[Asterisk-Users] when * start at bootup chan_h323 fails to load

[SW]

Jeremy,

Ok, that worked. Thanks for your help, really appreciate it.

Let me copy this to the list, someone will find it useful.

So, If you want to run * at bootup, and you have chan_h323,

(a) then you should modyfy init.asterisk script with the path variables
(shown below) and copy it to /etc/init.d, rename to asterisk (or anything)
(b) Then do chkconfig --add asterisk and
(c) chkconfig asterisk on
(d) Now reboot and asterisk will start as a service

Merry Christmas.

Cheers

SW
