[Asterisk-Users] chan_h323.c

[John Fortman]

I have been using Slackware 9 with the sources for ptlib_unix, pwlib_unix,
openh323, asterisk, zaptel and libpri in /root/src

1) load all 6 packages (+ ohphone if you need an h323 client) from cvs to
/root/src
2) /root/src/pwlib: configure, make, make install, ldconfig (not all that
sure why, but Slackware requires ldconfig to be run)
3) /root/src/openh323: configure, make, make install, ldconfig
4) /root/src/zaptel: make, make install (reload and reconfigure your zaptel
card)
5) /root/src/libpri: make, make install (I don't have a PRI card so I don't
do anything here)
6) /root/src/asterisk/channels/h323:
    - edit Makfile
    - set PWLIBDIR = $(HOME)/src/pwlib
    - set OPENH323DIR = $(HOME)/src/openh323
    - make, make install (installs openh323.a) (make samples if you do not
have h323.conf in /etc/asterisk when done)
7) /root/src/asterisk: make, make install, make samples
8) asterisk -vvvc
    - the last section should load chan_h323

I haven't had any problems compiling this from CVS for almost a month on at
least three different systems with some version of Slackware.  I have had
problems with other things like transferring calls but that's a different
issue.

John.
