[Asterisk-Users] AGI perl problem

[Matt Florell]

We start asterisk under a detached screen with GNU screen. We use the
'L' flag to log to a text file if we want. Then we can "screen -r" to
the actual asterisk CLI any time we want.

/usr/bin/screen -L -d -m -S asterisk /usr/sbin/asterisk -vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvgc
