 #cd pwlib\_v1\_9\_0/  
#./configure  
 #make

the installation steps seem good.

I’ve installed openh323-v1\_18\_0 without any problems.  
in the openh323 directory :

# ./configure

# make clean

# make opt

good luck !

but there is another problem. where can i find the h323 configuration file.

Actually what im trying to do is, send and recieve calls from our linux+asterisk server to Quintum gateway and the gateway will thrwo our call to the pstn. All of this should be done using h323 channel. so i need to configure the channell first. so where is the h323.conf file located in linux environment?
