convert to MP3 in real time on a telecom system? Surely you jest :-). The cpu time required for that (especially on smaller systems) would be MOST prohibitive.
Therefore, its *really* designed to have a queue of native format messages (and log files, also) get copied to a larger server on a periodic basis and let the
large server with big CPU's handle the MP3 crunching.

Thanks to everyone who replied.

 

I've found it now and it works a treat!

 

Are there any other options I can use with that command, for example, to change to MP3 format or something?

 

If not, no problem - its working well and seems to require about 8Kb / sec of disc space, which equates to almost 700 hours for a 20Gb partition..

 

Cool!  Thanks,

Rodger,

The 'locate' command can be used to find it.
It's in /usr/src/EVB/ast_base/asterisk-1.4.21.2/configs/rpt.conf.sample
You're right that we should make an obvious link to it in the web
based documentation

73,

Steve
