Basic configuration is described in the QUICKSTART that came with the binary.
But, since you want to originate calls from the asterisk server, that's a bit
different.

I'm assuming that you have asterisk installed and working with your sound card.
I'm also assuming that you still have the default extensions.conf.   If so, you
should be able to type

dial 600

at the CLI prompt and get the echo test.  If not, you'll have to get that fixed
before going further.

If you can dial extensions from the console OK, then just 

1.  Make and iax.conf entry for an extension

[101]
type=friend
host=dynamic
secret=foo
context=default
callerid="Remote PC" <101>
diasallow=all
allow=gsm

2.  Make an extensions.conf  entry for that extension in the default context

exten => 101,1,Dial(IAX2/101)

3.  Configure iaxComm on the other machine to use the iaxconf entry (username
101, password foo)

as described in the QUICKSTART.

You don't want iaxComm installed on the asterisk server.  Just on the remote
machines.

iaxComm does not use the SIP protocol.  It's config file is iax.conf
