Tristan, Tribox is simply the Software PBX Front end to Asterisk and makes configuring the server easy as it is all done through a web interface as opposed to editing script files.
The VMWare version is available from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=123387&package_id=1922 86 open up the 1.2.2 version and you can see it as tribox-1.2.2-vmware.zip and the Tribox site is at: http://www.trixbox.org/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=2/ The new version 2 software is just slicker in operation but all the functionality is built into the 1.2 version. At home I use the VMWare version on an old PC to control the 5 house extensions. You obviously can't rout calls "outside" the local network using the vmware, and the vmware free player is available from the VMWare site as opposed to using the M$ offering.

I shall download an ISO and check it out in a MS VPC? Will it work under MS VPC? Dave said... "The system I installed runs on 10 broadband lines each one supporting 2 x BT VOIP phones. Don't ask why I have 10 broadband lines - it's a bone of contention betw3een me and the client, but I'm stuck with them and it runs very well. I route each set of 2 x VOIP phones out through the Asterisk box onto the appropriate Broadband channel and voila." Who, a lot of bandwidth is required then, or is that the bone of contention? What sort of bandwidth would be needed to run say 8 voip lines? Not going to be all running at the same time!
