ok guys I have a PHP GUI that will be great for both of you. direct editor to the whole file intact OR click to go to an extension. I will post a link to it tomorrow morning... as soon as I can get it off my production server HEHE.... it can do CRC checks on the *.cnf files and it will allow you to edit and parse out for you all your config entries with complex cnf files and default sample confs. it does login verification on the manager.conf as well as read/write features based on the manager.conf...
I am getting it ready to give to Markster to include (if he wishes) into the cvs tree. I would accept any constructive/positive as well as well thought out slightly negative comments and diffs... :) Dave Packham U of Utah >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/26/2003 7:04:59 PM >>> Well, for *, I fall into the newbie category (not for telephony, VOIP, Internet, *NIX, C, etc - those I've been doing since the Internet had 3 nodes :-) and each technology mentioned was a newborn) I believe making it easy for folks to enter the * world will do nothing but sell Digium products, expand/improve *, etc. Keeping it in a 'you have to be an expert hacker' world will not. I personally would assist in a PHP (I assume) web GUI effort, and will definitely contribute 'simple' but complete mini-examples of conf files for * - that seems to be something lacking at present for a newbie like myself. And - yes - I've read the manual from end-to-end several times already :-) My testbed is a dual Xeon RedHat box (shows as a 4 CPU setup to top), tomorrow should provide a 4 FXS card and an FXO card and I have a fully deployed H.323 VOIP environment (Altigen) to play with. I'll snag a PRI card after I get things squared away - * will be my PBX backup to the Altigen until such a time as it proves itself superior... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Gary Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 5:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Web interface for Asterisk I tend to agree with Steven on this... If the web form makes it easier for the "newbies" why not, its just another option.... It could even be expanded to be a dialplan for dunnies (woops, i meant dummies:-) interface.... Considering all it is, is an interface to write out a .conf file.... On Thu, 26 Jun 2003 17:04:28 -0700, Steven P.
