[Asterisk-Users] Newbie....

[Hall, Eric M.]

Now for the next question. I have an old AT&T Merlin Mail system with a
Brooktrout comcode series 4 cards in it. Could I use them?


Thanks again for your help

You can certainly use Asterisk without Digium hardware. But some
applications will not work out of the box, like music on hold and
meetme. For them to work you may need to compile ztdummy (uncomment the
appropiate line in zaptel Makefile), and make sure that your sip clients
transmit silence. If you are running RedHat or Fedora, start asterisk
with LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1 Good luck,
