-This code runs on Open H.323 v1.12.2 and PWLib v1.5.2. If you use different
-versions, you are on your own. See the Makefile for more details.
+This code was recently updated to deal with Open H.323 v1.14.4 and PWLib
+v1.7.5. Not much testing has been done, please test and report your findings.
-chan_h323 has been implemented using Asterisk's RTP stack insted of trying
-to implement a pseudo sound card driver. I feel this is more effiecent,

+You can find the Open H.323 source here: http://www.sf.net/projects/openh323/
NOTICE: Whatever you do, DO NOT USE distrubution specific installs
of Open H.323 and PWLib. In fact you should check to make sure
-your distro didn't install them for you without your knowledge.
-Check everything out of CVS. If you dont know how to deal with cvs, learn.
-Also, if you are not using the listed versions of Open H.323 or PWlib

-top level directory and issue a make install.

Upgrading Asterisk

After you cvs update (or make update) Asterisk you have to go into

Dialing an H.323 channel

-Note: At the present time chan_h323 does not support dialing with a type=peer.

Without a gatekeeper:
-exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial,H323/${EXTEN}@ip.address.or.hostname/callerid

Using a gatekeeper:
exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial,H323/${EXTEN}
-The 'callerid' is optional. If omitted the callerid will be determined by
-any type=h323 stanzas in h323.conf
+Notice: When using a gatekeeper you cannot utilize the type=peer features,
+since the H.323 spec states that when a Gatekeeper is part of an H.323 network,
+the Gatekeeper shall be used for all communication.
