Ooh thanks for that tip. I didn't notice those extra
files on the ftp server I'm using,
ftp://ftp.calyx.nl/pub/OpenBSD/4.2/packages/i386/

However, trying to do a pkg_add asterisk-sounds and a
pkg_add asterisk-native-sounds-1.2p0 both give the
following results:

stat() on closed filehandle $out at
/usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/Ustar.pm line 550.
syswrite() on closed filehandle $out at
/usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/Ustar.pm line 588.
asterisk-native-sounds-1.2p0:
completerisk/sounds/agent-alreadyon.ulaw: Bad file
descriptor
can't open
/usr/local/share/asterisk/sounds/agent-alreadyon.ulaw:
No such file or directory at
/usr/libdata/perl5/OpenBSD/md5.pm line 27.

What is wrong here?

That should work. Did you do anything unusual with /usr/local/share
or /usr/local/share/asterisk?

Stuart, Anders and Joe,

thanks for your involvement!
Everything works fine as from now. I've simplified my
dialplan and got an answer from my asterisk machine.

Off course I was stupid enough to forget that I had
locked down my asterisk installation by making some
modifications in /etc/rc.securelevel. That's the
reason I couldn't install the two extra packages.

Again thanks, and now I'm on my way to figuring out
this asterisk thing.

ps on a side note, OpenBSD is a very fine OS!!
