Sorry – I have not been following earlier posts on this but I remember there was discussion about hanging on sendmail last year:

http://ohnosec.org/pipermail/app_rpt-users/2012-January/003794.html

but assuming you got past that and you are looking at the login prompt (on a local console), then just log in as root with the root password.

Once logged on, you can see if asterisk is running with:

service asterisk status

It should come back with something like:

asterisk (pid  22389) is running...

If for some reason it is not running, you can start it with:

service asterisk start

then go to the CLI with: 

asterisk -r

PS – the network information is usually in

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0

Okay,  

I made the system config changes and then added port forward for 222.
Could not find where to set the IP address other than the DNS/Router.  I believe it still has DHCP.

I thought it was hung up on Starting SendMail but it now shows K7AZ LOGIN:

URIx Green Light is no longer blinking.    Is there a “Normal Centos” command list specific to AllStar?

Thanks,
