After a long successful run using Digium hardware with Zaptel/DAHDI tools and Linux kernel modules providing direct analog PSTN connectivity, Messinet Secure Services now fully employs Kamailio, RTPengine, and Asterisk in an entirely VoIP based telephony infrastructure.
Unfortunately, upstream DAHDI-Linux development has changed direction, removing support for long-stable analog telephony cards, and limited development is not keeping pace with current Linux kernels.
Messinet Secure Services will no longer maintain or build RPMs for DAHDI tools or related Linux kernel modules in our Fedora Linux RPM Repository or the Copr Fedora community build service.
Messinet Secure Services has upgraded from Fedora 29 to Fedora 30 with the notable exception of our FreeIPA hosts which will remain on Fedora 29 until FreeIPA 4.8 is released.
With this upgrade complete, we’re no longer building Fedora 29 RPMs in our Fedora Linux RPM Repository. Please check out our builds in the Copr Fedora community build service.
