HI All,
I’m new to Asterisk and also to Linux. I have a large IVR project that I’m about to embark on. I’m new to programming; new to Linux and new to Asterisk. I think I’m about to climb a steep learning curve. I have an existing IVR which is getting on for nine years old and is no longer supported by my vendor. I intend to replicate the system almost as is and then add additional features and functions. I have been looking for a developer to put together my project and while doing so have done lots of research and spoken to many people. The people who seem to understand my needs have recommended Asterisk. For the last couple of days I’ve been trying to look into Asterisk and learn as much as I can; this has got me excited, motivated and a little confused. Asterisk sounds like a great project and a great community. I think I have as much of an overview as I can. Now I need to set up a Linux system and get Asterisk running on it. I’ve started to read the book Asterisk: The Future Of Telephony and would like to now setup up a hobby computer to do some hands on learning. The book covers Red Hat Linux so I thought I’d look for a ‘Red Had for Dummies’ book. Even that got confusing. There’s Linux Fedora, Enterprise Linux 4 and others. Can someone suggest a starting point on learning Linux? Thanks in advance, Mark No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
