There is also a virtual version of Asterisk called VoipOnCD. Pretty neat. You can check it out at:

Danny,

 

Asterisk itself is not a Linux distribution. It sits on top of a (typically) Linux OS. From Asterisk.org you can download the Asterisk source code, which can be compiled into a binary to run Asterisk. There are several Linux distributions centered around Asterisk however. They might be more what you’re looking for. The most popular systems seem to be AstLinux (http://www.astlinux.org/ ) and [EMAIL PROTECTED] ( http://asteriskathome.sourceforge.net ). You might want to give those a shot if you’re just looking to download an ISO and start playing with Asterisk immediately.

 

Cheers,

Alex

me too i am sort of starting new and thanks for all of your input.

where on the website http://www.asterisk.org/

 

do you load the iso to burn to cd rom?

it is highly confusing now.

 

i have an old 1.5 iso version i was trying but after trying to install it keeps saying that the package is damaged so i WAS going to get a new download and try again.

 

thanks for help you can offer

danny

Zia,

 

Many people start here:

www.asteriskdocs.org

 

If you want a hard copy you can grab it on Amazon (or wherever it is cheapest):

http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/0596009623

 

 

Enjoy.

 

Jim

Hello everybody, I am a silent observer of this forum form last couple of days and want to benif from your experiences. I congratulate on your successes and teamwork.

 

I am a very new lover of Asterisk (from just reading about it) and want to try this on one of my servers. All I need is the IP to IP routing… can someone help me in putting me to the right direction? Where should I start? And what are the best practices.

 

Currently, I am doing this with a hosted switch solution and a friend of mine told me that I could use asterisk and do this myself rather then spending hundreds of dollars on these leased switches. Do you guys think he is right? Can someone help me here?

 

My apologies in advance if I am asking really stupid questions or if I am on a wrong forum. I am just starter starter who has a lot of passion to learn about this technology

Thanks

 

Zia
