Miscelaneous

Latest version is 1.0.0. Please do NOT use version 0.6.2 as available at www.openh323.org. This site has not been updated for a while.

A lot of the references here are in regards to compiling/runing t38modem on linux, (RHES,CentOS,FC2,FC3,FC4 have been shown to work).

Version 1.0.0 introduces Unix98 PTY support, so 'Legacy Character Devices' are no longer needed. Note that the labels used for the actual devices change because of this.

For versions prior to 1.0.0 you will need a linux kernel that has support for 'Legacy Character Devices'. If you do not have '/dev/ttyx0', you will need to recompile your kernel with 'CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS=y', and 'CONFIG_LEGACY_PTY_COUNT=256. The menuconfig section is 'Device Drivers -> Character Devices -> Legacy (BSD) PTY Support'. This option is enabled in FC2 default kernels, but not in FC3 and FC4 default kernels. Click here for some more info as to how to recompile your Fedora/CentOS/RedHat kernel.

You will need Pwlib and OpenH323 available from http://www.voxgratia.org/

README file for latest release is available here.
