Hi again, as I wrote before, I'm new to Asterisk. And so, many many new questions pop up ..... For example: I have here a very small telephony system. We have only 5 (or so) extensions. (4 phones, 1 fax). So I wonder if there is disadvantage if we use only 1 digit extensions ("1" for boss, "2" for shop, "4" for the fax ...) I think I can remember something from the "Asterisk-TFOT" book saying that one must not use 1-digit extension numbers. But I can't remember that very well and can't find it in the book any more.... Regards, norbert

Extensions must be shorter than 80 characters long, and you shouldn?t use single-character extensions for your own use, as they?re reserved.) ... </quote> O.k. - This answers my first question ("if there is disadvantage if we use only 1 digit extensions"). But what for are single-character extensions "reserved" ? Thanks, Norbert
