[Asterisk-Users] Upgrade *@home to CVS-HEAD

Hi Mark,

Yes Asterisk at home is built on Stable so I guess you have the option of
running a regular install of Head but realistically this is the best
position to build production PABX's from.

As for not using AMP and preferring to set everything up via nano - what
specifically couldn't AMP do? 

You failed to mention exactly what you were trying to achieve that AMP
couldn't do.

If it's valuable to you maybe the AMP developers could build it in to
the next gui upgrade.

If you haven't even connected up any pstn or hardphones I'm guessing you
didn't really spend much time 'trialing' AMP before dismissing it as a
beginner's toy.


Cheers,
Dean

Hi Dean

I haven't found any limitations as such.  It just seems a lot of people
have
this impression of *@home as being a beginners tool.  It was fabulous
for
the first couple of weeks, (as I have been running it for a couple of
weeks), but I want to see how I go about migrating up to the big brother
as
it were.  I gather the build of asterisk in *@home is a little behind
the
main distribution so since I think I have got what I want working I want
to
make sure I am up to date. It seems upgrading to the CVS build is a more
effective option than trying to upgrade to *@home 0.7.  

Re: AMP I gave up on that after about half an hours playing and went
straight into editing the .conf files manually, (SSH/NANO).  I tried AMP
but
things didn't work so I chose to do it manually, I learn better that way
:)
Plus a lot of the discussion in here revolves around the conf files, and
so
to understand the discussion you really need to be familiar with the
.conf
files themselves.  

I have no complaints about *@home.  It did what I wanted, got me set up
no
problem.  Once I'm upgraded and stable I'm going to try getting my PSTN
linked in, and then probably a cheap SIP / IAX hardphone.

Cheers
Mark Charlton

Mark, what exactly are the limitations you are finding?

You do know that you can make modifications to the AMP dial plan don't
you?

Hi

I installed *@home 0.6 to play with the system, and learn.  I tried AMP
but
didn't like it and so set forth into the conf files manually.  I have it
all
set up how I want, all my extensions work etc.  Reading this list and
playing in the wiki and google, I get the impression *@home is great for
learning, but has a few limitiations.  I would like to upgrade my box to
the
latest stable cvs build, but can't find any info on the process.  How to
save my .conf and recorded prompts and upgrade.  

If someone could point me in the right direction for resources on how to
upgrade my * I would be most greatful.  I assume the * build in *@home
is a
standard distribution, which I can just upgrade somehow.

Thanks again for any help.
Mark Charlton
