[asterisk-users] Detect incoming fax on PSTN and route to fax machine on DADHI extension?
I'm running an AsteriskNow V1.7.1 with both a PSTN connection and fax machine. Both are connected to a DAHDI board. I'd like to route incoming PSTN fax calls to the extension of the fax machine and process non-fax calls through different dialplan.logic. What's the best way to go about doing this? I've looked into Fax for Asterisk, bit I'm not sure that I want it or NVFax detection. Any pointers to share?

If you find a way to work around this, please, do not hesitate to share.
