That is the problem... isn't scalable, doesn't fit for me.

In fact, yesterday Brian teach me the -rx.
I was thinking in something like this:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/asterisk reload
Stupid, ah? Since today, I'm using -rx "extensions reload" in php scripts.

Ok, I agree with you, present implementation of Asterisk is excellent, but
would be more comfortable (for many people, and me) to handle the content of
extensions.conf in mysql. I believe that it is good idea gives to Asterisk
all possible features.

I still thinking that sql services maybe the definitive solution to all
routing stuff. I'm not a C wizard, but I think that I could help. At least
in some points. :)
