Leaving apart people like Mr Totaro, always speeking about other men
without knowing them ( I am a consultant, I am in the Networking since
early '90, I never ask anything about NAT......) anyway I am going to put
that book in my basket (i have a subscription with Oreilly, I can access a
certain number of books for at least one month, II use it especially
developing J2EE application.)

So thank you for the link

Andrea

The people who have been documenting Asterisk have been working on a book
for the last few months, it has been published by O'reilly (Asterisk-The
Future of Telephony)and is just now finding it's way into the major
bookstores, listed under Open-Source at Barns&Noble.

While it will not answer everything asterisk can do, but its glossery and
and appendix are very helpful for quick reference.  If you have been
following the Asterisk Documentation Project, some of it will be old hat,
but I'm looking forward to replacing my huge stack of printouts with it.

It gives a pretty good overview of VOIP, Networking, Telephony, etc.
