VICIDIAL ADMIN PASSWORD KNOWN STEPS

If you forget the admin password on vicidial user. login to mysql then enter to asterisk databases then run the following command. 

1.Login to your mysql database. type the following 

mysql -ucron -p1234 asterisk 

2. once you entered the mysql cli type the following ie after the mysql> 

select * from vicidial_users where user='admin'; 

NOTE: in the field of user='admin' enter your admin username once entering the above command it will give you some quiries as below 

+---------+-------+-------------+-----------+------------+------------+-------------+------------+--------------+--------------------+--------------+------------------+-----------------+----------------------+------------+-----------------+------------------+-------------------+----------------+--------------+----------------+-----------------------+-----------------------+------------------+---------------------+---------------------+------------------+--------------------+--------------------+----------------+-------------------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-------------------+--------------+------------------+--------------+----------------+----------------+-----------------+-------------------+---------------------+----------------+--------------+-----------------------------+-------------------------+------------+---------------+---------+-----------+-----------+-------------------+----------------------+----------------------+--------------------------+----------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ | 1 | admin | vicidialnow | Admin | 9 | ADMIN | NULL | NULL | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | NULL | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | DISABLED | NOT_ACTIVE | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | NOT_ACTIVE | 0 | 0 | 0 | +---------+-------+-------------+-----------+------------+------------+-------------+------------+--------------+--------------------+--------------+------------------+-----------------+----------------------+------------+-----------------+------------------+-------------------+----------------+--------------+----------------+-----------------------+-----------------------+------------------+---------------------+---------------------+------------------+--------------------+--------------------+----------------+-------------------------------+------------------------+-------------------+-------------------+--------------+------------------+--------------+----------------+----------------+-----------------+-------------------+---------------------+----------------+--------------+-----------------------------+-------------------------+------------+---------------+---------+-----------+-----------+-------------------+----------------------+----------------------+--------------------------+----------------------+---------------------+---------------------+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec)

THREE LEVEL DIAL PLAN FOR INCOMING CALL MOVE TO . 1.EXTENSION 2. MOBILE NUMBER 3. VOICEMAIL.

 I'm trying to set up a call routing that would dial an extension first, if failed, then divert the call to a mobile number, if no answer then go to voicemail. What i have done is I created a Custom App and have the following call flow in there:

exten => 9184XXXXXXXX,1,GOTO(s,1)                                                                        

exten => s,1,Set(DivertNumber=194xxxxxxxx)                                                        
exten => s,2,Dial(SIP/147xxxxxxxx,18,tr)                                                                      
exten => s,3,Dial(sip/${DivertNumber}@trunkname,18,t)            
exten => s,4,Voicemail(85991@HSS)                                             
exten => s,5,Hangup()

Configuration for Voicemail if you want:-

vi /etc/asterisk/voicemail.conf                        should be an entry on a voicemail file like this.

[HSS]
85991 => 85991,abc,xxxxxx@gmail.com

Vicidial Admin Password Retrivel

Disable direct root login and create dedicated SSH user

It is very important to secure your Linux server to protect your data, intellectual property, and time from the hands of crackers (hackers). Everybody says that Linux server is secure by default and to some extent this is true. Linux has in-built security model by default. We need to tune it up and customize as per our need which may help to make the system more secure. Linux is harder to manage, but it offers more flexibility and configuration options. Securing a server from the hands of hackers and crackers is a challenging task for a System Administrator.

The most important steps to secure your server is to disable the direct root login and create a dedicated SSH user. Enabling direct root login may help the hackers to login your server very easily.  Never login as root user for that reason. You should use sudo to execute root level commands. By using sudo we can greatly enhance the security of the system without sharing root password with other users and admins. It provides simple auditing and tracking features too.

Here we can discuss about how to disable direct root login and how to create a dedicated SSH user.

Disable direct root login

Please note that you do not log out from your system after disabling the direct root login. Follow the steps until you create a dedicated SSH user and then you can log out. Otherwise you will not be able to login to your system again. Please be careful about this.

Root user is the one who has the ability to do anything in your system. Imagine if someone got access to your root user account?! Let’s disable direct root login by using the below steps.

Edit the SSH main configuration page

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

There you can find the below line.

#PermitRootLogin yes

Change it as below.

PermitRootLogin no

Restart SSH service to update the changes.

/etc/init.d/sshd restart

Now you have disabled direct root login. Please follow the below steps to create a dedicated SSH user.

Create dedicated SSH user

After disabling the direct root login, you need to create a dedicated SSH user. (Only this user will have SSH login permission in your system.)

We are going to create a dedicated user called “isusr” Please follow the below steps.

Create the user account.

useradd isusr

Set Password for the user.

passwd isusr

Add this user to “/etc/sudoers” file. Simply edit this file or run the below command.

visudo

Here you can find a line as shown below.

root    ALL=(ALL)       ALL

The above line means root user can run any commands anywhere. Add the given below line under this line.

isusr  ALL=(ALL)       ALL

Now save the file.

From now on, the user “isusr” have the permission to run any commands anywhere. For this to work you have to add “sudo” to the beginning of every command that you execute as user “isusr”.

For example, if you are logged in as “isusr” and want to restart MySQL. You have to do it as shown below.

sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart

You can also switch this user to root user. For this please run the below command.

sudo su –

Now you have disabled direct root login and created a user called “isusr” with full permission in your system. This does not mean “isusr” is a dedicated SSH user. There maybe other users in your system that have SSH shell access. Please follow the below steps to block all those users and to set “isusr” as dedicated SSH user.

Edit the SSH main configuration file.

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Add the below lines.

AllowUsers isusr

Save the file and restart SSH service to update these changes.

/etc/init.d/sshd restart

Now you have created a dedicated SSH user.

By default the vicidial db comes with ip 10.10.10.15, run the below command to update to your current server ip and just press enter
/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_update_server_ip.pl --old-server_ip=10.10.10.15

........................................................................................................
Updating the music on hold configuration to work with asterisk
.......................................................................................................
nano /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf
change the below settings
[old-default]
(to)
[default]
(and)
[old-quiet]
(to)
[quiet]


.......................................................................................................
Reboot after the installation completed
.......................................................................................................

.......................................................................................................

Final Adjustments

.......................................................................................................

It is important to change the externip and localnet values in the sip.conf

The externip needs to be the public ip of your server.
The localnet will consist of the public ip/netmask of your server.

nano /etc/asterisk/sip.conf
externip = 10.66.226.132
localnet=192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0

Run this perl script to update the server_ip fields in the asterisk tables (copy the command as-is)

/usr/share/astguiclient/ADMIN_update_server_ip.pl --old-server_ip=10.10.10.15

Update music on hold configuration

nano /etc/asterisk/musiconhold.conf
;
; Music on Hold -- Sample Configuration
;

[default]
mode=files
directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3

[quiet]
mode=files
directory=/var/lib/asterisk/quiet-mp3

#include musiconhold-vicidial.conf

* There are other sample configration files in /usr/src/astguiclient/docs/conf_examples/ that you might want to look at and maybe copy from and customize.

Lastly, reboot the machine

reboot

.......................................................................................................

Diagnostics

.......................................................................................................

After reboot, check your logs for any errors, make sure asterisk is up and running. Be proactive and look for problems before you start configuring vicidial.

Run these commands to view log files:
tail -f -n 50 /var/log/asterisk/messages
tail -f -n 50 /var/log/messages
more /var/log/dmesg
tail -f -n 40 /etc/httpd/logs/error_log
tail -f -n 40 /var/log/maillog
tail -f -n 40 /var/log/cron
Run this command:
screen -ls
The output should look similar to this:
There are screens on:
    4090.asterisk   (Detached)

Start using vicidial
Login to vicidial and configure it.
Add users, campaigns, in-group, DID's, server, etc....
Go to: http://youripaddress/vicidial/admin.php
The default username is: 6666 and the password is: 1234

A note about security

When you get vicidial configured and working, make sure to follow basic common sense server administration rules like setting up a firewall, changing default passwords, disallow remote mysql connections or limiting it, etc...
