Hi, there is a feature, which I would like to use with asterisk, and I assume it exists. Unfortunately I don't know how to say it in english. In german it's "einen Ruf heranholen". It means: The phone set of my collegue is ringing, and I'm hearing the ringing. I know, that my collegue is not at his desk, and now I want to answer the call at my phone (instead of running to my collegue's desc to answer at his phone). I assume there is a key code I could type at my phone to "fetch" that call to my phone. Maybe there is some mechanism to grant that permission to me in some conf.file. Thanks for any hints or key words, where I can find explained that feature! Roger.
