definitely check out freepbx.org, that's a free front end for asterisk. I believe it's called nerd vittles or something like that. I think that will do what you need it to do. Very good on the network projects. I've started two ISP companies and have sense sold them. I've also provided tier 3 engineering support for several carriers and presently am the chief network engineer for the largest provider of out of home TV content in the US and Mexico. I take care of about 7000 locations as well as our enterprise network services. I have direct hands on experience with everything from the old Cisco 25000 up to and incoluding the newer 7600 and ASR platforms. Also work a lot with their ASA hardware. I am completely a Juniper fan now though working a lot with the SRX products, e4200 switches and M series routers. IOS is so limiting in comparison. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Billy L.

Well, I use to manage a network for the local Emergency Management and E-911 center. I am pretty good at troubleshooting most network issues. When I took the class I just finished to brush up my skills I used the Cisco 1841 and 2650T switches. As far as my asterisk goes. I am running it on a dedicated cPanel/WHM server. I have the main parts working now with a demo of the web interface from Third Lane. However, I think it costs way too much and if I can get another web interface to install in conjuction with cPanel that would be great. I made several calls on my system and monitored system resources and it seems my server will handle the task just fine. I have a general idea of the files but I want a better graphical sense of things just to keep it less confusing as I am still somewhat visual. Any ideas? Best Regards, Billy L.

So I'm an asterisk user and got tons of help from this list and from the mobile access list. The big deal is to learn the extensions.conf file and the different configurations for the services. Google for example extensions.conf and you should get some great examples. Let me know if you have any specific questions. What kind of routing and switching do you work on? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Billy L.

Go to http://www.driverpacks.net Download the base and install it. Next, download the mass storige driver pack which contains drivers for most of the sata controlers in existance. Copy the unextracted file into the driverpacks folder that installing the base created. Copy your xp disk someware writable and run the base. You can more or less skip through the screens; just point the base to your xp install and tick the box for mass storige. After that, instead of clicking next or > as it sometimes shows up as, just click slipstream. Note that this will overwrite your winnt.sif, so make sure that you have a backup copy - the only important thing that it does is adds a entry in the gui run once section which you can just copy & paste into the original sif but it's not really needed. Make an iso from the modified xp install and burn it to cd. You should now be able to see the sata drive. However, to put a spanner in the works, the xp installer can have a bit of a stress on some newer chipsets / sata controlers even if you have slipstreamed the drivers. If your finding that your getting blue screens in the install, go into the bios, look for something called ahci and enable it. Hth. On 22/05/2010, Jackie McBride <abletec@gmail.com> wrote:
Also, I forgot to mention that if u have the drivers, download them to a folder on your hd, then use NLite for your unattended.

Frank, get some sighted help, go into bios, & make sure that ide mode is set as the type of emulation. Since bioses vary widely, I can't tell u precisely where to go--you'll just have to poke around a bit.

I think you will have to go through the vendor of the SATA controller to do that. SATA was sorta new when XP came out.

Hi all I am trying to do an unattended XP Pro install onto an Lenovo T61 and the Windows setup program does not recognize the SATA hard drive. Is there any generic SATA drivers I can get that I can slipstream into my install CD to get it to work? Thanks Frank
