<P><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=902353622-14122003>Dear All,</SPAN></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=902353622-14122003>I am a new user of Asterisk
interested in setting up a VOIP network based on Asterisk. I have deployed a few
Asterisk servers running on T400P and have started a few weeks ago to run some
LIVE traffic on one of the servers. Most of my current traffic is via H323 to
and from other carriers / customers and I am using the H323 driver written by
Jeremy of Nufone.</SPAN></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=902353622-14122003>I have had problems with
this, as it seems that as time goes, for instance after 5 or 6 hours or
sometimes 3 to 4 hours or less, the system would not be able to take any
incoming calls via H323 protocol. All the calls from my H323 customers (they are
mostly carriers sending traffic to me from other gateways such as cisco AS5300)
would be rejected and the system just would not take the calls for some reasons.
I could, however, call into the PRI (Zap interface) and make an outbound H323
calls to other gateways of my carriers. That is, incoming H323 calls would not
work after a certain period of operation time but outgoing H323 calls would
still be possible.</SPAN></FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=902353622-14122003>I have then downloaded newer
version of the Asterisk about 10 days ago, but then my Asterisk would start to
crash on me, the module would just stop running by itself and I had to restart
the Asterisk. Sometimes, it would just stop running, but 75% of the time, I
would see this error message:</SPAN></FONT></P><FONT><SPAN

<DIV><SPAN class=902353622-14122003><FONT face=Arial>It seems that it would
start to restart by would fail, and then I had to restart it manually. This
Segmentation error happens only with new version of Asterisk but not with older
version (10 days ago), does anyone here have any of such experience or know why
this is happening? Is this because I am running T400P instead of TE410P hardware
and that the newer version of software is not 100% compatible with the old
hardware? The inbound H323 problem, however, exists for both the newer and older
version of Asterisk, and I wonder if anyone has had this experience before. Is
this pertaining to the hardware as well or is there any other
reason/</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
