asterisk users - Nov 2003 - IAX clients and the flash button

Hi guys
As usual I am playing around with IAX soft clients.  I was wondering with 
the various IAX clients, IAX client, DIAX, etc how's one park calls, 
transfer calls, etc since there is no flash key?  Is there something I 
must do in the iax.conf or is it something I must do with the individual 
clients?  Also, is it very difficult to use musiconhold with the IAX 
software clients?
Thanks a lot for any ideas, suggestions, feedback.
AJ

With DIAX you can transfer using '#' key. Then transfer the call to 701
You will be able to park by transfering to 701 (or whatever number you have
defined). It works.
You do not need Flash key for a soft phone.

Nothing.

MOH works too. Have you tried???

Please give me your feedback with DIAX regarding those "issues".

Your right that you can transfer with the # key. But due to allot of systems
needing the # we have disabled it here in our Asterisk system.  The # key is
used for pagers and other calls.  That is why we would like to get a flash key!

By the way the sound is better with DIAX then with Xten lite!  Great job
can't wait for your updates!
