Summary:                    the Authenticate app does not authenticate my second
call
Description: 
Hello Folks,

I have a very weird issue here when I try to authenticate my calls with a
pinset. This is the scenario:

I place a call from an extension to an outside number, the system asks for
a pin, i dial the pin, the call is authenticated succesfuly and everything
ok.

If I put this call on hold and call another outside number, the system ask
for a pin, i dial the right pin but the system says that the password is
incorrect.

I'm entering the password correctly. To verify this i modified some lines
of the app_authenticate.c file to print the password i'm entering.

This is the block of code I modified:

        /* Start asking for password */
        prompt = "agent-pass";
        for (retries = 0; retries < 3; retries++) {
                res = ast_app_getdata(chan, prompt, passwd, maxdigits,
0);
                if (res < 0)
                        break;
                res = 0;
                /* here is my line to print the password */
                ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX: The password is
%s\n", passwd);

The first time i can see my password in the asterisk log file but the
second time the password is empty. I have tried dozens of times.

I'm using freePBX (which comes with Elastix). So, the dialplan logic to
handle the authentication is very simple:

[macro-pinsets]
include => macro-pinsets-custom
exten => s,1,GotoIf(${ARG2} = 1?cdr,1)
exten => s,n,Authenticate(/etc/asterisk/pinset_${ARG1},)
exten => cdr,1,Authenticate(/etc/asterisk/pinset_${ARG1},a)

Thanks a lot for any help.

Wow, very fast response... I'm just uploading the files. The files are
uploaded now. ;)

The remote side are generic phones sold by a company called VanAccess. I
will ask the customer if he knows a model name or more specific brand name.


I have not tried the rfc2833compensate=yes parameter; so, I'll ask the
customer to give me access to his equipment this night when the box is on
low traffic to get more info for you and run the tests.
