I made an attempt this past weekend to get INOC-DBA setup on our Asterisk 
system and ran into lack of documentation and inaccurate/wrong 
documentation on the inoc-dba site.  Specifically I had/have no way of 
adding a phone because the ASNxxxxxxnn format for MAV address just results 
in an 'invalid MAC address' error message.  I'm also not quite clear on why 
there's not a 'asterisk users click here' instead because asterisk users 
don't need the config file.  I haven't had a chance to pose the question to 
the list and searching via google yielded very little information.
