I am sorry, I ment to give a good reference after i said that ATFOT wasn't very helpful. Probably the best site for information on Asterisk is http://www.voip-info.org, however it is HUGE... you may find it a bit more helpfull to start with http://www.asteriskguru.com. (there tutorial on slackware is very complete and can be modified for gentoo) When in doubt most things can be found by a really good google search...
