<DIV>flamed? I hope not. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have already started reading up on mysql and c and Perl and xml and java and aaaarrrrrgggghhhh... So many things I need to get working so little knowledge of coding and so little time. All I can offer anyone right now is good will and future benefits from anything code we eventually develop. I just need help getting started.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Oh well, if someone wants to flame me so be it, Ill get over it and they will too. :-)</DIV>

<DIV style="COLOR: #000000">Here come the flames.....watch out.<BR><BR><BR>Terry, I would suggest picking up a book about MySQL at Borders. Not a<BR>thick one, but a starter. There are many sites on the Net that can help<BR>too..<BR><BR>I would suggest: <A href="http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/">http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/</A><BR><BR>The first link should get you started. I think reading some of this and<BR>refering back to wiki will help put the puzzle together.<BR><A href="http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql_intro.html">http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql_intro.html</A><BR><BR><BR>Joe<BR><BR>-----Original Message-----<BR>From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com<BR>[<A href="mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com]">mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com]</A> On Behalf Of Terry Goodwin<BR>Sent: Friday, June 04, 2004 12:36 PM<BR>To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com<BR>Subject: [Asterisk-Users] MYSQL asterisk configuration<BR><BR><BR>Hello all.<BR><BR>I am a little (allot) lost on my next hurdle in getting an asterisk system<BR>built. <BR><BR>I would like to get my asterisk servers configured exclusively from<BR>database. I have read through the wiki on this subject but once again I<BR>find that there is a certain level of knowledge that is assumed. As of now<BR>I know nothing about databases in general and specifically MYSQL. I do not<BR>know how to set up the database structure (SQL commands, scripts?) for the<BR>required databases. I think I have the add-on stuff done right but there<BR>have been a few conflicting documents and comments in the mailing list<BR>regarding this. <BR><BR>Bottom line... <BR><BR>I am rather confused as to where to start, what direction to go in and how<BR>the details are done. I am, however, willing to learn. I just need to do<BR>this in a compressed time frame as I need a really cool "show peace" to eval<BR>so that I can get some $ thrown at it. <BR><BR>Future needs will be Netware Edirectory integration at some level, mainly<BR>looking to pull name and phone # out of edirectory and present it to a cisco<BR>7940/60 via XML. I would love to be able to link the asterisk database<BR>directly (ldap, dirxml, etc) to edirectory at some point so that changes<BR>made in edirectory are sent to the appropriate asterisk system. Voicemail<BR>networking (the ability to forward voicemails to a user or group of users on<BR>remote asterisk systems and possibly an AMIS feature that will allow<BR>networking with existing avaya/octel voicemail systems until I can replace<BR>them with asterisk). Providing high reliability. I have been looking to<BR>have two asterisk servers (primary and secondary) share a PRI but Im still<BR>not real clear on how to achieve full redundancy of the server yet.<BR><BR>... and finally, at some point (when I can prove the potential of<BR>asterisk) HIRE A FREAKING DEVELOPER so I can do whatever I want with the<BR>system without causing myself to have an aneurism by trying to read (much<BR>less figure out) source code. Although I was successful in modifying<BR>mime-construct to change the (from: ) field of the email. Yeah I know, its<BR>Perl script... But I was still pretty proud of myself.<BR><BR>If you actually read my entire screed I offer my sincere thanks. If not,<BR>well, your not reading this anyway.<BR><BR>Respectfully,<BR>Terry<BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>Asterisk-Users mailing list<BR>Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com<BR><A href="http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users">http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users</A><BR>To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit:<BR> <A href="http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users">http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users</A><BR></DIV></BODY></HTML>
