[asterisk-users] "does /var/run/asterisk.ctl exist?" -- but Asterisk *is* running.

[Mojo with Horan & Company, LLC]

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but I'm not sure if Trixbox runs 
asterisk as root or not.  I have to "sudo asterisk -r" on mine, but I'm 
not running Trixbox, I'm running Asterisk 1.2.
