Enable networking on Intuity R3.0 / MAP/5 ? 1

[Telemonster]

Hello,

I recently was given a Lucent Intuity Audix R3.0 system. I am used to the IS-II / Voice Power system and really welcome getting to play around on the Intuity box.

Someone else gave me some original disks for some old Windows software that allows you to play the messages from Windows via IP interface to the Intuity. Supposidly according to the manual the Intuity R3 supports it. (The company no longer has a Lucent system after Lucent tried to eat them alive over Y2K issues, they had the disks but no manuals for the Messager software).

First things first I had to recover the root and sa and sysadm passwords. The previous owner gave me craft, and I figured out a way to shell out of the craft account to unix (Exploit?) but no way to escalate privs to retake root. So I recovered it (if anyone needs root recovered I feel confident! Email me if you need it done).

After that I added a SMC network card, and unixware reconfigured the kernel to support it. It took some fudging with the addresses (IRQ 10, Memory mapped mode on an 8416TP I believe, base of c800). It has a nic, but ifconfig -a doesn't report the interface. Maybe it has to be plumbed like in solaris? I'm mostly a FreeBSD, Solaris and IRIX person -- this is my first dabbling with Unixware. Just the fact it has networking is welcome after my experiences trying to enable the 2nd serial port with inittab on the AVP ISII system.

So then I notice that Intuity still doesn't show me the network screens. I found the software is installed under /netw and managed to get into some of the screens, but the one screen still says TCP/IP networking is N/A. How do I switch this on so I can see this windows thing play messages? I have no legitimate need to use the Windows Message Manager client, I just want to see it go once. I don't feel comfortable having the voice mail system attached to the network -- serial console cable on a terminal server seems more reasonable when it comes to security.

I ran some install script under the netw directory and started networking and an option tree to configure the modem appeared for a while.

Any help is appreciated. I realize this is probably beyond the depth that most people have explored with the Audix system. Audix is my long time favorite and I never forsee having anything else. Audrey Audix #1!!!

Message Manager uses imapi not networking. The Networking software is if you wanted to network multiple Intuity's together. (i.e. New York can forward a message to Los Angles). You will need to set the IP address through the networking menu for Message Manager to work. You should have access to it using craft for a login.

To check to see if IMAPI is activated go to >Customer/Services Administration
>Feature Options

See Maximum IMAPI sessions. It should set to 32.

Then go into AUDIX Administration and set the maximum amount of IMAPI Sessions and flag the other 3 settings to yes. Then change the COS for a mailbox and set IMAPI to yes. I hope this helps.

I would love to see your notes for recovering the root login. If you could be so kind to email me lowvolts@netzero.net or lowvolts@hotmail.com

Also if you could recover the password for login tsc, that will give you permissions to change just about anything in the Intuity.

When I go to the menu it shows me the current # of allowed IMAPI sessions as 0 of 32. Also TCP/IP says N/A. Any idea how to turn it on? I found that there is a configuration file somewhere on the disk with the information in it but I haven't narrowed it down to which file it is.

Also the OS isn't showing the network card when I do an 'ifconfig -a'... just the local loopback interface lo0.

Hopefully I will get a chance to play with it more this week. I think when I logged in as tsc it would still only allow me to view the settings, but I will check again.

"networking" under the tsc or sysadmin is definitly not networking in a TCP/IP sense.

When systems are networked, do they actually move voice messages between them? Or do they just share an index of the messages and rely on networked Legend systems to dial each other and connect thru to the voice mail?

Telemonster, could you email instructions on how you recovered the root password, I am having some trouble with a Intuity. My email is stan@as-if.com Thanks.

If possible I wouldn't mind that code as well.

Sorry, it isn't a code per se, I just ended up hex editing the hard disk and replacing the password.

I'm thinking maybe I should offer it as a service or something, it took a few hours to do but I'm fairly confident I can repeat the process.

I checked to see if I could make a boot disk to reset the password without using commercial software (Unixware license) but had no luck (Linux doesn't seem to be able to mount the Intuity's filesystem, nor could FreeBSD).

Now if it is a VxFS filesystem.. . . . . .

I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE INFO HOW YOU GOT PAST THE CRAFT LOG ON AND ACCESSED THE ROOT.
