asterisk users - Jul 2004 - Updated Grandstream configurator

The most recent version of GSConfigure is available at 
www.buffalo.edu/~sbesch  Several serious bugs that kept the program from 
getting started have been ferreted out and corrected with the help of 
Bruce Komito. The program is now actually running on someone's machine 
other than mine. I have built this version with the oldest copies of the 
system dll's that I could find inn an effort to solve the VB setup bug, 
so, hopefully it will no longer send anyone through multiple restarts. 
You should have at least SP3, or even better, SP4 on Win2k. I believe it 
will run on Win9x, but I have not tested it and can make no guarantees.

Thanks, I've been having real trouble with those stupid DLLs. I can't
upgrade some of them no matter what I do (WIN2K)!

The bad part is that starting with SP2 on w2k ms EULA has changed to include 
your agreement to let microsoft not only see, what you have on your computer, 
but also install software on it. This has caused a big corporate hold on 
updating beyond SP2. The medical industry in particular is having a hard 
time, as ms has not signed a non disclosure to have access to personal 
medical information.

This simply isn't true.  The medical law you're referring to is HIPPA,
and there's *nothing* in the Microsoft EULA that allows them to read
otherwise proprietary or personal information off your system.

While I'm not a Microsoft apologist, I can stand to see them slammed
from purely ignorant disinformation.

It absolutely ships with Windows 2K/XP versions.  Regsvr32 will work
from any folder on a standard install.

Since I am quite sure that the program will run without updating any of
the dll's, what I should do is simply register them with regsvr32 from a
batch job and bag the VB6 installer altogether. Before I do that though,
can anyone tell me if regsvr32 ships with standard Win2k/WinXP?

Steve,

For your batch, be sure to include the /s switch after the command so it
runs silent (no prompts) 

Thanks,
Wiley

I now have a batch mode installer for GSConfigure which works on at 
least 2 of the machines here. If you are having trouble getting the VB 
installer version to work, give this a try. It's at
