It has been a while since I last mentioned Asterix and my attempts to get it installed and working on an old machine I had at home. I finally managed to get it installed properly last night on an old machine I had kicking around. This time I was using version 0.9 of asterix@home which seemed to install OK, albeit a bit slowly maybe - that may have been caused by the machine spec though rather than any particular problem with Asterix. It did not take long to configure an extension via AMP (Asterix Management Portal) - a web based configuration GUI. I tried to configure a soft phone on my PC based on a “best guess” method of configuration but that failed miserably so it looks like I will be RTFM at some point for that one. Overall it looks like Asterix has got some pretty cool functionality but I will post more about this when I get to have a proper play around with it.
