SME Server and Voice/ Fax/ Modem
« on: April 10, 2009, 07:02:32 AM »
Currently I have SME server always running in a corner of my room, at the same time I have another Windows machine running. My windows machine I use to get my faxes and voice mails.
What I want to have done is to install that Voice fax/modem on my SME server so I don't have two machines running at the same time.
My question is, is there a software/ contrib that will pick up both Voicemail and faxes like my windows machine does? I know that  there is a fax contrib and there is a voicemail/ PBX contrib, is there one that can do both? And is there a one that can work with Voice fax/modem so I don't have to purchase any special equipment?

For voicemail you could use a TDM card and SAIL. For the faxes, you could use HylaFax.

But you can't use them together on the same phone line.
That is exactly what the Windows system I have does. It answers the phone with a voice greeting but soon as it detects a fax, it stops voice message and starts to receive fax.
I was hoping that there was similar system for linux so I don't have two separate machines running for server and for voice/fax.

Visit the SAIL forum. Selintra has been working on this issue over the last few releases.
