It doesn't really need to. A 'warning' is like saying "here's something 
you should be aware of."

Personally, I prefer to resolve all warnings so there is less cruft to 
sift through when something actually does go wrong.

I don't know about your version of Asterisk.

Unless you (or your package maintainer) has been fiddling about, it should 
be in the same directory as all of your other Asterisk configuration 
files: sip.conf, iax.conf, extensions.[conf|ael], etc.

Glad to meet you.

If you meant the user running Asterisk is root, this is a less than 
optimal situation that can lead to really big problems.

At a minimum, 'touch /etc/asterisk/users.conf' may make the warning go 
away. You should read up a bit to see if the features of users.conf make 
sense for your environment.

Personally, I set up my Asterisk installs so they only load the modules 
I'm actually using by specifying 'autoload=no' and explicitly loading the 
modules I want in modules.conf.
