Asterisk in container with Debian stable

Below is an example of how to install Asterisk into OpenVZ VE based on debian stable aka. "sarge":

$ apt-get install asterisk

$ nano /etc/defaults/asterisk

change:

RUNASTERISK=no -> yes
AST_REALTIME=yes -> no (for realtime, you need

$ /etc/init.d/asterisk start

modify the config files for asterisk, and done!

if you need capi or/and zaptel/zaphfc:

  • for capi: you need the /dev files on you hw-node and vps:
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 68, 0 Jan 3 2006 /dev/capi20
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 68, 1 Jan 3 2006 /dev/capi20.00
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 68, 2 Jan 3 2006 /dev/capi20.01
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 68, 3 Jan 3 2006 /dev/capi20.02
[...]

/* if the files doesn' exist use mknod for creating it*/

and in your vps config add for directly access:

DEVICES="c:68:0:rw, c:68:1:rw, c:68:2:rw"
  • for zaptel/zaphfc:
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 0 Jan 4 2006 ctl
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 1 Jan 4 2006 1
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 2 Jan 4 2006 2
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 3 Jan 4 2006 3
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 4 Jan 4 2006 4
[...]
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 253 Jan 4 2006 timer
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 255 Jan 4 2006 pseudo
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 196, 254 Jan 4 2006 channel

/* if the files doesn' exist use mknod for creating it*/

and in your vps config
