Ok, I am going for A@H with the CentOS iso disk. Installed and just checking a few things out. My other question is this, which I forgot to ask before. We have no Broadband here and more than likely will never have, so I am just looking at building Asterisk to handle inbound and outbound calls, at home via a ISDN card and for my hotel job via a PSTN line setup. Is this very complicated to setup or not?

You don't even give a meaningful subject to your messages, so in the future the discussions that followed will be useless to searchers. I didn't even bother reading previous "newbie question" threads.> > My other question is this, which I forgot to ask before.

Is this > very complicated to setup or not?No. Does that answer your question? Now go and do the minimal search: * What type of ISDN services is availble at your country/area? * Did you read a bit about the availble ISDN support in Asterisk? - It is generally better to ask questions that indicate you did and point to parts you don't understand, than just ask general qustions. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzafrir@jbr.cohens.org.il | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzafrir@cohens.org.il | | best ICQ# 16849755 | | friend

The first question you need to answer is whether you want to use a dedicated circuit (E1/T1/PRI) or multiple copper lines. This mostly depends on the call volume that you will be handling. Depending on your choice, you can install either a Sangoma or a Digium card to handle a dedicated circuit or you can use a Digium TDM400B card or a PSTN gateway to connect to your POTS phone lines.

I have seen a web site that deals with a lot of my questions so I will be reading it in some detail Sean -- ICQ: 679813 FidoNet: 2:263/950 Jabber: tcob1@jabber.org AOL: tcobone Vodafone Messenger: thecivvie -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
