I've been looking for a GUI to use with asterisk.  Your response implies 
to me that FreePbx can be used as an "add on" to asterisk.  

But their web site seems to imply it is an implementation of asterisk.

Then, reading thru the install docs, it seems the preliminary steps are the 
same, essentially, as a plain vanilla asterisk install, at least where zaptel is 
done, and begins to be FreePBX specific beyond that point (apache, 
"AMPortal", etc.).

Am I getting this right?  Can I add this to an existing asterisk install?
