[olug] capturing data from serial port

[Sam Tetherow]

What do you mean by phone data?  If you mean something along the lines 
of 'press 1 if you like beer' check out bayonne at 
http://www.gnu.org/software/bayonne/bayonne.html  I've used it for 
several production applications and it works like a charm.  It is a 
pretty cheap IVR setup.  A 4 port dialogic card will run you about $500 
and the box itself can be pretty much any bare bones PC you can pick up, 
it runs quite nicely on a celeron 500 with 256M ram and a 10G hard 
drive.  If you want smaller you can get single port cards for ~$100 and 
if you need more you can get a DM3 cards that have 48+ lines per card 
(using incoming PRI lines).
