[Asterisk-Users] Can't create iax channel

[Jason Walker]

The statement of zaptel being required is strange...I use IX trunking
exclusively for my servers. Two of them have no zaptel/Digium hardware and
the trunk calls are fine.

Based on your post, seems that you have an issue with codecs more than
creating an IAX trunk.

What version of Asterisk are you using?

Hi all

Could somebody please give me an idea as to whats wrong here.  I'm trying to
connect 2 servers using IAX, I'm not trunking them because I read that you
need zaptel hardware installed at both sides to do the trunking.  
Theregistration seems to have worked as the output of iax show peers on the
side I'm working from is as follows

Name/Username    Host                 Mask             Port          Status
wayne            165.165.164.87  (D)  255.255.255.255  4569          
Unmonitored

and on the other side iax2 show users shows

Username         Secret                Authen           Def.Context      A/C

Codec Pref
wayne            password              000000000000001  default          No

Host

When trying to call from this side to that side I get the following

    -- Executing Dial("SIP/301-2d50",

Any ideas?
