After many trial and error runs and following instructions on the web we have not been able to directly add H323 extensions to the Trixbox. Installing a gatekeeper got us a bit further in the sence that a connection can be established but is destroyed as soon as the ringed extension is picked up. All suggestions on the web come from people with large networks with a hardware H323 solution (Cisco Call manager, Alcatel).

Installing a gatekeeper is necessary to establish connections. Right now our H323 -> H323 calls are handled by just the gatekeeper. SIP -> H323 connections work fine. To get H323 -> SIP to work the Trixbox should probably act as gateway. The phone rings when we do this but once picked up the connection is destroyed by the Trixbox. Our guess is that we need to edit the configuration of the gatekeeper to have data streams always go via the gatekeeper, i.e. the gatekeeper serves as PROXY.
