Hi Everyone, Sorry in advance if this not the correct place to ask this question, feel free to point me somewhere more appropriate to ask. We have an Asterisk 1.2.7.1 server (about a year old version of Asterisk @ Home with FreePBX) running the phone system for our small office (roughly 15 extensions). I'm trying to hide a couple of extensions from the app_directory generated company directory. I found some information about adding the "hidefromdir=yes" option to the user's entry in voicemail.conf, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. I'm a little unclear as to whether or not that option is something native to Asterisk or if it comes from one of the external applications. If it is built in, is my version too old to have this feature? Am I totally on the wrong track and is there another way to accomplish this? Thanks, -Jesse
Is it possible that you are adding this, and then freePBX is overwriting your file, in effect, taking out your addition? IIRC, the newer versions of freePBX have the ability to hide users. I wouldn't bet any money on that recollection, though.

If you are using freepbx, I think freepbx actually simulates the
app_directory, so you may have to do something in the gui to fix it,
or they may not have such an option.
Hope this helps.

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is:
How do
you spend it?
