^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ That Line is wrong

The correct exten:  

exten => 100,1,Dial,H323/[h323.id you want to call, using a gatekeeper]


Notice I did not say 'peer'  as chan_h323 has no sense of a peer because 
of the gatekeeper component of H.323.

gatekeeper=[ip or hostname of your gatekeeper]

[my_h323id]
type=h323
prefix=1248



All of this is explained in the h323.conf.sample and the documentation I 
have submitted to Digium.
