<br><tt><font size=2>If you want to go the Asterisk from scratch route,
you would do well to pick up a book on the subject. Since you seem comfortable
with English, "Asterisk: The Definitive Guide" is a good place
to start. This will teach you how to build an Asterisk system from the
ground up. Depending on what you want to do, this may also be overkill.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>There are Asterisk distributions that already come
with a GUI front end that could make this all a lot easier to set up. AsteriskNow
(includes Asterisk and FreePBX Gui) is a good choice as would be Elastix
(Asterisk + FreePBX GUI + the Elastix GUI). These are often much easier
to set up for the Asterisk newbie. Either of those should be able to easily
handle what you want to do.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size=2>Even if you do go the route of a pre-made distribution
with a GUI, the Asterisk book is still useful to have. It really gives
great insight into the software and will help if you ever have to troubleshoot
from the command line.</font></tt>
