Install Vicidial from scratch on Debian Wheezy with xtables Geoip and 1000 Hz Realtime Kernel
Tom Barthel`s Vicidial on Debian Wheezy 7.5 Scratch install
This Tutorial is testet on a 5 Dollar KVM VPS on http://www.vultr.com/?ref=6804483
Vultr is great for testing. you can set up a Vicidial server from scratch or
Vicibox in shortest time. On 4 Continents total of 12 cities.
For production use, please use a dedicated server, for example,
of www.ovh.com My customer number is bt81421-ovh you can specify
when ordering., then I get a small commission
First you need a netinstall Disk from Debian:
http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/7.5.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-7.5.0-amd64-netinst.iso
after Installing a minimal system make:
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
next install realtime Kernel and Kernel Headers:
apt-get install -y linux-image-rt-amd64 linux-headers-rt-amd64
remove the old kernel
apt-get remove -y linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 linux-headers-3.2.0-4-amd64
update-grub ##reconfigure the bootloader for the new Kernel
reboot ## start the sytstem with the new Kernel
uname -r ## check the new Kernel is loaded >>3.2.0-4-rt-amd64
Install Xtables Geoip Firewall:
apt-get install xtables-addons-common libtext-csv-xs-perl unzip
mkdir -p /usr/share/xt_geoip
cd /usr/lib/xtables-addons
./xt_geoip_dl
./xt_geoip_build -D /usr/share/xt_geoip *.csv
reboot
make some iptables rules for xtables geoip:
iptables -I INPUT 1 -m state --state NEW -m geoip ! --source-country DE,US -j DROP ## alow Traffic only from Germany and US
iptables -I INPUT 1 -s 127.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT ## allow internel Traffic
iptables -I INPUT 1 -s 77.72.174.132 -j ACCEPT ## allow Traffic from Voipprovider
Now save the rules:
iptables-save > /root/geoip.fw
Make a Entry in rc.local for Start the geip Firewall at System Start:
nano /etc/init.d/rc.local
Append the line:
/sbin/iptables-restore < /root/geoip.fw
save the rc.local file and reboot the System
after reboot show the rules:
/sbin/iptables -L -v -n
Now lets install the Asterisk and Vicidial prerequisites:
wget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-4squeeze14_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-4squeeze14_amd64.deb ## The package not exist on Wheezy, only on Squeeze

Installing Asterisk
Any time you upgrade the Linux kernel you must recompile/install dahdi for the new kernel.
Asterisk must be compiled with dahdi support.
Note: The install MUST be done in the following order:
Minor note: dahdi-linux-complete-current.tar.gz and libpri-1.4-current.tar.gz may contain an updated version than what I am currently using, therefore the directory names may be different than shown below.

* Confirm DAHDI works properly.

I am going to install the latest 2.x SVN trunk which happens to be version 2.8 at the time of writing this guide
mkdir /usr/src/astguiclient
cd /usr/src/astguiclient
svn checkout svn://svn.eflo.net:3690/agc_2-X/trunk
cd trunk
perl install.pl
You will have to define various things like IP address of the server and FTP username/password.
It will also ask you where is the web root, use /var/www/
Leave the other login settings as-is unless you already know how to update the database and other asterisk config files.
Import sample data
Login to mysql to run some commands

One thing is missing in this installation about ip_relay.

apt-get install libc6-i386

Use this command to install.
