I had a look around on the wiki for;

"freeswitch console backgrounded"
"freeswitch telnet"
"freeswitch console telnet"

I read through the FAQ [1] but no luck, in particular [2], and found a similar thread [3] with no one mentioning of fs_cli in that thread.

Another search on Google for "freeswitch console" came up, so this was google-fu error on my part :)

Either way, I've now edited wiki page [2] (FAQs) to indicate this feature, as that was the first page that came up in my searches.

Thanks again guys

Cal

I'm always using fs_cli, since I start freeswitch with an init script / background it.
How did you miss fs_cli? Where should it have been on the wiki, etc?
