[asterisk-users] Question regarding keywords in sip.conf/users.conf

[Rob Hillis]

Unfortunately RealTime isn't going to be an option - it's another level 
of configuration I want to avoid, but more importantly since I'm 
planning on being able to run these scripts on an Astlinux install, 
there won't always be a MySQL database available.  If worst comes to 
worst, and the extra configuration included in sip.conf becomes a 
problem, I'll move it to another text-based config file - not my 
preferred option (since I'd like to keep everything close-to-hand) but 
not a major problem since I'm likely to need a separate config file for 
global configuration options anyway.
