Thanks for the info. I'll take a look at voxalot.

I believe that if you set your asterisk permissions correctly, a SIP softphone 
could simply attempt to connect to any extension @ your domain. So for example 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] but the extension doesn't even need to be a number, could be 
text. You would have to tell asterisk to accept calls from unauthenticated 
sources and if you are behind a NAT gateway then it would need to be setup to 
forward the appropriate ports to your asterisk server. 

The X-lite softphone will let you enter a destination using this form of 
addressing. But even easier (for your callers, not for you) would be to create 
a web page that embedded a SIP phone, probably java-based, then just put a 
"click to call me" button on your page. Google search should pick up some 
examples. 

But why don't you want to register with a SIP provider, like voxalot, and have 
your server register with it, and your callers connect through voxalot? This 
would probably be more secure as you would not have to open up your server to 
unauthenticated incoming. 

As for version... 0.6.1 is about to go golden.

I would like to set up a system that allows anonymous people on the net to 
leave me messages. I would like it if they could use soft phones. I don't want 
a sip number if possible. 

IMAGES I DOWNLOADED 
1. AstLinux-0.4.8-i586.img 
2. cf-0.6-1958-geni586.img 

QUESTIONS 
1. Which image should I use? 
2. Is it possible to do what I want? 
3. How do I configure the system? (documentation) 

NOTE 
1. Both images boot 
2. I was able to call the demo number (1000) with the 0.4.8 image 

Thanks!
