This website has been created in order to assist others with trixbox CE, Elastix, and other Asterisk-based systems that use FreePBX. Documentations on this site include troubleshooting, tips and tricks, and more.

If you would like personal help, you may contact me via e-mail or via telephone. There is a charge for telephone assistance.

If you would like to submit documentation to this site, please e-mail me, and I will be more than welcome to post it here.

I am not responsible for any damages to your PBX system. However, none of my guides are posted here unless it has been tested and turned out to be successful, unless I specifically mention that a guide has not been tested yet.

Below you will find guides for the use of trixbox CE, Elastix, and other Asterisk-based systems that use FreePBX.

NOTE: Elastix users, and users who do not have the nano editor installed, please install the nano editor by typing yum isntall nano -y in SSH

NOTE: This website is specifically designed for trixbox CE systems. It is not guaranteed to work on other Asterisk-based systems, however, many scripts and information on this website will work and is useful regardless of the PBX software you are using
