            Oh, so if it is "in the drive", you are just missing the mount point:

            mkdir -p /media/cdrom

            You are trying to mount to a directory that you haven't created yet.

                DIR? Linux command for listing a directory is ls

                  You know, since you are on VMware, there is no need to install Elastix onto something else. Just pop in the Elastix CD and install. It's that easy. Elastix is an appliance. For a Linux newbie, trying to install Elastix as a repo onto your own Linux install is way more work that necessary. Treat it as an appliance instead of as an application. Mount the ISO, reboot, let it install everything itself.

                    A lab environment? I wish I had those luxuries! 😞 It would be nice to play around with some VMs. I know that you can contact your Local Microsoft Evangelist (the ones who used to put on the local TechNets) and they'll set you up with something like 3 months of free Azure service and some special deal if you want to continue it. Just a thought for anyone, like myself, who does not have a budget for hardware and software.

                      I'd actually recommend just starting over with a new VM that is capable of running RHEL 64-bit (pretty sure that is how you must mark it in VMWare) and boot from the ISO. That is the easiest way to do it in my opinion.

                        Yes, 64bit Linux is all that is needed. Elastix CD handles the rest.

                            OK, elastix is setup. pretty painless.

                            Internal extension calling is setup and working, pretty painless.

                            dialing in from out and out from in....not working. i've got a trunk setup and in/out routes setup and assigned to extension...bah any advice?

                              When you say not working, can you be more specific? Is it 30 seconds and then the call dies, "all circuits are busy now," or something else entirely?

                                Check the FreePBX status screen or the Elastix status screen and make sure the trunk really is connected.

                                  all circuits are busy now. in a very smooth voice 😉

                                    looks like it could be internet connectivity issue. though from the cli i can ping out via IP and domain name.

                                        Likely trunks aren't working in both directions. Do you have a NAT firewall?

                                            OK, so i've now got connectivity but trunks still aren't connected correctly.
