[Asterisk-Users] Setting up Asterisk with fwd

[Jon Miron]

Hey all,

I'm trying to get my Asterisk server up and running on
fwd.pulver.com just to get the hang of it until I get
my FXO card in a couple of days.  It seems to connect
but that's about it.  If I try to dial into it from
another fwd # it says user is not online.

In sip.conf I have the following added:


register => xxxxxx:xxxxxx at fwd.pulver.com/489125

[fwd.pulver.com]
type=friend
secret=xxxxxxx
username=xxxxxx
fromuser=xxxxxx
fromdomain=fwd.pulver.com
host=fwd.pulver.com
dtmfmode=inband
nat=yes
canreinvite=novv

Is there something wrong with this?  Why isn't it
signing into fwd?

Also, I wanted to set it up so I could dial 8 + fwd #
and have it call out using this, but it doesn't appear
to work.  Apparently this Asterisk stuff is harder
than it looks :)

exten =>
_8.,2,Dial(SIP/{$EXTEN}@fwd.pulver.com/$(EXTEN),20,tr)

Thanks in advance for any help!
