want to keep your current analog lines for incoming calls, but
install 8 IP Phones and use VOIP for outgoing calls. You know
enough to set up a DSL router but don't want to rely on some phone
course available using regular Asterisk configuration techniques.
Easy Asterisk has been written to be compatible with regular Asterisk
-conf-file style configuration. Just leave the conf file lines with
+conf file configuration. Just leave the conf file lines with
"easy-asterisk" comments alone. The Asterisk conf files
extensions.conf and sip.conf are directly modified by Easy Asterisk,
but changes are limited to the "easy-asterisk" lines.

+x86 Installation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. You need a web server, Asterisk and some sort of Perl installed
(very basic Perl installation is fine). Configure your web server
- to run CGIs (.sh and .pl) from /your/web/server/root (lighttpd
- config instructions below).
+ to run CGIs (.sh and .pl) from /www (lighttpd config instructions
+ below).
+
+ The process below places the web files in /www, you may like to
+ place the files somewhere else like /www/asterisk. One of the
+ files is named index.html so beware of conflicts of you have other
+ files on your web server.
2. Login as root to install the Easy Asterisk files:
# cd ~
# svn co https://freetel.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freetel/easy-asterisk-gui
# cp easy-asterisk-gui/etc/asterisk/* /etc/asterisk
- # cp easy-asterisk-gui/cgi-bin/* /your/web/server/root
+ # cp easy-asterisk-gui/cgi-bin/* /www
+ # cd /etc/asterisk
+ # cp extensions.conf extensions.conf.def
+ # cp sip.conf sip.conf.def
# mv etc/asterisk/users.conf etc/asterisk/users.conf.bak
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The final step above may not be required on your machine if you
- don't have a users.conf.
+ don't have a users.conf. The .def copies are required by the
+ "reset defaults" feature on the admin screen.
3. Switch off the internal Asterisk web server by editing
/etc/asterisk.httpd.conf. Make sure the enabled line reads like
exit

-# set password CGI
