Hi All!

We are running Nagios 3.0 on RHEL 5.1 and are trying to get YAPS 0.96 with an AVM Fritz PCI ISDN card to work as our notification system.
capiinfo seems to be showing the correct information:

Number of Controllers : 1
Controller 1:
Manufacturer: AVM GmbH
CAPI Version: 2.0
Manufacturer Version: 3.11-07 (49.23)
Serial Number: 1000001
BChannels: 2
....

This indicates to me that the driver is correctly installed and we can see the card. (Is this correct?)

I run yaps like this

/usr/bin/yaps 0170XXXXXX "TEST"

And get this output:

Found service D1-0170 for 0170XXXXXX
Sending following message:
0170XXXXXX (D1-0170, 0170XXXXXX): TEST
Trying to open /dev/ttyI0 for modem standard

[Expect] <cr><lf>ATDT001712521002<cr><cr><lf>NO DIALTONE got NO DIALTONE
Unable to dial D1-0170

The NO DIALTONE comes immediately (i.e. no time out). I have googled for the last several hours and have not found anything definitive. The closest to anything definitive is that Fritz cards work primarily with SUSE. Unfortunately, I have found nothing specifically for RHES 5.1 (kernel 2.6.18-53.el5) which describes exactly modules to load and in which order.

However, since capiinfo reports the info from the card, I assume that it is a configuration issue with yaps or the connection, in general. (see below for loaded modules) The yaps works from another machine using the same connection. It is in a different room, so we have to go throug a couple of patch panels. I have switch that cables and am now using new ones I took right out of the bag. Perhaps the patch panels have a problem. Up to the final [Expect] the output appear identical.

/dev/ttyI0 looks like this:
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 43, 0 Jun 2 18:04 /dev/ttyI0

I was thinking about forcing yaps not to wait for a dialtone, so in /etc/yaps.rc I changed this

dial ATDT0%L\r <60CONNECT|OK|BUSY|NO\sDIALTONE|NO\sCARRIER

to this:

dial ATDT0X3%L\r <60CONNECT|OK|BUSY|NO\sCARRIER

I no longer get "NO DIALTONE" immediately, but I get a timeout after 30 seconds.

I will provide any other configuration information/files anyone needs.

I would be grateful for any assistance as I really need to get this running.

Regards,

Jim Mohr
