asterisk users - Jun 2006 - IAX2 Dial command

Hello

I am trying to use this command to dial an IAX2 channel, with a supplied
context, etc:

Dial(IAX2/myiax2peer/${EXTEN}@thecontextimtryingtodial)

This fails, with an authentication failed message while:
Dial(IAX2/myiax2peer/${EXTEN}) succeeds with out a hitch.

Why is this???

Regards
Jon

Did You try to specify extension i context ?

Dial(IAX2/myiax2peer/${EXTEN}@thecontextimtryingtodial/extension)

[iaxhost1-out]
exten => 99205,1,Dial(IAX2/value3:value4@value1/99105)
