I believe what it does it create a new file called voicemail.conf.new in the 
same directory and then copies it into place, so worth checking the 
permissions on the directory as well, that asterisk can write to it.

I see your asterisk is running "-U asterisk" but this ps output is 
ambiguous. What does ps xaguwww show?

if it really is running as UID asterisk, you should see 
something like:

asterisk  8506  0.0  0.6 443672 12912 ?  Ssl  Oct02  31:46 /usr/sbin/asterisk -U asterisk -G asterisk

Otherwise, it could be some sort of odd file locking issue where multiple

  You should upgrade to the newer astshape script.  It classifies
traffic using iptables, which is much more flexible.  It also has beta
support for the HFSC qdisc:

Re: giving a user asterisk CLI access: how bad could it get


I think everyone is missing the point of the question.  He wants to know
if the user's shell is set to rasterisk, can they then use the CLI to get
a command shell.

The answer is "yes, they can", and in that case it may not be such a
good idea.  As someone else suggested, you can run a shell with "!".  I
imagine this could be compiled out of the CLI if you were so inclined.

VoIP traffic shaping

This was so interesting I had to move it to its own thread!

 

Is anyone using this script?  How does it perform compared to the older WonderShaper script?

Wierd queue question

I have just setup a small queue implementation for one
of my branch offices, replacing a 16 year old key system
that had a hacked together pseudo call queuing feature.

The 'agents' are not dedicated to the queues and want to
be able to logon and get one call only from the queue.
I know this is odd, but it is how my users want it to
work.

I have the login process setup using dynamic agents and
set a wrap-up time long enough for the agent to logout.
They have accepted this as a short term solution, but
they really want to be automatically logged out after
taking one and only one call.

Any tips or hints on how to accomplish this would be
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Dan

SPA3102 interdigit timers bug?

Hi. I have a SPA3102 updated with with Software Version: 5.1.7(GW).

I have this settings on Voice/Regional:

Interdigit Long Timer:  10
Interdigit Short Timer: 3

Anyway, when hooking up (without dialing anything), the timeout starts
after 3 seconds. It's like the Long Timer is unused. After dialing, the
Short Timer is also used to timeout.

Is that normal? Am I missing something?

Thanks.

I should have mentioned that I already added a method for the agents to
logout using RemoveQueueMember.  What I am looking for is a way to trigger
it automatically, after the agent logs in and gets one call.

I admit I have not tried the simple and crude method:
exten => 123,1,Answer
exten => 123,n,AddQueueMember($member)
exten => 123,n,Wait($sometime); long enough for a call to be delivered
exten => 133,n,RemoveQueueMember($member)

I was hoping that someone might have a more elegant solution.
