Wei :

In Asterisk 1.4, msg$count.txt needs to include the leading 000 (i.e. msg0000.txt), so I changed it to msg000$count.txt. The message count will be wrong if there are more than 10, though.

That’s true, somewhere in mid-1.4 the developers switched to checking for specific filename formats. I’ve updated the script and post detailing the changes required to make it work for all messages. Thanks for the catch

we use a asterisk 1.2.32, i just searched for such a patch you published, but something was changed in app_voicemail.c, because your patch does not work, i get the follwing error:

Maybe you can adapt your patch for the newest asterisk 1.2.32 version? We need to gain the emailed recordings!

You’ve obviously never used Cisco phones with the SIP firmware as they’re being used in this article.

Cisco Phones running SIP (7940’s and 7960’s.. the other ones are not allowed on anything but CCM due to licensing requirements) are by far the least feature rich and manageable phones on the market for SIP based systems. Also, the 7912, 7940, and 7970 all running the SIP firmwares are ABSOLUTELY not identical interface-wise.

Try loading a Cisco 7940 with the SIP firmware and tell me how to load the web interface that was on the phone when it was running SCCP. Also, the SIP firmwares have been in flux since the day they came out, and Cisco is always changing how they provision them. The mass quantities of email I receive regarding Cisco provisioning proves that you’re incorrect when using Cisco phones on systems OTHER than Cisco Call Manager.

Have you even used a Cisco phone for a system other than Cisco Call Manager? If so, you should actually take a real close look at what you posted because you’re misinforming yourself.

eg server A message in mail box 222 needs to forward a VM message to mailbox 333 on another server B S ervers are set up with Dundi and calling to ext to ext works

I dont what to set up central Mail do to possible network outages

I do have 10 servers connect at present

I don’t know how Polycom Phones works and all that you mentioned above about polycom is good if it is there…..

—>I know Cisco IP Phones and I have been doing lot of Cisco IPT intsllation.almost all Cisco phones has identical when it comes to User Interface.

—>You can also Manage Cisco IP Phones remotely and we have been doing it quite successfully.

—>Firmware upgrade path is quite simple and as we just need to put the required bin image on TFTP and the phone will pick it up while booting.

——-You are trying to fool your management so please be fare and do good research before you put such comments against any technology.

I’m curious if I can use DUNDi to allow me to have redundant phone registration servers. For example, can I have my phones dynamically register to one of two servers and then have the dialplan just work. Also, if one dies, can my phones all register with the lone survivor until the second server is repaired.

There is a real shortage of useful DUNDi examples for this sort of scenario (heck, maybe it isn’t possible).
