[Mac-telephony-list] Asterisk running on my Mac

[Francis Augusto Medeiros via List]

Hello folks!

I'm running asterisk on my mac - the 1.4.0 version by mezzo. Really  
awesome, with cool modules like growl support, everything under the  
Library folder, etc.

However, as Ben once said, it's a pain in the a** to use asterisk  
under NAT. I mean, to get my PSTN working is no trouble with the  
Sipura (though I'd like to know how to have 2 stage dialing - eg.  
dialing the 0 on the FXS phone and get the PSTN dialtone, with  
asterisk).

My main trouble is using FWD and Gizmo.

With FWD, I managed to call some numbers, but I can't receive a call.  
With Gizmo, I managed to call the Echo test, but nothing else - it  
even hangs my asterisk install when I do so, and also gets me lots of  
noise on the line instead of calling.

I use nat and dynip, so can anyone in the same shoe give me a hint  
about how to address these issues? I am confident that with Openpbx  
NAT issues will be less severe, so I can't wait to use it. But,  
please, don't forget those cool Growl Notify apps! :D After all,  
that's what makes it fun to run these stuff on the Mac!

Cheers,

Francis
