asterisk users - Sep 2010 - Setting 'fname_base' variable doesn't affect 'automon' result file.

Hello List,


Maybe I'm mistaken, but, shouldn't the 'fname_base' variable of 
'Monitor' application affect the file name generated through
'automon'
feature?

I initialized this variable with a value as follows:
Set(fname_base=auto-${CALLERID(num)}-${EXTEN}-${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)})


a. Should I use 'fname_base' in uppercase (FNAME_BASE)? or...
b. Is this variable independent of the 'automon' feature?



Thanks in advice,


PS.

Where did you get the idea that fname_base is even a variable for you
to set?  It's always been a parameter to the Monitor application.
