asterisk users - Jul 2003 - picking up a ringing extension

Hello, 

We are using asterisk 0.4.0 on debian sid with Cisco 7960 and ATA186
phones.

All sip entries have:

callgroup=1
pickupgroup=1

However I am unable to remotely pickup a ringing phone using *8#. I get
fast busy tone. Is there some flag to add in extensions.conf ?

Thanks in advance,

the exten is *8 only.
didn't know if 0.4.0 has already that features on sip .
It's better to use latest cvs version.

Matteo.

To pick up a call that rings someone elses phone that is in the callgroup
as your pickupgroup.
