Hi Bill, We just built one for a customer with Fedora Core 3 and a TE210. We get PCI parity errors and the machine shuts down. I'm sure we'll get it working, but it hasn't exactly been the smoothest install ever.
I agree that the second CPU and GB of RAM is probably overkill and as you know, I also share your bias towards two smaller servers as opposed to one big one. -Mike Michael Crown Managing Partner www.thevoipconnection.com 321.989.6728 ext. 611 sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: William Boehlke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2005 5:32 PM > To: 'Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion' > Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Dell 2850 anyone ... > > > We successfully use 2850s with Digium T1 cards, though I > don't think we've installed a TE411P.
