Maybe you need to look at an inexpensive dell 1u machine. You shouldn't have to spend more than $1k for a machine to dedicate to asterisk. As you have seen, asterisk needs realtime speeds and when other apps get in it's way something gets dropped. If you don't need a rack mount server, you can find even cheaper machines around to dedicate to it. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ 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
