[asterisk-doc] Asterisk console remotely, for old versions

[Tom Lobato]

  Hi!

  I'm reading "Asterisk: The future of the Telephony". Congratulations 
to asteriskdocs.org community, to me it's being excellent for get start.
 
  Well, I have a suggestion/errata about section "Writing AGI Scripts in 
Perl":

      "If safe_asterisk was used to start Asterisk, the first Asterisk 
console will be on TTY9, which
      means that you will not be able to view AGI errors remotely."


  In really, we can use conspy 
(http://ace-host.stuart.id.au/russell/files/conspy/, the remote control 
of Linux  virtual consoles) software for reach this task. Just enter 
remote asterisk server via ssh, then, as root, type 'conspy 9' if 
safe_asterisk run its console on tty9.

   Well, it seems asterisk already permit 'asterisk -r ' also when 
safe_asterisk is running, but for who yet use old versions, I hope it 
helps. Anyway its a util, and funny =), utility for unix admins.




  Cheers
