Scott,
I have been lurking for years on the email list. 18 years as a Cub
Scout leader with meeting on Thursday nights :-). The few times you
wandered off Thursdays conflicted with other meetings.
I would like to use VoIP on a FreeBSD box as well. I am not 100%
comfortable putting Asterix/FreeSwitch on my Asus 500gp router running
TomatoUSB (Linux based). I run 1 (soon to be 2) low power FreeBSD
machines on Via C7 processors. Been thinking of FreeSwitch on the one
doing backup duties. The first had hardware problems but I managed to
get it back up and running but not before I put together a new one. 1st
order of business is to setup the new one with ZFS then migrate the
services from the UFS old one before giving the old one a ZFS upgrade on
new disks. Then I would like to get my VoIP line working somehow on the
old one which will do ZFS stream replication.
I cut my teeth on a PDP-44 running Unix System 7 way before using that
new fangled Linux :-). I have fond memories of running a VAX 780 with
BSD 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 and I still prefer BSD for servers. I have been
looking at PCBSD to replace my Fedora workstation -- could not get the
liveCD working on the workstation (only a short attempt but that was the
time available).
I would be interested in working together on VoIP for FreeBSD if only by
email.

It would be nice to have more than two people show up. I'm beginning to think BSD is dying, at least the local group anyway. I was wondering if anyone has played with running a VoIP server on BSD? I have a few boxes that run an embedded linux that handles VoIP calls and I was thinking it would be interesting to see if it could be done with an embedded BSD, kind of like pfsense for firewalls.
Discussion welcome over a glass of your favourite.
Cheers,
Scott
