May 12th, 2010 Paul No comments

After importing extensions with trixbox using the bulk extension tool you will have to preform a few changes. When an extension is imported the context is set wrong for the voicemail and mailbox. To correct this change the highlighted sections in the following two pictures from “device” to “default”.

Asterisk dialplan injection

April 27th, 2010 Paul 2 comments

Dialplan injection is great for preserving changes in a web ui distro such as trixbox. The released version 0.1.1 has an error in its SQL file that will break operation. The install.sql included with the package has error comments that breaks the MySQL import. I have also modified the table for extension varchar longer then 10 which will allow rules for long distance numbers.

  • Download the modified install.sql (patch)
  • Now load the modified SQL into your database
  • mysql -u root -p asterisk <  install.sql
  • Note: trixboxes default root password is passw0rd (the o is a zero)

Alternatively here’s a bundled new installer (ver 0.1.1m) so you can follow these easy steps to install the dialplan injection module

Dell r410

December 16th, 2009 Paul No comments

Never buy a Dell r410 without the hot swap option. The drive bays are only removable if you take the cover off of the server due to a retaining clip at the back of the hard drive sled.

First check your openfire.xml file located in your conf directory (example: RHEL5 is /opt/openfire/conf).

vSphere + ESXi4 SSH Tunnel

December 3rd, 2009 Paul No comments

In order to use vSphere properly over a SSH tunnel forward the following ports

  • 902
  • 443

If you still cannot connect with vSphere to your remote machine update your hosts file. For example, if your ESXi 4.0 server is named vmsrv1 edit your hosts file:

127.0.0.1      vmsrv1

With Windows your hosts file is located in C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc and under Linux /etc/hosts

From Wikipedia

A batsu (punishment) game that took place over the period of 24-hours, where all, except Matsumoto, were locked in a sports arena, playing “tag” with various Oni (demons) who were men dressed in full-body black suits, were “summoned” to attack at random moments, each with a specific type of punishment written on the suit to be inflicted whenever the victims were tagged. This batsu game is the result of Matsumoto winning the race against the 4 others in “Gaki no tsukai – 4 tai 1 100m sou Taiketsu!” Read more…
