So it's that time again. I am currently putting together my first alpha build of ViciBox Redux v.3. Here are some of the goodies that will be available:

- OpenSuSE v.11.3
- Kernel v.2.6.34
- MySQL v.5.1.46
- Dahdi v.2.3.0
- Sangoma Wanpipe v.3.5.14
- Sangoma VoiceTime v.3.0.9
- 3rd Gen Lead Loader
- Multi-Server Installer: DB, Web, Dialer (Maybe archive)
- Separate 64-bit DataBase ONLY install CD (Will NOT install a dialer)
- Cleaner installer (hopefully)


If you have a wishlist saved up somewhere post it here. I will consider adding it if it makes sense within the scope of this project.

is phpMyAdmin already in?

and htop?

phpMyAdmin is already there. I added htop.

Thanks. I'd ask for Webmin, but i don't want you to blow a gasket.

Naa, you will be on your own for WebMin. It's easy enough to install though.

Yep. I got addicted to it from my First Server.

Installed on everything since (lost count!)

Wow, multi-server installer..... you will be many people's hero! Adding archive server to that will be really cool. (Using VSFTPD as FTP server?)

I second William's recommendation..... adding Webmin as standard can do no harm.

I'll have to see how it goes. Since the archive server is kind of an outside piece of the puzzle in terms of ViciDial operating successfully (as compared to the DB, Web, Dialer), it's a much lower priority. It is on the list for to-do's, but it's at the bottom.

I'll let you know how it goes.

actually if you switch to scp (sftp, ftp over ssh ...) for the transfer of the files, there is no "installation" required except creating and copying the ssh pre-auth key (and creating directories for file storage that are web accessible, i suppose, for the recordings). since ftp no longer has to be installed, the actual machine can be any of the machines in the system already.

and transfer is secure.

a couple clients had requested this before so we had to build it. (those who hate non-secure transfers and refused to use ftp)

That is not something specific to ViciBox. If you want to submit your SCP/SFTP script to Matt he can look at it for possible inclusion in ViciDial.

yep, just too busy.

and the revisions are too easy (unlike ftp, scp does not require logging in during the script, it just sends the file ... but you must create a pre-auth key in advance or it asks for a pwd and hangs).

but the changes to the script were so simple it was scary. we always just replace the ftp copy with scp copy and *poof*
