I see that PBX Manager support Asterisk 1.6 on new installs now...
What kind of gotchas are there if I have an existing PBX Manager installation using 1.4 and I want to upgrade to 1.6? Will PBX Manager update any of the config files that it created itself from 1.4 or do I need to manually update anything? (I assume it's a given that I'll have to update some of my own scripts and so forth that are outside of PBX Manager's control).

We don't use any agents for anything yet, no call queues. :) Just IVR, lots of extensions, and conference calling (meetme), mostly.
Any other gotchas?

Upgrading to Asterisk 1.6
Thanks for the heads up on agentcallbacklogin. Any idea on if this will be replaced with another app that will support this capability? I also tried to add the valet parking app to fix MT parking in a previous post, but quickly found that the procedure I used on 1.4 MT wasn't working for me anymore. I don't even know where the source is anymore after installing the new ISO with 1.6. I would also like to kow how to update from 1.6.0.1 to the a newer release. Think this is done with yum update but don't know exactly how or if I should. I am just testing/learning on my Lab MT so I can take chances I would not do with a production system. Obviously I have a lot to learn.
Thanks in advance for your help or advice.
well as far as the
well as far as the pbxmanager interface is concerned you will have to add the SIP/exten channels directly to the queues. As far as a replacement for agentcallbacklogin they came up with QueueAddMember

I really appreaciate all your assistance.
be aware that agentcallbacklogin doesnt work, so if you use agents you need to find another way.
