asterisk users - Sep 2004 - no dial tone when dialing out on vonage

Hi,
    I'm trying to dial out on a vonage line connected to a zap channel 
using stuff like:

exten => 200,1,Dial(Zap/2/${EXTEN})
but it doesn't work - when i dial in the extension, i can see on a phone 
connected to the same line that it's gone active - but there's no 
dialtone.  also tried adding a wait period before accessing the line and
exten => _XXXXXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/2/${EXTEN})
to no avail.

what's goin on?

Thanks,
Imran

Looks to me like you are telling Asterisk to outpulse "200" on the
vonage line.

If I remember my vonage service correctly, everything (except 911) was
an 11-digit call.

Perhaps it'd look better as:

exten => _1NXXNXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/2/${EXTEN})
