So my questions are:
1) Do others start using the GUI then migrate to hacking the config files by
hand?
I started with config files, of course, that was before the GUI ;]
I would suggest start with using the GUI, and use the file editor in the GUI
to see what its writing, and how things work!
2) If you change the config files by hand, does it confuse the GUI ?
The GUI does not have a lot of meta data, but of course, you have to
conform to the regulations of parsing the GUI, if you expect the GUI to be able
to read and edit it
3) Is changing the files by hand the best approach to take once comfortable
with the layout of the file structure?
If you are using the GUI, and you understand how it writes (very simple)
you should most definitely give it a shot (editing the config files and using
the GUI)
We are always striving to make the GUI more integrate-able with more 'advanced'
users that can edit the config files by hand, and have been doing that forever.
You can read on how to checkout the GUI here:

(With digital card detection/setup almost finished)
Good luck!

Hi,
We are investigating using Asterisk to replace the Mitel voip solution we
have here in the office. I've been impressed so far with asterisk, but I was
wondering how far can you configure the asterisk server with the GUI
supplied in AsteriskNOW.
I'm getting the impression that I will have to start hacking the config
files by hand to accomplish what this office requires.
So my questions are:
1) Do others start using the GUI then migrate to hacking the config files by
hand?
2) If you change the config files by hand, does it confuse the GUI ?
3) Is changing the files by hand the best approach to take once comfortable
with the layout of the file structure?
Thanks for any feedback
regards
Darryl
