Personally I think that Tao Linux (http://taolinux.org/) is better set-up than Whitebox. Anyway, for me, RedHat Enterprise Linux & it's 'rebuild' clones are the best development target to aim for - this is the stable environment (5 years) that people like from 7.3, brought up to date & supported by hardware manufacturers, software developers & hence corporates. I'm running 0.7.1 on RHEL3 without any problems so far :) F _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
