Is there anyone who could give me an answer to these questions, or is my questions too generalized? I am trying to completa a general IVR and I see Freeswitch definitely on the next gen path for this industry. Thanks Damon Brown wrote:

Hello all, As a newbee but expert in other nameless PBX's, I was wondering the following:

1. What approach in the xml config files you would use to create general mailboxes that multiple extensions have access too and need indicators for?

2. I was using the directory.lua example located in the wiki to create a directory and it works up to the pount of matching the extension. Once the caller presses confirm for the name and it returns to "no directories match your search". I know this should be to the author of that example, but I was hoping someone may have experience with it. I do have mod_lua it runs through most of the logic, the example I used was: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Examples_directory_lua

3. I would like to write a daemon that interfaces with freeswitch outside of the XML matching. For example, one that will connect to a DB, pick up a caller and send conference participants in based on their status. Is this possible or are do all scripts only run within the dialplan?

Thanks for your time in answering these in advance.
