Unless you are in the middle of the sticks, you should have a users group near by that will probably lend you a hand in getting the OS up and running. Then the fun with asterisk will begin. You may be able to call on the same people to help you out again. If you can get help, you might pull off the 30-40 hours mark, but I would suspect quite a bit longer. Also you should become better acquainted with asterisk before you actually purchase your equipment. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
