netstat -lntup | grep 5038

-l is generally preferable than -a: only gives listening ports. -t: tcp
sockets only. -p: also pid and name of the process that has the socket.

Though most firewalls allow everything on the interface lo. My guess is
that either asterisk is not running or it has not been *restarted* since
the configuration change. Reloading is not enough to change the
IP address(es) Asterisk listens on or make it start listen at all
(right?)
