Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk - first impressions
> I'm still a newbie in Asterisk, just yesterday installed it for home
use
(so> I can call home while travelling). Using AVM A1 (BT Speedway) ISDN card.
> Anyway, I find it very hard to locate supporting information for Asterisk.
> User's Handbook is still a draft, this mailing list is not easily
> searchable, and any info out on Usenet is scarce. I spent some 30mins just
> trying to find out naming convention for ISDN4Linux channels!

> My home Asterisk is now functioning, but I still got some minor quirks to

> 1. SIP softphone provides "Ringing" indication when I call
another SIP

"Trying"
> until called party picks up.

> 2. The |r option to Dial() always hungs up after half-a-second. This
happens> with all types of channels, tried with Modem, SIP and IAX. I thought this
> option was meant to provide "Ringing" indication to caller?

> 3. Couldn't find out how to perform an action when extension goes
off-hook,> before any digits are dialed. I'd like a specific extension to dial
> predefined number as soon as it goes off-hook (I'll have MGCP hardphone
for> which I'll want to use this).
