No, I didn't test hyper-v although I should. I think that could work too. I guess i was trying for total failure of any pc/node the next one will take over. matt

Does anyone knowof a setting to make the snom phone show a digital instead of analog clock? Never had this request before but i can see the reason why! tx Matt

Thanks. Did you get a chance to test it? Give me any feedback you want. Matt

I've written a windows VBScript that will make a simple failover solution for Windows. Basically you have 2 servers running pbxnsip with the configuration you want. When the live server goes down the backup server will take on the IP address of the live server. On the failover server you schedule the attached vbscript to run every minute: c:\heartbeat <live_server_ip> <live_server_mask> <live_server_gateway> example: c:\heartbeat 192.168.1.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 Everytime the script runs and the live server is up a windows event log will be written of success. The instant the live server fails, the failover process will role into action: #1-windows event log of failure will be written #2-IP address change will be done and event log written. Roadmap Features: -copy data from live server to failover on ongoing basis -automatically start the pbxnsip service Current Requirements: -pbxnsip running on a second server with the configuration in place -a pbxnsip license key with MAC address of master and backup server This is beta, sloppy code (hey, i did it in 1.5hr) and not tested very much yet. So test on a test senario and give me feedback. Matt heartbeat.zip

thanks nexsip. matt

okay, 1.5 hr later I have one. I'll post it on a different post so as not to hijack this one. Matt

Hi, with the cost of small appliance pc's coming down we really should have a manageable way to setup a group of computers that act as one in some way. And simple to use. (wow, big order) A start is to make a simple failover which a vbscript should easily do. Let me give this some thot...for the Windows world ... Matt

Okay, I'll get a key for you. Matt

Gautam, Yes! Only limit is 3 minute phone call. If you want to work with us as a reseller I can help you get jump-started with pbxnsip. thanks! Matt

Yes. It is fully functional. ONly limit is 3 minute calls. Matt ps-i will double check on exchange

Hi Gautam, Here is the link: https://www.pbxnsipsupport.com/index.php?_m...kbarticleid=520 Matt

does the http post method for trigger a call work every time? We use that method (from a client app we wrote) and it works every time. I personally haven't used the tapi driver yet. matt

It works perfectly... I just tested. (hey! why didn't you? ;-) First, setup a hunt group (399) which has all the extensions you want to distribute the message to in "Stage 1" ( 301 302 303) Now pickup your own phone, press the VM retrieve button, dial 5 then record the message you want to distribute and press # when done. Next it will prompt you and you can press 2 to copy this message, dial the extension (399) and ## and your done! (You could also have dialed the specific extensions you wanted to send the message to. wow) Wow, that it efficient and slick! screen shots http://windowspbx.blogspot.com/2009/11/its...ll-help_24.html Matt

it lets you dial a phone number from, say, Outlook, or other tapi enable applications. matt

Yes there is a way to do this. I'm not sure the exact steps but this will work: #-1 let a VM on your own phone #2- now listen to the message and press 6 while listening. You now can move the message to a hunt group, agent group or ext. Move it where you want. Let me know if this doesnt get what you want. matt

ageet--i had the problem the audio didn't come out the correct speaker... (could be my hardwarE) matt

Moishe, Thanks, I did use the MC50 as a softphone using SJLab sip softphone. The mc50 worked nice in my recollection and sjlab wm softphone (while not glitzy) did work nice too. But if mc50 has a softphone they wrote i would REALLY like to know about it. I wasn't sure that a warehouse person would want to be tapping a screen for a phone though....just my thot...;-) I did a video review of mc50 and sjlab phone (but youtube doesn't seem to be working today for it:) matt

Hey, I have a motorola mc70 sitting on my desk. (data collector). That doesn't come with a sip phone does it? does the mc75? thanks for all the good input. matt

moishe, Do you have a rugged wifi phone you like? tx matt

Absolutely...the m3 is NOT made for a warehouse. (teeny buttons and so light...just my thot there) And I'll admit as much as a fan of snom I am i do not like the snom m3 firmware...kinda troublamatic in comparison to snom 3xx series. Maybe the new snom m9 will fix this issue? I hope. http://www.snom.com/en/products/snom-m9-sip-dect-ip-phone/ -Looks like it has real buttons? -and it is going to have true snom firmware Snom should have something a bit rugged too. Matt

Appreciate that update! When is that patch available? tx mat

...i couldn't get it to work either.... matt

I'm running only black box. And (as far as i know) the latest of everything... thanks for that input nexsip... rrgg, ;-) matt

Hello, I had exactly the same problem and it was caused by a bad IP setup on the cs410. Bad gatway ip address. thanx Matt

Hamlet, I appreciate your frank feedback. I did find out from Sangoma that there is no netborder express for FXS...too bad. Matt
