Hi. I have a need to assign a variable in vars.xml with the value output from a system command (in this specific instance "hostname -s", but I'd like to have a generic solution for future use). How can I do that? Any suggestions are welcome, as is pointing at any documentation I've so far failed to find :) Thanks, Antony. -- Having been asked for a reference for this man, I can confirm that you will be very lucky indeed if you can get him to work for you.

Do it through environment.
<X-PRE-PROCESS cmd="env-set" data="var=$VAL"/>
We also have "exec-set".

So, that allows a FreeSwitch variable to have the value of an environment
variable?

That's not quite the same as running a command and assigning the result to a
variable, which is what I need.

Ah, now *that* looks like what I'm looking for - thanks :)
