I have a _very_ specific situation where I need queues to work in a very specific manner - I need the queue to only accept one call at a time, even though several phones are attached to it. My memory tells me that queues might have even worked this way in the distant past (pre 1.0)...but I am willing to be mistaken. Is this even remotely possible? PaulH

I have been discussing an asterisk solution with a company that has a custom written dialogic based solution. The issue is that their dialogic solution can read callerid from incoming calls, even if the callerid is blocked. I have read before that Asterisk can do this, and they want me to make sure that their new system will be able to do this. A quick poke around inside the zaptel source code

Hi, I explain what I want to do.. All the operators share their phones. The number of the operator isn't constant, so it's possible that two operators share all the phones. They need to move all around, so they pick up the first phone they find. If there are only few operator is very annoying for them to ear the other phones ringing while they are at the phone! So I'dd like to limit

Hi, I am trying to implement the callback feature of our old phone system. This feature may go by a different name in asterisk? It worked as follows. If phone A called phone B and it was BUSY, you press a button to enable a callback. User A is free to continue work or make other calls. What this meant is that when both phones became free, phone A would ring, on answer it would call phone B

When agent tries to transfer a phone call (*2 - att transfer) he hangs up. Why? When a phone call isn't from queue then att transfer works fine. In features conf I have *1 for recording, *2 for att transfer and #1 for blind. In queue blind transfer works. For disconnect I have #0. I guess that * is somewhere defined as for hang-up the call, but where? I can't find it anywhere. Any help

Does anybody know of any IP phones (ideally SIP based) that have interfaces to plug into a pro audio system (eg for phone interviews). Something can probably be hacked up with a headset connector or the 1/8" jacks on a 7970 but I'm wondering if there's something better out there. Thanks, Julien

Hi guys, I've been using a Polycom IP 301 for a couple of weeks now and find that it's extremely slow for configuring. For instance, it takes several minutes to boot up, apply any changes via the web interface takes at least a minute, etc. Is this normal behaviour? Is there anything that can be done about it? Thanks, -- Nick e: nick.hoffman@altcall.com p: +61 7 5591 3588 f: +61 7 5591

I've been playing with Asterisk for a few weeks and it's working great. I have a question about getting multi-line receptionist phones working.

Hi List, I've had some issues with some VoIP providers where either: 1 - There is massive PDD but finally the call goes through 2 - There is massive PDD but the call gets rejected anyways I was wondering if there was a way to automatically detect such behaviors when it happens (maybe with a script or something) so I can take the faulty providers out of the routing and maybe automatically

Is there a way to specify multiple email addresses in voicemail.conf for a specific user? I seem to remember that it was possible, but can't remember the character to separate the email addresses. (I tried '&', but that didn't work...) later, PaulH

I need to carry a variable over into the 'h' priority - so I can go back and clean up DB entries in a mysql database (time of call and so on) I tried using UNIQUEID but it seems that 'h' generates a new one. Anyone have any ideas? What can I use to carry a variable over into 'h'?? later, PaulH

I am trying to send 'codes' over an isdn2 link - such as *#24# - to activate call forwarding. But it doesn't work. I have tried sending it as a straight dial, and also as a DTMF string...but no luck... I spoke to a telco tech and he said I had to send a facility code....huh? Anyone with any ideas on this one?
