I love TrixBox, with the custom config files you can tweak pretty much with
TrixBox too, I have at least done some. Plan to do a plain Asterisk install
later, but for now I learn a lot about the config files just with TrixBox. Some
things might be a bit harder with TrixBox due to some of the premade dial plans,
but can get it to work :-)

Emne: Re: [asterisk-users] How do you like TrixBox?
I agree with Mohamed. TrixBox is an excellent way to start, but in the long run,
if you attempt to use Asterisk in a business setting, you will probably want to
be able to hardcode the conf files yourself. I have only recently changed over
to TrixBox from a standard installation on a debian system. Honestly, I really
don't use FreePBX much at all. I use it to create new extentions for
VMB's since I need to create a number of them every day for users on my
website, but overall I code my own dialplan. I don't really understand
FreePBX well enough, nor do I really want to put in the effort of learning it
since I can already hand-code. TrixBox just has a couple of nifty features that
I enjoy to make daily life a tad easier.

Dear All,
I am have experimented asterisk long before any gui was available and also
currently working with trixbox, ofcourse working with asterisk directly makes
you more aware but when you start deploying the system you will face management
issues for asterisk, as anyone who deals with asterisk must be experienced
enough with it and that will make the people who support the users a few, while
with trixbox those few people can be left as escalation points and through GUI
you can make other less aware of asterisk administer the day to day tasks.
Trixbox in my belief is making more people everyday depend on asterisk ofcourse
knowing how to deal directly with asterisk will be a plus but yet this could
come by time with trix box and everyday experience being gained will make them
someday reach that level.
Trixbox is a great start point to implement asterisk but learning asterisk
configs must also be in schedule to maintain a persistent environment.
Thx

But, can't it be one way of "learning"? Can't one setup and
modify
a Trixbox setup, then peruse the conf files, to get familiar with
(almost) all things Asterisk?
Spoke as one who was not very pleased with their own foray into Trixbox
and is still creeping up to speed on Asterisk.
