I just ran a FREEPBX module update and following the update I have following message in my dasboard: Your system is setup to only handle 1000 variables. This is not enough to handle the number of devices you have. You should increase this to at least 5000. I have no recollection of ever setting...

I did add the start of openvpn to /etc/rc.local (I admitted up front that I was new to systemctl). But that simply caused me to notice that rc.local was running twice on every reboot. I can learn and run the openvpn start out of systemctl, but that still leaves /etc/rc.local running twice. In...

I recently converted two IncrediblePBX2020 systems to Debian 2021 on both Vultr and Crown Cloud. Caveats: 1. I'm a noob at Debian. I've been on Centos since "asterisk@HOME" days, but minimal Debian 2. I'm a noob at systemd too I added the openvpn setup to my IPBX2021 servers as I had on my...

I'll add that I have just confirmed what I said on one of my IPBX21 installs. I listed iptables before and after service iptables stop - and in both cases all my "whitelisted" entries are there following the "CHAIN INPUT Policy(DROP)" I've actually done a little seaching for a script for Debian...

Is this a Debian installation? Because I don't think SERVICE IPTABLES STOP actually DOES anything on Debian. On Centos it will load IPTABLES policy of "allow" anything. I don't see the same thing on Debian (which I admit I'm kinda new to). After issuing SERVICE IPTABLES STOP, try listing your...

And if it isn't clear enough, once you put the "cidnumber" in the "callerid' field, you can eliminate all those "99" prefixes you put on your outbound faxes numbers. If you add a line to the dial pattern for each "cidnumber" then anything originating from any of the 4 iaxmodem lines will use...

I haven't looked at this for a while, but when I installed IncredibleFax on my IncrediblePBX2020, the hylafax/avantfax IAX modems DO have and a callerid of some sort, and they can be specified in the "callerid" field of the dial pattern rules. This has worked for me - although RARELY ever used -...

taking a quick look at checkdate.php, I'd guess the following is an issue? it looks like the year is being compared to 2020, and setting "BADFLAG" if its greater. (I can't seem to copy the code in here - even with the proper formatting flags) So it wouldn't accept 2021 (or later) ? Jeff

Thank you, @jerrm, but I spent several hours last night getting something similar to work. It is not as elegant as your one line solution but I think I did get it working... exten => _X.,n,GotoIf(${CALLERID(name)}:0,1) = "V"]?norobo:) exten => _X.,n,Set(USERDATA=${CALLERID(name):1:6}) exten =>...

In my case, it's not the callerid number. It's the callerid name. The callerid number has been spoofed from a number in my area code and exchange. I see this pattern in almost every robo call these days. They think I'm more likely to answer a call from my exchange. From my CDR reporting the...

Thanks, @ostridge, I am aware of the from-pstn-e164-us context, and I now use it for most of my trunks. I was just saying that I still have the removeplusone code that I wrote to pre-process the callerid a long time ago, so I know I have a proven "hook" where I can interrogate the caller id. I...

While i've been a long time follower of this forum, and I've run many iterations of "our" PBXes (back to "Asterisk at home") i've learned enough to manage my PBXes on my own, but now I'd like a little help. Many telemarketers seem to be using a callerid pattern of "V" followed by a string of...

I just installed IncrediblePBX 2020 yesterday and brought over some of my trunks/extension/etc from Incredible PBX 13-13. When I tried to make a test call into my stealth autoattendant I got a congestion tone. Looking at the log I see it couldn't find a sound "custom/2". I did some digging and...

Actually - take at least 2 off the list. I got the exact same wording from SnowVPS. Obviously there's some kind of relationship there. Now I have to get busy and pull my backup down and decide whether its worth trying to run from the house. It was really convenient running on a hosting service...

Ward - the problem with WinSCP is - of course - the "Win" part. That's because Windows is not case sensitive, so file.WAV and file.wav are equivalent syntax .... Jeff

There was a time, long ago, when I documented using a unique character string in the "user agent id" field of my ATAs and then used the string matching capabilities of IPTables to "allow" SIP connections where that string was found. Once the connection is allowed the "verify" option will keep it...

What I have previously done (and replicated in my current setup which I have not yet tested) is to the use the "Callerid" field in Outbound Routes. Each of the iaxmodem entries has a "cidnumber" field (in /etc/iaxmodem/iaxmodem-cfg.ttyIAXn) which the install process sets to "00000000000", and...

Thanks, dicko, I had just finished a google search on this and discovered exactly what you suggested, and by the way it IS a Centos 7 thing because of the level of logrotate included at that release (it said). I tried it and it DOES work. @NerdUno - is building the asterisk entry for...

Ok, I issued the logrotate command dicko suggested. For each of the 4 log files for asterisk it has he same response: rotating pattern: /var/log/asterisk/full forced from command line (5 rotations) empty log files are rotated, old logs are removed considering log /var/log/asterisk/full error...

I have an Incredible PBX 13-13 up and running, but I noticed that the Asterisk logfiles are not "rotating". I checked the Log File Settings, and I can see that "Rotate" is set (vs. Sequential, or Timestamp). After checking that I waited a few days, but the log never rotated. So then I looked...
