Why do all this in VB or .NET and tie it into an M$ only system??Do we have any Visual Basic or .NET programmers out there? The reason I say that is this. I would suggest that a program or application be put together with Visual basic or .NET that will generate the config files for you by translating what you want to do in telephony terms/jargon to asterisk cofiguration terms/jargon. Maybe an FTP application be included as a module to the application. Maybe even a test bed module that will emulate your results without having to put the config files on the asterisk box itself, lowering the risk of any complications that may occur when making changes. How it would work is like this: 1. Windows application started. 2. User defines the variables within the application that pertains to his/her telephone service environment. 3. Any incomplete variables do not get written to the config file that will be generated. 4. When completed setting up all available variables, the user can run an asterisk emulation test to verify that the configuration is bolean. 5. Upon verification of a bolean setup, the user can create the config files by pushing a "generate configurations" button. 6. Files could be written/generated to a directory specifically related to the application that generated them. 7. Using the FTP module within the application, the user can migrate the config files to * box. (Application can have a dropdown menu of possible * boxes to migrate the config files to.) 8. Once the user has verified the correct configuration files in place, the * box can be reloaded and physically tested.
Just my thoughts,

Take your ideas and build them in a PHP or similar language and then they will be OS independent and everyone will be able to take advantage of it..
Later..
