Olle,

That's a great start but as the documentation states:

NOTE:  this requires substantial work to be sure that Asterisk's 
environment has permission to write the files required  for  its  
operation, including logs, its comm socket, the asterisk database, etc.

Can that be made easier or is that just the way it is?

- Justin
