Apologies if this messages appears more than once, somehow sending it via gmane's nntp-server doesn't work as expected. Been trying to send this message for 2 days now, without success so far... --- Hello, I'm exploring the capablities of Asterisk and must say I'm really impressed! However, I don't need most of the options, but can't figure out the things that appear simple to me... We share our 3 phonelines with 20 users (students). There's a (pre-WWII) ISDN-PBX which some of the students want to keep. Since only 5 handsets can be attached I thought Asterisk would be a perfect solution for the remaining 15 students. So far I managed to get things running, but if I configure extensions.conf like exten => s,1,Answer exten => s,2,DigitTimeout(10) exten => s,3,ResponseTimeout(20) exten => s,4,Background(vm-extension) the old PBX users can nolonger answer the line, since Asterisk answers it. Is it possible to answer an incoming call by dialing (eg.) an * (or dial 8)? (also possible to broadcast caller ID without answering???)

It would be great if it is possible (by dialing 8) Asterisk picks up a ringing line and puts it through to the accepting softphone.
