On my two-year old FreePBX install, I handled remote phones (all Aastra) but starting the ftpd and pointing to /tftpboot as the root. I created an account with long login names and passwords and the phones ftp into the server and get their configuration data. Works great.
Now I’m trying BETA-6.12.65-15 with Asterisk 12 and an Endpoint license and want to make sure that is still a good way to go, that there isn’t a better/easier way.
Any input would be welcome.
