That would be: one of the many customers we host. We have a hosted setup with over 100 companies, so an hour or two will be a massive claim I'm sure. At the moment we have 4 asterisk servers under vmware that act like one freaking big and stable machine to the outside world. I dont think this is because of vmware, could have done the same setup with asterisk dedicated hardware but why bother when it works this way as well ? -- Michiel van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x71C946BD "Why is it drug addicts and computer aficionados are both called users?" _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
