Adam,
That's an interesting approach. I have a general question that arose
from your comment. You suggest using the h extension (or g option of
Dial) to reduce credit. What would happen if asterisk is restarted or
crashes with ongoing calls? Is there any trace of those calls in
order to reduce the time used? I assume you can't always guarantee
all calls will be handled gracefully.
Thanks,
Waldo

Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.
Use the manager API to terminate the call if their credit reaches
zero,
connect and process active channels on an regular basis (as
needed), use
the AGI to reduce the credit by the needed amount at the end of
the call
(from h extension, or g option to Dial).
Thanks Adam. This helps some, but I'm still not sure how you mean
for me to
acheive 1). I would have to perform a Dial-command no matter what,
so I guess
I would have to make an interruption from the manager API, but I
don't manage
to find a command that will acomplish that.
