Funny thing is I can get Asterisk to use the 's' extension as a
catch all (I use the include => xcontext command). But I needed
to describe it properly for chapter in a book I'm writing. Man
I hope I get this stuff right!

BTW, I'm using SIP extensions to do all my testing. Works great
(when I remember to include the correct contexts ;-)


exten => s is NOT a "catchall" it's more of a "catch nothing" i.e. it only catches calls that have no destination info. A "catchall" would be exten => _. but that would catch extensions that are not numbers (like o, i, t, T, h, etc). A catch all number extensions would be something like exten => _X.

Thanks, you just pointed out 2 huge mistakes on my part. The first
is what I thought 's' was for and the second is that my above
statement is untrue. I used the '_.' as the catch all. I'll correct
that. Again thanks!
