Michael, We don't *recommend* using the Asterisk GUI, but offer it as an option which some use.
For AstLinux 1.0 I briefly tried the Asterisk GUI and it seemed to work with the default sample asterisk configs (edited manager.conf and http.conf), but I did not exercise it very much. Some have reported it works better with Asterisk 1.4 vs 1.8, but can't confirm that. If you want to use the Asterisk GUI, I would test first with a fresh AstLinux 1.0 .img.gz image and play with it first. You should not have to do any 'chmod' or anything extra other than enabling the /etc/asterisk/manager.conf and maybe /etc/asterisk/http.conf. If you have some tips please report back so we can add them to the wiki. None of the AstLinux developers use the Asterisk GUI on a daily basis, so we can't offer much help. Maybe others can...
