[Asterisk-Users] Beginners Question

[Jon Creasey]

Hi all,

New user to asterisk having just got it compiled and installed.

Running with no digium hardware (yet) and no soundcard in asterisk box.

Problem is using the sample configs with a sip phone added as follows

[2203]
type=friend
username=2203
secret=2203
host=dynamic
defaultip=192.168.0.2
dtmfmode=inband
canreinvite=yes

the console on * when running with -vvvvc says :- (whenb trying to dial
extension 500 (the demo) from my xten sipphone)

-- Executing Playback("SIP/2203-2e99", "demo-abouttotry") in new stack
    -- Playing 'demo-abouttotry' (language 'en')

and nothing but static on my xten-lite sipphone.

I really could do with some help here as it all seems to be working except
for actually getting sound.

additionally I get the following on syslog

Dec 15 21:25:59 mrpenguin kernel: Zapata Telephony Interface Registered on

Does this mean I actually need a soundcard in the * box.

Many thanks
