Summary:                    pbx_spool does not detect callfiles over NFS
Description: 
My "outgoing" folder (/var/spool/asterisk) is a symbolic link to a NFS
mounted directory.

Callfiles written to the directory are not detected by Asterisk.

If I write a file in the directory from the server itself, the callfile is
successfully detected. But if the file is written on the NFS directory by
another server (mount point is shared among multiple servers), it's NOT
detected.

This used to work in Asterisk 1.6.2.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
inotify is now used for picking up call files which apparently doesn't work
with NFS.

To work around it you could revert to polling by specifying the
--without-inotify option to configure before building.
