I remember sitting with a Broadcloud rep 18 months ago and they were worried about how SFB on Office 365 would affect their business. Still find it amusing that we took it as a serious threat.

I still have a lot of hope for FusionPBX and some other open source products as well.

With the Intel NUC does anyone know if Fedora works well there?

I would miss my 4TB 3.5" SATA drive, but I can buy a large 2.5" drive.

@scottalanmiller what about those HP boxes you linked. Any idea how well Fedora supports the hardware?

Customer-reported operating systems

These operating system versions are reported as compatible by owners of Intel® NUC Boards and Kits. Intel hasn't validated these operating systems. We recommend you use the latest kernel. If you need assistance with Linux on Intel NUC, check your distributor's website and forums for peer assistance.

Seems to be compatible.

@jaredbusch Nice! That looks better, the other one was going one by one and that's it...

@JaredBusch wow, that is seriously weird.

@jaredbusch said in What terminal program do you use with Fedora:

Now that I am running Fedora derivitves on all my computers, I have a need for a terminal program.

My MacBook Pro had screen available by default.

What do all of you use when connecting with a USB to serial converter for console connections?

here are some options. I think most here have missed the "serial" bit in your statement...

This morning after installing a few other ones to test, the default terminal started displaying things correctly when using screen.

@dashrender said in Sample Configuration files for Yealink T42S:

Here are a few settings many people might like. These will present popups on the phone for each thing mentioned.

features.forward_call_popup.enable = 0
features.missed_call_popup.enable = 0
features.text_message_popup.enable = 0
features.voice_mail_popup.enable = 0

That is certainly a case by case group of settings. I have those disabled about half of the time..

Agreed.

The esp-group encryption also, but it at least still does MD5 hash.

Opened a ticket with Vultr. We'll see what they suggest.

Interesting feature, what's it main use though?

Not tieing my to me desk to make a phone call. I wear a DECT headset pretty much all day. When I am at my desk I don't need this function, but when I am working from elsewhere around the house, I cannot originate a call without it. That or I have to walk back to my office.

Luckily FOP2 also has a call origination function.

aww, since your headset doesn't have a keypad, you need this to make calls from your headset.

Why would I want a headset to have a keypad? It is a headset.

I know your just angry because you haven't had enough coffee or nooners, whatever - it's OK.

If hangry is when being hungry makes you angry, would this be cangry or nangry?

@eddiejennings said in Independant Contractors on a FreePBX system:

@dashrender Logically, I shouldn't make that assumption. The assumption is based on a gut feeling fueled by some experience.

I gotcha - if I'm a contractor, and that's not a spelled out benefit, and it's clear that the benefit is being removed because I'm no longer using my own phone, I'd be rather unhappy at the pay cut.

This whole notion that the phone is it's own system is what's frustrating to me personally.

DND on the phone is not DND on the PBX (in fact I have no idea what the PBX sees in that case - I'd guess it sees the phone simply busy).
But this is not what a company with an phone admins/operators would want. For example, in my case, my company wants the operators to be able to remove DND from a phone at the operators choosing. But in the case where the phone is DND'ed, they can't do that.
This type of stuff leads to split brain thinking - where is the problem? oh yeah - duh, I'm an idiot and I setup DND on the phone, and then didn't program a button on the phone to use the DTMF function of the PBX to set DND status.

Yep I'm just bitchin'.

That's always been there, even with analogue phones. Just most people didn't buy phones that powerful.

Of course analogue phones could be that way, any type of device could be. Heck my old home analogue phone had a contact list feature. But my home phone service never did, so it was never a conflict.

Psst - I do believe that some home phone analogue providers did offer phone system based contact lists/quick dialing.

It was all in your PBX. An analogue PBX could have all these same options.

uh what? my home phone was in my PBX?

You PBX was the CO in this case.

Sure, for the second option I mentioned, but in the case of my phone having a contact list, that had nothing to do with the CO or a PBX, it was all inside my phone at home. Oh, yeah, I said all of this already.

The PBX for your phone at home is the CO. This is not a hard concept. The CO has all these features too.

So yes. your home phone always had this functionality.

Well that's good.

The UCP is supposed to be improved, but it looks like more work instead. Need more time with that.

@bigbear said in Trying the FreePBX 13 to 14 Upgrade:

I gave the UCP a try, there was no default layout or apps. Kind of a miss there because by comparison it is maybe its stronger using-facing benefit.

@jaredbusch said in Trying the FreePBX 13 to 14 Upgrade:

That is what I am seeing and wondering WTF.

We have plans to add customization by Administrators from within User Manager. We will also note to add default layouts in there as well.

The tutorial walks you through most of this however.

More to come in time.

Yeah, a default layout would be awesome. The tutorial is good. I went through it yesterday.

@jaredbusch My apologies, I meant QoS!

Well then, yes, better QoS performance because better processors.

That's neat. More accessible is good.
