[asterisk-users] Refresher course needed!

[Brad Sumrall]

Hello everyone

My name is Brad, I am an old Asterisk Vet of the very early days just coming
back to join the group.

Ok, for starters, I feel like the "monkey with the light bulb" looking at
extensions.conf and sip.conf.

It has been some time.

A friend ask me to set up a asterisk server that records phone calls.

FC4
Asterisk 1.4
And all the latest and greatest


Problem number 1

Some good "get back into the grove" literature.
"I work CLI only", never much for graphics and gui's

Problem number 2

We have asterisk logged into teliax but cannot see the inbound call come up
on the CLI

Tethereal says this;
1660   3.829799 207.174.202.4 -> 66.109.17.92 SIP Status: 100 Trying    (1
bindings)
1661   3.831357 207.174.202.4 -> 66.109.17.92 SIP Status: 200 OK    (1
bindings)

Asterisk says this;
*CLI>

Nothing, notta!

My extensions.conf
(yes, I loaded the samples)
 [general]
static=yes
writeprotect=no
clearglobalvars=no
;#include "filename.conf"

[globals]
CONSOLE=Console/dsp				; Console interface for demo
IAXINFO=guest					; IAXtel username/password
TRUNK=Zap/g2					; Trunk interface
TRUNKMSD=1					; MSD digits to strip
(usually 1 or 0)


;From here is brads stuff
exten => _1XXXXXXXXXX,1,DIAL(SIP/teliax/${EXTEN},30,tr)
exten => YOURNUMBER,1,Answer()
exten => YOURNUMBER,1,DIAL(SIP/user,20)


Thanks to all!

Brad
