Dean -> if you are having these troubles and everyone keeps advising you to use > asterisk@home why aren't you doing this?Not to be rude, but I believe you are the only one who suggested he use asterisk@home. asterisk@home is a great (actually stupendous) product for those that want to have a PBX with a GUI up and running within a few minutes. It does not, however, force users to really learn what's going on underneath things. Noah Silverman expressed an interest in learning asterisk and its workings, so asterisk@home is probably not what he wants. I'm glad to help him with asterisk. I don't think it's always right to direct all new people to asterisk@home. If they want that, fine. If not, why push it? Thanks, Noah Miller
New people should be made aware that Asterisk@Home exists and that it is a good way to get up and running with a good amount of features followed with a disclaimer that if you want to take full advantage of everything that Asterisk can do, then at some point you will need to get into the config files directly. There is no reason not to offer @Home as an excellent starting point.
