Hi People, I'm writing to get some advice on where to start when learning asterisk? I was going to begin learning with AAH but I wanted to find out if there is a certain build to avoid or if there is a Gui/front end that is better then another. I have been working with dialogic cards for the past 5 years and with auto dialers but I want to get into providing voip service, support and eventually help people save money with their phone systems. At the moment it is strictly for education but I really get a kick out of voip and telephone functions in general. Thanks in advance - Mark Adams <http://www.vistaprint.com/vp/gateway.aspx?S=5176697856> -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I'm fairly new to Asterisk myself and I also started with AAH. Unfortunately I had to remove all configuration files generated by FreePBX (the GUI of AAH) and started over using http://voip-info.org as my guide. Configuration files generated with FreePBX make use of advanced functionality available in Asterisk and that in turn makes it hard (impossible?) to read for a newby. If you've got some experience with Linux and it's kind of configuration files you might be better of without AAH. On the other hand I'm in the process of re-installing my Asterisk on a fresh Centos 4.3 installation so I can't comment on how difficult it is for a newby to install everything from sources. Hope I'll be able to manage it :) Mark Adams wrote:> > Hi People, > > I?m writing to get some advice on where to start when learning > asterisk?
