If you need to edit the networking set up – for instance to change to a static IP, set the default gateway, or DNS then you need to run

system-config-network

This will bring up a GUI to set this up manually.

The article is incorrect in saying that "typing netconfig" will bring up a GUI for configuration – it is not installed on this version of CentOS – I tried.

Everything else seems good… so far. Kudos for all the work!

[WM: You forgot to run update-scripts and update-fixes. Once you do that, netconfig will be in place once again.]

Hi Ward, you and the piaf team have come out with a great product.

I have a system up and running and a trunk registering to les.net with no problems. When I add my Axvoice trunk with your sample code above, neither trunk is able to register. If I disable Axvoice, than the les.net trunk is able to connect.

Any Ideas?

[WM: This type issue is better addressed on the NV forums.]

Hi, PBX in a flash looks awesome, great work. I've got it setup in VMware Player on Windows XP, and its working well, except, when I call into voicemail it sounds like crap, very choppy. I'm guessing this has something to do with ztdummy and running on a virtual machine? Is there a work around? I ensured my ztdummy was setup properly as per your installation PDF. Thanks, - Alex [WM: There most certainly is a fix for the choppy sound. Be sure to check out all the good info in the Nerd Vittles forums.]

The instructions for VMWare on windows say you need to extract everything to c:pbxinaflash. what about on linux? can you just extract everything into any directory as long as all the files are in the same directory? [WM: If you mean VMware for Linux, I think it still needs to be in the /pbxinaflash directory on your server. You can post this on the forum if you have problems.]

Great work on the mondo backup script Tom! This is a killer app as far as I’m concerned.

Ward,

I tried going to "For the complete list of additions, see this message thread on the Nerd Vittles Forum" and ended up at a screen asking for a password.

Thanks,
