[Asterisk-Users] VoIP Newbie

[lonnie at outstep.com]

Hello All,

I am trying very hard to learn what it takes to set up an VoIP service
that will allow users to download some comunications software possibly
like "SIP Communicator" or something better and using the Asterisk PBX
software.

The problem is that I am a little confused as to what I all I need. I have
a lot of Linux/Windows development and networking experience but almost
zero VoIP experience.

The goal is to set up a small Internet software phone VoIP service with
video/audio and then expand to add standard PBX hard-lines as well to a
local area.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
Lonnie
