I never said it was perfect, just another option. I have no affiliation to either digium or trixbox, but I did try both ISOs when i was starting out with asterisk. I don't use either any more - CentOS, asterisk, vi.
I didn't give AsteriskNOW much time because it wouldn't play easily with the non-digium passive BRI card I had at the time. I found the install-zaphfc script for trixbox and it 'just worked' so I stuck with it. It probably helped that I was already familiar with CentOS too. The 'FreePBX overwrote my edits' issue is a bit limiting. For most things you can edit the whatever_custom configs which it includes and does not overwrite, but there are things you just can't do this way. That's why I now use vi ;-) OTOH most people running a small setup won't need to edit the configs. I agree with Andy about the concept of the internal http server, and trixbox runs too many things on the PBX for my taste, but to be fair I haven't seen this cause any problems in a small setup. Small was ~20 SIP clients and a single BRI running on a passively cooled Via C7, so not exactly a powerhouse :-) When I get the Freerunner one of the first things I'll be trying will be VoIP, so it's great to see someone at digium looking at this. If it's going to gain openmoko features I might have to look at the GUI again too ;-) On Saturday 17 May 2008, Brandon Kruse wrote: > Heh, > > Try to actually edit the config files and then use it :P > > >From experience, asteriskNOW is my favorite, and the first platform > > I am going to get the client to work with automatically. > > (I am going to add an 'openmoko' option in the AsteriskGUI) > > AsteriskNOW Also has Digital / Analog card support for detecting / > installing / configuring all digium Hardware. > > It also has auto provisioning for polycom phones. > > :) > > But, I work for Digium, so I am somewhat biased right? :P > > I will push for more features based on openmoko, in the GUI, however. > > -bk > > On Fri, May 16, 2008 at 2:15 PM, Al Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: > > Another bootable ISO to look at its trixbox > > http://www.trixbox.com/products/trixbox-ce/features > > > > Both make setting up an asterisk server very easy.
