Magnus,

I finally got to testing the patch myself.  Apparently it did not work
for me.  That means that if you are affected by the same issue it is not
fixed yet.  The current manifestation an incoming OOH_323 call fails in
30 seconds.

After reading your initial message more carefully I realized the problem
you experience must be different as the ooh_323 issue affects all
releases in 1.8 branch and you state that it worked for you when you
built from the svn trunk.

I would suggest you analyze the "full" log and make sure the fax
application does not complain of any problems, then check the "h323_log"
and make sure there are no complaints of codecs incompatibility.  If you
are not utilizing T.38 then only alaw and ulaw will support fax.

-Vladimir
