Hi,

If I buy skype for asterisk, can I use skype clients going through a2billing system so that it will ask card number and pin number?

Thanks

Yes

How can I do it? Any document or resource to read?

Thanks again

http://pbxinaflash.com/forum/showthread.php?t=6752 shows how to do it with FreePBX.

The Digium documentation is clear and easy to read.

Once working, then configure Skype as an access number for calling card operations.

Joe

Thank you.

I have successfully installed Skype for Asterisk. From FreeBBX I set the destination to music on hold and it works fine. But when I use Skype as a Inbound access number, skype says "No answer",

This is my extensions_a2billing.conf

exten => _X.,1,Answer
exten => _X.,n,Wait(1)
exten => _X.,n,DeadAGI(a2billing.php|1)
exten => _X.,n,Hangup


[custom-a2billing]
exten => _X.,1,Answer
exten => _X.,n,Wait(1)
exten => _X.,n,DeadAGI(a2billing.php|2)
exten => _X.,n,Hangup

I am using [agi-conf2] entry.

According to log, call is not forwarding to [agi-conf2]? Can I get more elaborated log?

Please help

Hi

This - Goto (custom-a2billing,maxtalk-dialin,1) does not match an extension in custom-a2billing.

You have _X. e.g. match any number between 0 and 9 followed by anything.

maxtalk-dialin does not start with a number between 0 and 9

Joe

Thank you for the prompt reply. Now its working well.

By the way it ask for account number and not the pin number. Can edit a2billing.conf so that it asks for pin number?

Thanks

The account number is number A2Billing uses to authenticate customers.

Joe

Thanks.

One more clarification please. Which file should I edit to force to use g729 for sip trunks of a2billing?

You can force a trunk to use g729 by the settings in the trunk
ie.
disallow=all
allow=g729

also can be set globially in sip.conf

bare in mind that the g729 codec is usually not installed by default on most systems and will have to be added as it requires a license in most uses.

Hi,

I have successfully set Skype for Asterisk as a DID and now it is working fine. In CDR I found that skype ID of the caller is coming as the source of the call. Can we use this ID to authenticate the call so that it system will not prompt for PIN number.

Thanks

Really ? How to add caller ID = Skype ID (character - not number ), so that the system will not prompt PIN number (pinless) ?

Because in my extension, I use the code


I make a call via my Skypename = SKYPE_NAME to DID skype. So but the system always requires authentication via PIN number.

How to make a call pinless from Skype to a2billing ?
Thank in advance for all helps!
