We had an open meeting this day. <\/p>\n
Michael Tanenhaus gave a quick overview on how to setup Asterisks<\/a>. In summary, there are two parts to configure for asterisks to function. There is the ‘\/etc\/dahdi’ stuff which configures the card, previously known as ‘zapper’. The ‘\/etc\/asterisks’ stuff holds the extensions and the software configuration for the phone routing. Michael said that “the best way to understand asterisks [ the \/etc\/asterisks part ] is that everything is an extension.” Nick had the following question: Dave Biel had a question in regards to the difference between 64bit and 32 bit machines.<\/p>\n Question: What is the difference between 32bit and 64bit.<\/p>\n Dave Dodge responded: “Makes some things faster.” There was more talk about the grub boot loader and accessing the sound devices with \/dev\/dsp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" We had an open meeting this day.

\nHe said Bernstien’s startup stuff uses this. Michael did a google search and found that monit <\/a>does what Sun Service manager does.<\/p>\n
\n “more registrars and pointers to work with.”
\n “32bit is limited addressing 4GB per process.”
\n “64bit will let you address multiple 4GB groups of RAM.”
\nWikipedia has a pretty good page on the difference.x86-64bit<\/a><\/p>\n
