[asterisk-users] Re: Wrong account code from iax_buddies

[voiplist]

Trixbox is only used as the client to simulate what we already saw
happening with a customer.

I don't think the fact that we used a Trixbox on the client side has
anything to do with the problem on the server side which is not using
Trixbox.

The on the server side Asterisk only sees the Trixbox as a client
coming in under an iax_buddies record which has an accountcode
assigned to it.

The server side is taking the call, then inserting the CDR with a
correct account code, dst, src and so on but the channel is wrong.
