[asterisk-users] Help with sip configuration

[Joseph Jacobson]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup Asterisk as an outgoing SIP dial tester. There will
be no phones connected to this installation, and I don't need to
process incoming calls.  I just need to dial a number, have the person
acknowledge the call, and log that fact.  (Basically an automated soft
phone).  I found some info on how to do this here:

http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+auto-dial+out.


My company already has a functioning SIP/VOIP gateway.  I can configure 
soft-phones to talk it and make calls, so I know my credentials are good.
I've configured Asterisk to registers to this SIP server.  That appears to be
working ok, a "sip show registry" shows the registry.

I've tried dropping call files into the outgoing directory, but asterisk
appears to ignore them.  I'm guessing my problem is that I haven't properly
configured "extensions.conf" to dial thru the SIP provider.  (Or haven't
properly defined the provider in "sip.conf".

I'm using Asterisk version 1.4.21, on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1.  I'm
trying to use the minimal configuration possible, so I'm not using the sample
configuration files.  Configuration files follow.

Any ideas?

Joe
