[asterisk-users] Function SHELL not registered

[John Kiniston]

If you just need the name of the system it may be contained in the variable
${SYSTEMNAME}.

This is assuming you have the systemname set in asterisk.conf

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Main+Configuration+File

That said, for SHELL support you probably need to set :

live_dangerously = yes

Also in your asterisk.conf
