    On FreeBSD 4.10-Stable, I've used gatekeeper for ohphone/openphone,
    currently use SER and started playing with Asterisk to free up the RH90
    system. I have kphone running from ports as well (but needed a slight
    source code change to startup for me.)

    Versions: ser currently is 0.8.12, asterisk is 0.9.0_1 and gatekeeper
    is/was 2.0.5_2.

    SER is fantastic, and is well supported. I've stopped using gatekeeper
    since leaving Avaya, as I no longer have a need to touch H.323 anymore.
      From the comment above, it looks like it still works just fine. From
    what I read, there is a lot of work going on for Asterisk on BSD. There
    is a Asterisk-BSD mailing list available if you are interested. See
    http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-bsd for details.

    SER & * work together just fine. I use * for my PSTN-GW ("media
    gateway"), but currently on RH90 until I have the time to migrate to
    BSD. I expect no problems. (If I had a free PCI slot, this would
    already be done.)
