Michael, The problem running 'asterisk -rx ...' is a user's permissions issue, not rbash per se.
pbx ~ # sudo -u staff asterisk -rx 'sip show peers' Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl exist?) This is probably a good thing :-) Here is something I created for you to play with, a PHP script wrapper to make Asterisk command calls using AMI ... (I recall Michael Keuter was interested in something like this as well) asterisk-command https://abelbeck.com/lonnie/share/asterisk-command.tar.gz Place it into /mnt/kd/rbin/ and your rbash users will have access to it. While I spent a little more time on this than I intended, it's not production ready until it is tested more. It should be clear how to add/remove allowed commands, be sure to update the "usage" as well. Lonnie Example: -- pbx [staff] $ asterisk-command Usage: asterisk-command command_string Allowed command strings: 'core show channels' - Display information on channels 'dahdi show status' - Show all DAHDI cards status 'sip show peers' - List defined SIP peers 'sip show registry' - List SIP registration status 'voicemail show users' - List defined voicemail boxes -- On May 28, 2017, at 11:45 PM, Michael Knill <michael.kn...@ipcsolutions.com.au> wrote: > Thanks Lonnie. > > Im actually trying to run asterisk –xr within a script and it comes up with > ‘Unable to connect to remote asterisk (does /var/run/asterisk/asterisk.ctl > exist?)’ > Any ideas?
