Hi, Alex. Thanks for your answer, it is encouraging enough.
I'm reading through SER Admin's guide and I'm beginning to like it. I've also installed serweb and looks very useful. It seems a lot of things can be done with both asterisk and SER. My router/nat device is a debian box with iptables, so I think I can manage almost anything that want to go through it. Thanks again for your mail. PD.
