------------------------------------

    Assignee: Telford Tendys
      Status: Waiting for Feedback  (was: Triage)

Asterisk 1.8 hasn't accepted bug fixes for about two years.

Does the problem exist in a currently supported version of Asterisk (13,14)?

I gave it a quick glance and I don't see the issue in current versions.

> Very likely this is a mistake. In testing it shows that changing the value of AST_USER inside /etc/sysconfig/asterisk has no effect on the running program because the arguments are lost in the script.
