Wiki HomeThe player can be found at http://www.vmware.com/download/player/
Our objective here is to create a trixbox system that can be used as:
- A sandbox to play in before puting stuff in production
- A fallback system in the production gets broken
- A general linux system to look at other linux apps of interest here, in particular gnucash, which requires the installation of gnome
This later is not generally advisable on a pbx system, so caveat emptor.
This page logs what I've done to turn trixbox into a general linus system, accessible from the LAN:
- Download the player, install, reboot
- Download the vmware image, unzip.
- Start the VMware player and select the image.
- Log into the root, pw=password
- Disable the firewall on the host os — Not sure, but think this is because my firewall doesn't support gateway mode.
- trixbox-update.sh
- trixbox-update.sh update
- reboot
- reboot — a second time seems to sort out the broken ethernet card
- yum -y groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"
- Xorg -configure — this seems to blackout my console, but the macine is still running, so carry on with...
- reboot — ... to sort that out
- edit xorg.conf.new, find /dev/mouse and replace it with /dev/input/mouse0
- cp xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
- vmware-config-tools.pl — and select your host screen resolution
- startx — should start gnome
- Many packages are not available from the default respositories so, under /etc/yum.repos.d create a file karan.repo with the following contents:
name=CentOS.Karan.Org-EL$releasever - Stable
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://centos.karan.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-karan.org.txt

- Get freenx, the remote x-window manager: yum install freenx
- Get the nx client for Windows from http://www.nomachine.com/download.php
- Install and configure it as per http://fedoranews.org/contributors/rick_stout/freenx/ — I had terrible problems getting this working for no obvious reason: it all sudenly started working
- Anything else you need can now be installed (gnucash in my case, but that's outside the scope of this entry)

Re: trixbox pass
Are you using VMWare Trixbox2.2?
If yes, pls try this
login: root

Nice to share with you

trixbox pass
I have downloaded the VMWare version of trixbox, in http://www.trixbox.org/downloads, and when the OS is booted appears the login screen like this:
asterisk1 login:
I put any combinations login options, like:
login :root
pass: password
login :root
pass: passw0rd (that's a zero 0)
login :root
pass: passwd
login :root
pass: vmwarez
login :maint
pass: vmwarez
login :maint
pass: password
login :maint
pass: passw0rd (that's a zero 0)
login :maint
pass: passwd
and nothing, nothing works,
any ideia?
thanx
I can't access to the internet
I cant run the "trixbox-update.sh" then.
I tried to set the ethernet to "nat", "bridged" and "host only", but none of them allowed me run the script
