[Asterisk-Users] Help with simple H323 settings

[Tim Mickelson]

  Hi,

  I have about one year of experience with Asterisk, working with ZAP 
(digium, junghanns) ZAPHFC, SIP and IAX. These technologies are quite 
clear to me, the problem is that I have no experience with H323, but 
now, I need to use this also.
  The problem that I have is very trivial, so I think that this should 
be a very easy question for you guys whom know how it works.
  All I want to do, is use a H323 phone, SJPhone on my Asterisk. I have 
compiled the H323 of asterisk, i.e. not OH323. With the configuration 
below, I can make a call from my H323 phone, make it enter in it's 
context in the dialplan (from-h323 in my h323.conf). So in this 
direction all is ok. My problem is the other direction, calling with my 
SIP phone, I'm not able to make the H323 phone ring. Instead Asterisk 
tells me "no one is available to answer at this time", but if I've 
called my SIP phone seconds before, it works (?!).
  I'd be really happy if someone could give me a simple, working 
h323.conf, and the correct dial syntax for extensions.conf.
