6 PhilMurray 15 ; __Loop and Ground and Kewl, Oh my!__: In New Zealand, Telecom uses Loop-Start on all PSTN lines except on business lines where you've explicitly requested Ground-Start (or Earth-Start as Telecom call it). So if you're using Zaptel with Asterisk set your signalling to fxsls or fxols.

3 CraigBox 18 ; __Command 'showparkedcalls' already registered (or something close enough)__ : Remove 'res_parking.so' from /usr/libs/asterisk/modules - do NOT simply rename it - Asterisk seems to try to load ALL modules!
19
20 ; __I get an error message "Ouch ... error while writing audio data Broken pipe" from Asterisk__ : This error is from mpg123, not asterisk. When asterisk dies, mpg123 complains. The error that killed * is either above that message or available using GDB if it is a segfault etc. You probably have a configuration error.

27 !DNS
28 Be VERY carefull with your settings and setup when using any form of [DNS] (try to avoid using [DNS] if you can). The [SIP] stack is written in such a manner as to cause it to lock solid and hang if it is unable to resolve a [DNS] entry for any reason whatsoever. This includes using multiple entries for hints on extension definitions.
29 such as:
30 <verbatim>
31 exten => 600,hint,SIP/600&IAX2/600
32 </verbatim>
