A client has asked that our asterisk installation leverage their large

about putting the voicemail messages onto a Samba share (on their file
servers). Any pros/cons to this? Does network/samba latency create
choppiness?

I think a lot of that would depend on *how* you put the files there.

smbclient? cifs mount?

I would say write them locally, and then use a looper script to push
them to the other server... though on reflection, Asterisk might not be
happy with that.

How about using rsync or FTP along with the Samba share? Just a
thought, no real though or testing involved.

Thanks,
