− | === Things to know ===
| |
− | * The default root-password is "password".
| |
− | * Entering the VMware console is done by clicking on it. Leaving is done by pressing CTRL + Alt at the same time.
| |
− | * When opening the VMware configuration-file in VMware player, you probably get some warnings about the location of your CDrom drive. This can be ignored. (no CDrom is needed)
| |
− | * Using the latest version of VMware player, the hardware-detection will detect a change of network card. Please select "Keep configuration" and in the next screen enter the right IP-configuration (needed only once)
| |
− | * Each instance of VMware player running this version of Trixbox will take on average about 250 MB of RAM.
| |
− | * Each VMware image of this version of Trixbox needs about 1.66 GiB of hard disk space. This can increase up to a max. of 7.3 GiB (max size of virtual filesystem + 256 MiB VMEM-file) The VMware-images can be compressed for transport to about 570 - 600 MB

− | === Editors ===
| |
− | The config files of Asterisk are located in /etc/asterisk/
| |
− |
| |
− | Editing those files with the installed editor vi, is rather tedious. Therefore we installed Emacs to do the editing.
| |
− | Since Trixbox is based on CentOS, it is possible to use the CentOS RPM's to install Emacs.
| |
− |
| |
− | The 2 RPM's needed for Emacs are located at the following URL's:
| |
− |
| |
− | ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/CentOS/4.4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/emacs-common-21.3-19.EL.4.i386.rpm
| |
− | ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/os/Linux/distr/CentOS/4.4/os/i386/CentOS/RPMS/emacs-nox-21.3-19.EL.4.i386.rpm
| |
− |
| |
− | Using the program wget, it is possible to download these. After downloading, the RPM's can be installed with "''rpm -i''".
| |
− | We also created some smaller URL's, which is easier to type ;)
| |
− |
| |
− | mkdir install
| |
− | cd install
| |
− | wget http://turl.nl/99
| |
− | wget http://turl.nl/100
| |
− | rpm -i emacs-common-21.3-19.EL.4.i386.rpm
| |
− | rpm -i emacs-nox-21.3-19.EL.4.i386.rpm
| |
− |
| |
− | The name of the emacs-executable is "emacs-nox"
| |
− |
| |
− | === Connecting with the Trixbox-shell ===
| |
− | It is possible to use the Trixbox shell via VMware (player), but this has one mayor disadvantage. You can't use cut 'n paste.
| |
− | However, it is also possible to interface over a SSH connection, using e.g. [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html Putty].
| |
− | The IP-adress of the Trixbox installation is given at the login (using VMware).
| |
− |
| |
− | The standard root-password is "password".
