> Sigh what? Mike, read about PRI - Sigh... because you took the time to agree with Tony, giving me grief while at the same time pointing out that you were not doing that. Of course you were. Since Tony had already made his point, why did you need to bring it up again?
You then post a separate reply to the original question when just before that, you told me you didn't know what I was talking about. Sigh because as soon as I point out the obvious such as I am now having to do, a few of you must at all costs have fun with this, turning the persons post into garbage making points like 'we need to understand'. Does someone else feel the need still? Of course you know what I was asking about, I've seen plenty of people talking about virtual PRI's. Who the heck would not know that a VPRI might simply be an abbreviation. Doesn't seem to be at the moment but give it time maybe :). Bottom line is that there are a few old timers on this list that seem to feel the need to be hard nosed to people. Why? Maybe a few of the users are simply too freaking serious for no good reason. Give it a rest. There is no reason to be like that with ANYONE on this list. No one makes you reply to anything, you don't have to. If you don't like how someone posts something, it's not your place to be the teacher or know it all and tell them how they need to learn everything about VoIP before ever taking the chance of using the wrong term while asking a question. God forbid! >That's all I'm saying, and I think that is > what Tony was asking - what is it exactly. A virtual PRI is really just a billing method for a SIP trunk. Figured pretty much anyone on this list would know that. The question really was, how do I set up sipx so that I can use IP authentication to the ITSP over user/password.
