It worked, thank goodness. But does that mean it'll work... I just 
looked on the Asterisk-Users message list and for some reason Tom Rymes 
messages.

In response to Tom: I'm sure it's not an Digium-anything. It's a cheapo 
Office Depot replacement for when my original was struck by lightning. 
As I had said, I'm really not wanting to spend any money. It's not 
important that I get Asterisk up and running. Allow me to repeat, it's 
only a hobby box. But you're welcome to give me one... ;)

Thanks.
Logan.
