Thanks Lonnie. I knew that jabber/Gtalk had changed and that is one of the things I wanted to figure out. I am interested in "kicking the tires" some weekend when no one is around, but then be able to switch back again to the state it was in before I started playing. Won't happen before the new

I agree also. FreePBX is way too heavy/bloated for an appliance such as astlinux is targeted at. I struggle a lot with getting any kind of advanced dialplans to operate within the digium asterisk-gui, and we have to document which customers have "broken GUI's" due to dialplan magic underneath.

I definitely found freePBX BLOATED!..  esp when most astlinux installs are on embedded hardware..  the atoms have the power to run freePBX..  but freePBX is intrusive even in normal call processing..  whereas the original digium GUI simply created pretty decent dialplans and configs that still w

While googling on this topic, I've found many posts that agree with you Fernando, preferring the Digium Asterisk-GUI over FreePBX, and disappointed about the lack of recent development on the Digium Asterisk-GUI. Lonnie On Dec 17, 2012, at 5:04 PM, Fernando Fuentes wrote: > I disagree. The ma

Hi David, I swap back and forth between Asterisk 1.8 and 11 on my test boxes, no production work, though the databases will not carry back and forward again. The /etc/asterisk/*.conf are close enough to run for either, but you may want to "cp -a /mnt/kd/asterisk/* /mnt/kd/asterisk.ast18" to sav

I disagree. The main reason why I use astlinux is because is far from a bloated GUI. I hope astlinux stays far away from this types of GUIs. On Dec 17, 2012, at 3:31 PM, David Kerr wrote: > I used to use the Asterisk-GUI, but while it is good to get started, it does > not lend itself to sophis

[Astlinux-users] Astlinux and skype integration

2012-12-17 Thread Maarten Dekker
Hi, Are there some stable solutions or experiences with Skype integration for Astlinux? Couple of years ago I bought the license "Skype for Asterisk" but now I am getting close to the end... since Microsoft bought Skype it will end in 2013. Any thoughts around here? Thanks, Maarten

I used to use the asterisk GUI also  but found it really was causing issues more than helping as the asterisk versions developed...  FreePBX is great  but it does a lot of unnecessary-for-me voodoo with the dialplan..  I ended up writing my own set of code that based on INI files  creates a conc

[Astlinux-users] Another Asterisk 11 question

2012-12-17 Thread David Kerr
Is migrating to Asterisk 11 a one-way trip or can I go back to 1.8 if I want. For example, if I custom build Astlinux to include Asterisk 11 and then install it. Can I "revert back" to previous version of Astlinux that had Asterisk 1.8 without problems? I'm mainly thinking of AstDB migration SQL

I used to use the Asterisk-GUI, but while it is good to get started, it does not lend itself to sophisticated dialplans. So I have stopped using it and my dialplans and conf files are now probably completely incompatible with it. It also is clearly not getting much attention from Digium. There a
