[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk, Hylafax and T38Modem - help!

[slwatts at winckworths.co.uk]

Hi All,

I know that this may not strictly be an asterisk issue, but if anyone has 
any ideas on this prob it would be appreciated.

I have a working asterisk setup using Suse 9.1, a BT ISDN BRI card 
(Fritz?), sipura 3000 and a few cisco 7940's. I wanted to do add faxing 
into the equation, so I thought I would try and setup the following:

PSTN->asterisk->hylafax->pc

At the moment asterisk and hylafax are on the same box. I went and 
installed t38modem, hylafax, openh323 and so on.... got chan_oh323 
compiled and installed. 

I can now dial an extension - it gets routed to t38modem, it picks up but 
I hear no modem tones (screeching) just silence. when I dial it with a fax 
machine the fax machine just says 'no carrier'. Looking at the hylafax 
logs I see t38modem answer but then get 'no carrier'. If I make t38modem 
dial an extension all I hear is a beeep.......beeep......beeep of a fax 
machine.

Also when I try to use fax tone detection in my exensions.conf it doesnt 
work - the call is always routed to the normal sip device and not the 
t38modem (oh323) device.  I have followed the examples on the wiki.

Am I doing something fundamentally wrong here? Do I also need to load 
faxcapi? I have not yet tried using the sipaura 3000 to pick up the 
incoming fax call - I will try that later.

Cheers,

Sam
