One very big benefit of using a database with cron jobs is that your web application does not need to run as the same user (or otherwise weaken security permissions) as the Asterisk daemon. If running as the same user, you'd have to either set both daemons to the same group (which means the web server has access to all other files that Asterisk writes) or world writable, which is even worse. -- Tilghman _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2008 - September 22 - 25 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
