstarlink.org/drupal/node/133 So first I went into Rpt.conf and set those settings. I used "pstn-out"for the context in Rpt.conf for the autopatch. Next I went into extensions.conf and set the following in pstn-out: [pstn-out] exten => _XXX,1,Dial,SIP/pbx-autopatch/${Exten} exten => _XXX,2, congestion Note that XXX is for internal extensions. I use 3 digit extensions internally for phones. Next I went to sip.conf and set up the following stanza: [pbx-autopatch] type=peer allowguest=yes nat=yes autocreatepeer=yes insecure=port,invite auth=md5 username=<the username for the extension i want it to dial out on> password=nunya host=<internal IP address for the PBX with port number> qualify=no disallow=all allow=ulaw allowexternaldomains=yes context=pstn-out When I dial *61 + internal extension (203 for example) it waits a few seconds then gives me fast busy When I watch on the asterisk CLI it tries to connect is not able to connect and at one point says "no such host: pbx-autopatch" (I would paste the log but I am not home to be able to copy and paste) Any initial thoughts? I've been playing with asterisk/freePBX/allstar for a little over a year now and I am confident with it, but this one has me stumped now...And it's tough to find documentation on this. or I am other thinking this and not able to wrap my head around it. Thanks much for letting me ramble.
