Dialpad

[Brent Harding]

Is there any free pc to phone that really works in linux? I have heard of myfreeld, but microsoft hasn't made netmeeting for linux, and if there was, how does the link on the page trigger the server to dial a requested number? The most I know about shell scripting is to read two responses and fill them in to a sentence, I made a weird one that asked for a favorite kind of dog, and what the dog liked to do, and it filled it in to a sentence with the responses. I got knowledge of that from the slackware adduser script and the read function, and how it refered the responses, but it doesn't really check that an answer was or wasn't put in.
