WFM(tm)I did this: [root@asterisk root]# ASTARGS="-n" [root@asterisk root]# asterisk -Rvvvvvvvvvvdgn Then made a call. The black background shows up right at the "G" of the first "goto" statement. Would it make a difference if asterisk was started with -n or not? Seems to me that even if asterisk was started without -n that asterisk should honor any subsequent reattachments CLI options. -Matthew

It of course means you have to do a service stop/start to get it to kick in but after that ?a marche. -- Dave Cotton <dcotton@linuxautrement.com>
