The only time I have physical access to this particular installation is during business hours and that's obviously a bad time to be taking a server down. It seems that I need the serial number to get a free copy of HPEC... but unless someone can convince me otherwise, I have a feeling it would just be easier to shell out the $10 per channel to avoid the downtime and drive out there.

Re:[asterisk-users] Looking for starting point?
hi, hi, i did wrote (assembler) programs for cp/m! if your experience is more on telephony', i think you will find trixbox easier. in one cd you will have a ready system. if your hardware is fully recognized, great ! do not use a too old machine nor a too new one. mind that the install will erase your hd. so buy a new cd if you would want to go back to windows. a 'normal' distribution will allow for dual-boot (not trixbox). mandrake, suse, fedora, red-hat & centeos are good candidate. (k)ubuntu, debian, ... are also nice one but then you would have to download, compile, setup all. this could be harder to learn. but you learn a deeper way maybe go to a linux group in your neighborhood most people there are happy to welcome a newbie. buy some books about linux and stick with one distribution (you can change later) my 2c from a young chap of nearly 48 t. jacobson -- Initial header --- >From : [EMAIL PROTECTED] To : asterisk-users@lists.digium.com CC : Date : Sun, 18 Feb 2007 14:05:15 -0500 Subject : [asterisk-users] Looking for starting point? > Hi, > > I am a retired telephone tech/manager who recently had a bad experience with a local company offering digital phone service (VoIP).

RE: [asterisk-users] Load balenced (ADSL) network connections, is it possible?
Unless my brain did melt down under the high heat here, there are a few things I would share : - 1 channel u-law uses at least 80k because of encapsulation So, think about compression - You can never use 100% of a bandwidth. (80% is a good max) - The values given are maximum values, far from the guaranteed values - Instead of adsl, I would go for sdsl (symmetrical) Where adsl is possible, sdsl is normally also possible Sdsl is more expensive but you can demand sla, higher guaranteed bandwidth (up to 50 or 100%) Never forget that the guaranteed bandwidth is between your router and the first equipment of your provider. You get NO warranty you have that bandwidth further away even on your isp backbone. Isp sales men always forget to talk about that If they say you get 100% to use all the time, sign immediately IF they put that WRITTEN alongside financial compensation if they fail. Dear mister sales man, you do not have to worry about compensation since you guaranteed it would not happen ;-) Other problems you will face with several IP’s : Even if you can manage several IP’s for the outgoing traffic, you cannot for incoming traffic as those are unaware of your situation Or they need to put multiple entries for you asterisk and try those sequentially Or you could go up for incoming calls and down for outgoing calls That is a simple solution, that will statistically work but NO warranty NOT really a telco way Routing problems might occur … Regards, T.
