Clive, serusers_at_iptel.org should be included in the discussions for the benefit of the user base. Are you using MySQL? If so, did you perform these steps: * enable mysql in <ser-src>/modules/acc/Makefile and recompile the acc module and copy acc.so to /usr/local/lib/ser/modules edit modules/acc/Makefile (remove hash on the line DEFS+=-DSQL_ACC) cd <ser-src> make modules=modules/acc modules cp modules/acc/acc.so /usr/local/lib/ser/modules * compile the mysql module using cd <ser-src> make modules=modules/mysql modules cp modules/mysql/mysql.so /usr/local/lib/ser/modules * Add an alias using serctl. For example: NOTE: This assumes you really do have lookup("aliases") in ser.cfg serctl alias add 1000 sip:5551212@sip.mycompany.com Now you should be able execute "select * from aliases;" and see the new alias record. If you added the alias correctly (an all else worked) then you should be able to see the alias

follows; serctl alias show 1000 which should return something like this: <sip:5551212@sip.mycompany.com>;q=1;expires=-90832 Cheers, Paul --- clive(a)phonehome.co.za wrote: --------------------------------- Hi I hope you don't mind me emailling you. I am having a similar problem with alias's that you had, just that mine don't seem to even be getting past the "go" mark. I put#160; "lookup("aliases");#160;#160; " into the ser.cfg file, and I have all the fifo permissions correct. There does not seem to be any information in the database Do you have any pointers?
