Hi all, Just thought I'd pass along some pointers when outdialing with Voicetronix's OpenLine4 card. I was having a tough time dialing out from *, it probably has something to do with chan_vpb.c not waiting to hear the dialtone before telling the card to dial. A quick fix was to insert a "," in the dialstring telling the card to pause before dialing. However when the "," was used in the dialstring, the Dial application interpreted this as a command separator and was screwing things up. What I did was to define OUTDIAL=vpb/1-1/,,5555555555 and used exten => 555,s,1,Dial(${OUTDIAL}) to place the call. Works like a charm. Hopefully this bit of info may help other VPB users out there. Cheers, Faiz
