NAME

isdntel - isdn4bsd telephone answering management utility

SYNOPSIS

isdntel [-a aliasfile] [-d spooldir]  [-p  playcommand]  [-t
timeout]

DESCRIPTION

The isdntel utility is used to provide an "answering ma
chine" functionality for incoming telephone voice messages.
The following options are supported:
-a Use aliasfile as the pathname for an aliasfile con
taining aliases
for phone numbers. The default path is
/etc/isdn/isdntel.alias.
The format of an alias entry is the number string
followed by one
or more spaces or tabs. The rest of the line is
taken as the
alias string. Comments are introduced by a leading
blank, tab or
"#" character.
-d Use spooldir as the directory where the incoming
voice messages
are stored by the "answ" script called by isdnd(8).
This
defaults to the directory /var/isdn. The format of
a voice message filename is:

YYMMDDhhmmss-dest_number-source_number
length_in_secs
-p Use playcommand as the command string to execute for
playing a
voice message to some audio output facility. The
characters %s
are replaced by the currently selected filename.
The default
string is ``cat %s | alaw2ulaw >/dev/audio''.
-t The value for timeout specifies the time in seconds
the program
rereads the spool directory when there is no key
board activity.
The screen output should be obvious. If in doubt, consult
the source.
