[Astlinux-users] Persistent Host Bans On Full Reboot

2017-07-25 Thread Cody Alderson
Hi, First time post to the list. I am not a pro by any stretch of the imagination for Astlinux or Linux or Asterisk for that matter. Fortunately, telephony is a hobby rather than a way to earn a living. Anyway, I noticed that Adaptive Ban does not persist with the IP host address ban upon reboot

[Astlinux-users] Astlinux Weather Extension Capabilities

Hi, I am using an agi found at https://abelbeck.com/lonnie/astlinux/info/weather.php to report temperature, wind and a few other basic current weather events. However, is there a weather reporting configuration for Astlinux that gives a more detailed weather report? Maybe something that can interp

Lonnie, You said, "Starting with working examples (like weather.agi) makes customizing much easier than starting from scratch." That is how I am learning. I first learn of the potential to do something with Asterisk, then I see working examples and work to figure out how the code strings function.

an easy way to transfer files from my laptop to Astlinux on the thin client directly without using the flash drive. I ask because I am probably going to relocate the thin client. I know Windows, and I even remember DOS. However, keep in mind I am just a novice with Linux and Asterisk. -Cody
