This afternoon (CEST+1 +DST) I bought a license (2 channels). I'm using
FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE and Asterisk 1.4.3 from ports. I downloaded the
g.729 codec (i383, FreebSD 6.1 version) and the registration for
FreeBSD. Registration succeeded and loading the codec succeeded to. The
only issue is the path to install the license file. This has to be
in /usr/local/share/asterisk in stead of /var/lib/asterisk when
installing Asterisk from ports.
I made a call with the G.729 codec to a landline, so transcoding was
done. No problem. I will test the next couple of days, but so far so
good.
With kind regards,

What error do you get? Eg. you need Internet access on the Asterisk
server you are registrating on.
The readme states that you need eth0 as NIC registrating from. That is
of course not the case on FreeBSD. I have 1 NIC on the server, which is
vr0.
Does the utility 'asthostid' give any output?
